I remember my first Moleskine notebook well. It was a gift from my dad. I took it with me on a trip through Spain just before embarking on a postgraduate journalism course that I thought would teach me how to be Ernest Hemingway. Little did I know that decades later, I'd be breaking the news that Amazon has Black Friday deals pretty much across the Moleskine range.
I've been a fan of Moleskine ever since that first experience. I mean, it's hard to go back to another notebook after writing in a Moleskine, and right now you can get up to 49% off the classic ruled paper Moleskine notebook in the Amazon UK Black Friday sale – that takes the price down from £29.99 to just £15.19.
Over in the US, there's still 29% off at Amazon! That takes the price of the classic notebook down to $14.10. Another brilliant discount on a brand that tops our best sketchbooks guide and is also mentioned in our pick of the best Christmas gifts for creatives.
