The Cost Of Privately Accumulating My Thoughts

I have mentioned in addition to this blog, I am writing in a journal called the Ten Year Project. I have 24 x 5 subject notebooks, 200 pages each, college ruled. I began on 1/1/2012 and will finish on 12/31/2021, but I have to say I finish on 1/1/2022 because technically it would be 9 years, 11 months, 4 weeks, 2 days instead of 10 years.

I never tracked the sum of purchasing 24 x 5 subject notebooks, 200 pages each, college ruled. I plan to have a "To-Be-Titled-Later" phase II that will begin on 1/1/2022 and include up to 12/31/2031 (or technically, 1/1/2032). How much am I investing in this project? Using the picture below


- and minus sales tax & shipping, these are my options:
  • My bill is $263.76 if I purchase 24 of the notebooks that are priced at $10.99 each.
  • My bill is $330.96 if I purchase 24 of the notebooks that are priced at $13.79 each.
  • My bill is $345.36 if I purchase 24 of the notebooks that are priced at $14.39 each.
There is $81.60 between going the $10.99 route and the $14.39 route. Currently, I do not plan to order 24 x 5 subject notebooks, 200 pages each, college ruled, in one purchase order... but if I did, would I get a discount?
