==Products== [[Image:myfilofax.jpg|thumb|right|A Filofax organiser]] [[File:Interior of WH Smith, Market Place, Pontefract (7th April 2023) 003.jpg|thumb|right|Filofax branded and compatible inserts and Filofaxes on sale in [[WHSmith|WH Smith]] in [[Pontefract]].]] The name originates from an abbreviation of the phrase "file of facts". This name for the product was first coined when the UK company was founded in 1921. The popularity of the Filofax personal organiser grew enormously during the early 1980s due to its association with [[Yuppie]] culture, where it was regarded as a "must-have" accessory, in the days before [[electronic organiser]]s. A range of insert page formats are sold, including calendars, notesheets, password lists and a thin calculator.<ref>Amazon https://www.amazon.co.uk/Filofax-B134011-Personal-Calculator/dp/B001N356U2</ref>
