OXFORD brand quadrille (available many places) cards are some kind of joke--1mm thick blue lines, start of grid varies from card to card, etc. Bah! Better off using blank white card, use a template to align card type box code. Plain white card is arguably better than grid--no restrictions ;) By the way, I have tweaked PoIC/43Tabs system thus: love to use Filofax Pocket Executive (corresponds to Japanese MINI size agenda--like DaVinci or Maruman); I have six-hole punch, so guess what? I keep 10-15 punched blank 5 x 3 index cards in my Filofax, which also has week-on-a-page calendar. Or I keep 5 operational index cards, 10 blanks, etc. All in one place, and can still be filed in my dock after completion.

Cheers! I’m not sure if it is different in Japan, but in the US, it is ‘Office Depot,’ not ‘Office Depo.’
