Couponing... Starting the Journey.



Couponing:  Starting the Journey!

 Organize your coupons!!!  If your coupons are organized, you will use them!  Having poorly organized coupons can be the one thing that stops you from getting that amazing deal.  There is no right or wrong way to organize your coupons.  It’s all about personal preference.  Here are a few ways that you can organize your coupons.  Choose the way that would best suit you, or even create your own way.

·        Filing method- Get a letter sized accordion organizer and file your coupon inserts, sheet by sheet, according to category.  You can also get a wallet sized organizer.  Divide the organizer into categories, clip your coupons, and file.
·        No clip method- Get a binder, fill with sheet protectors, separate each page of your coupon inserts, and file like sheets in a sheet protector.  Clip coupons when you are ready to use them.
·        Binder method- (This is my personal choice and favorite!)  Get a 3-ring binder, tab dividers, and baseball card holders 9can be found at most craft stores and sports stores. You can also order these online).
Create a tab for your different categories (Refrigerated, frozen, cabinet, medication, toiletries, etc…)  Clip the coupons and place them in the baseball card holders (place like coupons in same pouch) and put in correct category.
