I have gotten out of the habit of couponing. My old system just wasn't working for me anymore. I really wanted to try the binder/baseball card holder system but since I'm doing the Dave Ramsey thing I don't have a lot of extra cash. My good friend Erin sent me her binder/baseball card system and I got it in the mail a few days ago.
The binder itself is pretty awesome. Loads of places for pens/scissors/small calculator. But do you see that huge pile of coupons? That will take some time to cut out.
See how I have this organized? It's broken up a lot more than my previous system. Also, I can take my binder with me so should I see something on sale I can just flip and see if I have a coupon. Sometimes stores don't always advertise all their sales. I hate it when I go to buy something... see that it's on sale and THEN remember that I have a coupon for it. At home.
If you don't see me for a few days it's probably because I am still cutting out coupons. :)
I have been looking for a better way to organize my coupons there is nothing worse than being in the store with 3 ready to get outta there kids and digging in sections for coupons for a specific thing this seems so much easier will be buying and making this sometime in the next week

So glad the binder arrived!!! I know you will love it as much as I did. It is a great system. Enjoy!
ReplyDeleteThe newspaper I used to work at has this wonderful coupon program (other places in the country have picked it up because it is so awesome) and in the coupon class, the teacher advocates this method as the best way. I think it works pretty well for organizing.
ReplyDeleteI love this way. So I don't think you know me to well but I am in your ward at church which stores in the area are most coupon friendly? I just started up again. Also I don't know what your needs are but we can trade some coupons because I don't need all of them.
