I Made a Coupon Binder!!
Yay me! I finally made a coupon binder. It needs some work but it already easier to find the coupons than the system I had before! I divided it into 8 different sections. I will probably do more but have to get more dividers. Plus I have to get a zipper binder. Everyone that has a coupon binder recommends using the zipper kind so I will get one of those soon. But this will do the job until I can get one! It took me all morning to organize all my coupons! And I still haven't finished clipping the coupons from yesterdays papers! But I'm hoping it will be VERY worth it when I go grocery shopping this week. :))

Oh man, I desperately need a new system for my coupons, mine are all in one of those small accordion envelope things and they fall out all the time! Let me know how it works out!
ReplyDeleteI just did this last week, and have t say i reverted back to my accordian. i had to fold every one of my coupons and i couldnt read what they said. and then i had to deal with a huge binder and a 1 year old in the store. HA! I hope you have better luck than i do with it!
ReplyDeleteMegan..I am nervous about the fact that I will have my one year old in the cart with me while trying to go through the binder! I'll update on how it goes haha
ReplyDeleteCongrats! You have more patience than I do! LOL! I would love to be able to coupon like that, but it doesn't happen with my 2 kids! :)
ReplyDeleteI have honored you on my blog. Hope you can check it out.

PS: where do you get your coupons? I've been trying to start using coupons I just don't know where to find them (besides the Sunday paper)
Congrats to you...I'll be interested to hear how you like the binder vs. the accordian file. I still use an accordian file right now, and it works for me, but lots of people swear by the binder!
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to hear!
Sophia- I get my coupons in the Sunday paper! I've actually printed very few online. But you can go to places like coupons.com and print coupons. But I get most of mine from the paper. Keep in mind the bigger the paper, the more coupons you'll get :)
ReplyDeleteOh and thank you so much for the awards!! :))
ReplyDeleteI've been using the binder (a zippered one) with a 15 month old and it gets easy after a few times out with him, I sort through using the end of the cart ha ha. Unfortunately I have so many coupons that the binder weighs more than my son and I now need to upgrade to a larger binder... it's much better than an accordian file, but still has it's negatives. Hope you like it
