Coupons can be a great way to save money. The problem is actually having them when you need them. I used to use those accordion style organizers but they are not practical for me when I am at the store with my two girls. I took an old 3 ring binder that I had lying around the house and filled it with photo sheet protectors. I can easily slide my coupons into each individual space. They are readily available when I need them and I can pull out any that have expired. You can use tabbed dividers to organize it into sections. Label them however works best for you. Mine are labeled cleaning products, places to go, health and beauty, girls, and store specific. Under my store specific are coupons that are just for a certain store like Target or The Childrens Place. Under girls you will find pull ups coupons or coupons for their favorite snack foods. The places to go area is for coupons for Mountasia, bowling, or Braves game coupons. This binder stays in my car so it is always available for me when I get to the store. While I am sitting in the car pool lane at Caitlin's school I go through the binder either adding more coupons or pulling expired ones. Get creative and make a designer cover for your book and you have your very own custom product.
Happy Organizing!
