Saving Money Mommy's Tuesday Tip- Coupon Organization
My tip for today is to find a way of organizing coupons that is right for you. We all have different ways of organizing our coupons. I used to sit there on Monday morning and clip for hours, but I don't clip the coupons anymore until I need them. I have an old Sams Club Baby Wipes box that is 8" X 13 1/2". I put the date on top of all the coupon inserts and place them in the box each week. When I do a shopping list I work from Hot Coupon World. It tells me where I can find the coupon. I take the insert out of the box and cut the coupon then. If I happen to see a good deal but don't have the coupon, I buy it anyway. I then take my receipt back to the store with my coupon and the store gives me cash. Check with your store first to see if they allow this. I also have a big coupon filing box that looks like a tackle box. I keep my home mailer coupons, internet coupons, peelies, tearpads, etc. in there sorted by category. I take that on every shopping trip. There is a great article on coupon organization here.
