How I Organize My Coupons

There are so many ways to organize your coupons. I've tried all the methods. I had a binder for a while, but it takes soooooooooooooooooooo much time. So I thought I would share my method with you.

The main source of coupons is the newspaper. I used to cut out every single coupon (4 sets) and put them in my binder or box. That was taking me 2 or so hours a week! So I decided to keep all my inserts intact. I do cut out the coupons I know I will definitely use. I store my inserts by date in my coupon closet.

I get about 20 or so inserts a week. I have a lot of friends and family that save them for me.

I organize all my cut out coupons by category and file them in this tackle box I got at Walmart for $4.97. When picking out your box, I suggest you throw it on the floor a few times to make sure it doesn't pop open. This box passed the test!



I use index card dividers to separate the categories. The box fits perfectly in a reusable bag from Publix!

I also carry 2 organizers in my purse. My first organizer is for my CVS cards, store specific coupons and coupons for free items.



The second oraganizer is where I organize my coupons for my shopping trips. I make anywhere from 2 to 4 trips to Publix a week so I gave each one it's own pocket. I also have my restaurant coupons in the back.



So there you have it! That's how I stay organized. If you have any questions, let me know!
