Coupon Organizer

 

June 21, 2011
 
I started couponing a couple years ago, but when we moved I stopped for a while.  Since we moved into our house, I started couponing again.  It is a hobby for me, I enjoy it and love spending time looking for deals.  On Sunday mornings I like to have my paper, ads and coffee.  I use a lot of coupon websites as well.  I am by no means an extreme couponer, as I am still learning!  I was using a mini accoridian file for my coupons.  This system was good, BUT everytime I was in the grocery store and wanted to see if I had a coupon for something not on my list (because I always pull out my coupons for items on my list prior to going to the store), it took FOREVER to find.  Yesterday I went to Hobby Lobby and bought a baseball card holder.  It is a portfolio with plastic sleeves.  I organized my coupons in that and it is so much better!!

One thing I started focusing on this week that I have not done in the past is looking at the drugstore deals.  I have RiteAid, Walgreens, and CVS all within 2 miles of my house, and from what I have read you can get a lot of great deals at these stores.  I am hoping to score some free stuff this week!
