ok... so i already have the baseball card insert things for coupons, which i love! but what about all the other coupons that are way too big to fit in. i know that some people fold their coupons until they fit, but i'm not a fan of this because then you have to take them out every time to check expiry dates etc.
right now i'm using page protectors but all the coupons fall to the bottom and are all messy, and sometimes fall out the top if my binder gets tipped upside down.
i would love an insert that has 4x6 spaces, but the only ones i've found go in those tall photo albums and won't fit in a regular sized binder.
what does everyone use for bigger coupons? and are reg sized 4x6 inserts available somewhere? i've looked everywhere!
thanks!This thread is currently associated with: N/A

I don't know where you get them but there are pages similar to the baseball card ones that are 3 pockets instead of 9, used by coin collectors to put paper money in.

Mrsb07 sent me a link to order some online, but first maybe i will have to check an office depot store or something. i live in a small town in ontario, so no london drugs. so far i've checked walmart and a couple different dollar stores, so next time i go to a city i'll have to check some other stores.

I made my own out of the page protectors. Only because I couldn't find the card collector pages anywhere.
It takes a little bit of work but is easy to do and still works.
Put a piece of cardboard inside your page protector, use a ruler and an exacto knife to cut through one side of the page protector. (I divided my page into 3 horizontal strips each about 3.5 inches in height.
(Remove the Cardboard after you have made your cuts. To make sure I had even spaces, I marked a line on the cardboard with a ruler and marker)
Then I ran them through my sewing machine. Once vertically down the middle of the page and then once above each of the two horizontal cuts that I made.
Finished.
I ended up with page protectors that have 6 pockets each.
If you want 4x6 pockets, just divide your page protectors in 2 both ways.
The readymade pocket pages would definately be a better way to go, but if you can't find them, this will work.Trade List /Wishlist: http://forum.smartcanucks.ca/382792-dreamcatcher1962s-trade-wish-lists-canada/#post5928904

I went to the dollar store and got a mini plastic file folder, it fits in my purse. (It's the one that has a divider for every month of the year. I just labeled them according to the type of coupons I have.
Very easy to use and maintain.

Have you tried a Dollarama? I believe I've seen them there before.
Could you find it in your heart to help out a single mother in need. Any donation would be forever appreciated. If you could share the page through the link that would be wonderful too! Thanks so much.
