Become a coupon fairy and make someone's day?

I keep mine in a smal file folder that fits into my purse, organized by section.. grocery, dairy, household, health and beauty..., plus i have them entered into my blackberry in alphabetical order in those same catagories. I enter new coupons in when I get them and delete them when I use them in the store. I dont know how well this is going to work when I start collecting more of them, but for now it works. I'd love to be a binder lady, can't wait til I have that many haha

Wow, Andromedarl that is pretty good for you to be the orginized. I have only been doing it for 2 months and i all ready have a binder full of coupons. It takes no time to collect them

Same here. I can't imagine entering them into my phone though. I have way too many.

I got my coupon organizer at the Dollar Store! Really helps....and I am not quite ready for the BINDER yet!

I want to do a binder but i dont want to lug one around. I already have an extra heavy bag becuase of my 7 week old baby! (Plus baby!) LOL

I started a few months ago with the coupon organizer from the dollar store, but it was way too much work in the stores going through every coupon.... SO I did it, I bought a binder, got the plastic baseball card holders from the dollar store and WOW it's so much easier.. I have a two year old with me in the store and this is so much quicker!!! I organized them in catagories put tab dividers in them, and now it just takes a second to figure out what coupons I have !!

I bought a great binder and a bunch of hockey card holders..it's hilarious the looks on people's faces when they see me with my binder in the store! I am feeling overwhelmed by all of my larger coupons though...the tearpad ones don't fit in the hockey card holders, so I just have them paperclipped and stuck in a few zipper binder pockets..but I keep forgetting what I have because I can't see them when I'm shopping!

[MrsSunshine]

just a tip.. if you have a coin store/shop in your area. you can buy the sheets you can insert bills into.. or coin holders. a little larger than the hockey sheets.. works great for the paper flyers.. keep them cut nice and trim and they fit quite well.

Great tips! I am currently using envelopes but it is just not effective. I am going to get the coupon holders from the dollar store. they will fit in my clipboard when I shop.
