Organizing Coupons - Fort Stewart,GA

I divided mine into sections with dividers (bread, dairy, frozen foods, etc) - however it works for you. Then I put 1 coupon per pocket. I try to put the expiration date where I can see it. If I have more than one IDENTICAL coupon, I put the others behind the first one. If anything at all is different on the coupon - it gets it's own pocket. I didn't try to group them inside dividers. I just add the newest coupons to any empty pockets in that section. It's easy to go through and pull all expired coupons or to see if I have some that need to be used pretty quick. When I am shopping I pull the ones I am using and put in an envelope at the front of my binder. Oh - and when I am making my list I put the coupon and amount next to the item so I know I have it. I don't pull it yet in case I don't use it. Have fun organizing !

Sort by date, don't bother changing positions. If you sort by date or expiration you know which ones you need to use soonest, you could also do it by both category and expiration, get some binder dividers as well and label those with the category and then within each category organize by expiration.

I write the exp. date right on the coupon when I clip it. This was they are visible. Otherwise, it takes so much time to recheck them.

Then, I sort them into envelopes by category.

At night, I sit with the flyers laid out on the area rug and pull them accordingly. I paper clip them to my grocery list and put it in my pocketbk.

One of the grocery stores nearby, has the flyer out for the upcoming week. I always take that 1, too.

I get ready for 2 wks at the same time.

I only clip coupons that I use. I recycle the rest.

I really only do major shopping at one store, so I organize my coupons (I also use the sheet protectors in a binder) by aisle / order of the store. That way I snake my way up and down the isles and never need to go backwards. Good luck!
