On Coupon Organization

|
I began using coupons about a year ago. As I've changed my shopping habits, I've also had to change the way that I organize my coupons. When I first started to use coupons, I only bought one newspaper a week and didn't really do many of the grocery deals. I was mostly using coupons for my trips to CVS, so every week I would clip them all and organize them according to their type.

My current system is drastically different. I usually buy at least 4 or 5 papers a week and sometimes as many as 10.

First, I sort the different inserts:

Then, I sort the pages so that all the identical pages are together:
Next, I put staples through the pages where the coupons are (I usually staple at least two coupons per page and try to make at least one of those on an item I think I'll use).
Once all the pages have been sorted in this manner, I put the stapled pages into a clear sleeve with a clip on top (to prevent any pages from falling out). I also write the date of the insert on the front page. Those sleeves go into a three ring binder.
Having all of the identical coupons stapled together is extremely helpful, especially when I'm preparing for one of the grocery store promotions.

The downside is that I can't really take advantage of any deals that I might just happen upon because I only carry the coupons that I know that I can use with me. This is actually just fine with me, though, because I often am shopping with at least one small child, so realistically I'm not able to shop for anything that I haven't planned for.

What method do you use to organize your coupons?

Shoppers Triple Coupons 1/22 - 1/28

|

Shoppers is tripling coupons starting today and ending on the 28th! Be sure to check out your stores weekly circular here to be sure that they are participating. For this promotion, their ad states:

Unlimited Triple Manufacturer's Coupons up to $.99
On any single item, please limit yourself to four manufacturer's coupons. If the value of the triple coupon exceeds the retail price of the item, you will receive the item free.

I'm kind of disappointed that they aren't doing the double/triple promotion this time, but with all those $1/x coupons out there, this will probably make for an easier trip, inshaAllah (God willing).

You can find discussion of this deal here on Hot Coupon World.

Kmart Super Double Coupons 1/18 - 1/24

It's time for Super Double Coupons at Kmart!

It looks like for this round of super doubles some stores will be doubling up to $3! Unfortunately, for me, my store is only doubling up to $2 (I'm also assuming that not all stores are participating). To see what your store is doing, go here and enter your zip code.

For coupons at Kmart, there is a limit of four of any item using double coupons and a limit of 75 coupons per customer per day. They do not accept internet coupons.

There is discussion here on Slickdeals regarding what's free after coupon during doubles.

Did you know that you can regrow green onions?! After you've used green onion for whatever you're making, don't throw the root part away... put it in water and in about a week you'll have yourself homegrown green onions.

I got directions on how to regrow green onions from here.
