I will be posting several methods of coupon sorting.. this is the method I use most. Any questions ask away!

  1. thats really helpful. Where do you get all of your coupons? and it looks like you sort them in many categories. how do you keep track of them all? (meaning KNOW what you have?)

  3. I buy the Sunday papers.. we have 2 here.. I also get my bulk from a friend who gets leftovers... You can go to your local recycling center, ask neighbors, friends etc as well to get extras. or even just buying 10-20 copies each week of the paper.. if you end up saving $100+ a week then $10-20 investment is worth it

  4. One Sunday, there were no coupons in it! :(

    thats a good idea, Nicole! I may buy a few copies/week just to start.

    My original post had a question in it.
    I also notice that your accordion style method looks like a mini lunch cooler... is that right? Looks very organized.
