I appreciate your comment. I think your point is valid and one of the reasons why we've been thinking of using a binder. I think we have a lot of coupons that expire (lost in our inserts) that could be put to good use. I also agree in clipping only the ones you will use. Otherwise, it just becomes too much of a time waster. Thanks again. Steph, this is good to know. I appreciate your comment.

Tue, 23 Feb 2010 15:12:48 +0000 http://onemoneydesign.com/blog/?p=4460#comment-3225 Thanks for sharing these options. As a long-time couponer, I like the second option, the binder method, better. Just because I can match the coupons to the sales does not mean that's the only time I would use a coupon. If I run out of something that I use regularly and need to replenish, I would need any applicable coupons, regardless of whether or not they are on sale. And, I would not want to go through insert after insert looking for them. That said, I don't clip out every coupon, only those I know we will use (for products we normally buy or products I want to try). As a professional organizer, I would tend to lean towards the second option for most of my clients as well. If a system is not super easy, it won't get used. Thanks for sharing, Steph Thanks for sharing these options.
