Organizing Coupons
At you at a loss with whatyou should do with coupons once you've cut them out and have a heap on your kitchen or diningroom table.
There are many ways you can organize them.
You can orgnize them by type. You put all the coupons for the same type of thing togehter. All the coupons for clenaing products go together, all the coupons for dairy products go togethr, all the coupons for drug store type of products (hair care, deodorant, etc.) go togehter. You get the idea. I organize mine by type.
Some organize by expiration date.
Some organize by the layout of their supermarket and what they will need in each aisle.
You can buy coupon orgnizers which have pre-marked separators and some extras for you to put your own section on.
You can put them all into a plastic colored envelope so you can find them easily.
You can put each type of coupon into a zipper plastic bag of its own and then put all of them into a larger zipper type plastic bag so you've got them all together.

I use a three ring binder with clear baseball card holders, then you separate it into the categories you use...Refrigerated, canned, paper goods, retaurants, clothing, etc.
It works great because you can see the front and back of many coupons. Just fold in a way you can see the expiration easily.
