Step 2 will be continued tonight as I explain 2 quick ways of organizing coupons. I think these ways are the fastest and the easiest.

1. File box System
-Materials - File box, File Folders, Marker
a. Mark the file folders with Sunday's Date
b. Write the date on the front of the inserts and Put the full inserts in the File Folders
c. Read my Weekly Ads to pull coupons that match up to the sales.
So Easy!



2. Accordion File
-Materials - small accordion file (can be found on the dollar isle sometime), pen, scissors
a. Label you accordion file dividers (if not already done so) with categories of your choice (some do this by isles in the grocery store or by what is bought most often in their family, etc.)
b. cut out coupons you will definitely use
c. file coupons
d. Go shopping :)
