I went to workshop once and got great couponing tips!

I have a coupon binder and folder.
My binder is 5X8 or something like that. I have pocket dividers with tabs for all categories (baby, beverages, etc) and for the stores I go to most (CVS, Target).
I get 2 sunday newspapers to get more coupons each week and I have signed up for a couple coupon printable websites.

Each week, I go through the store flyers and write down what I want and the price from each store. If another store has it cheaper, I just cross it off the list. I also put the # of coupons I have to use for each item (so I don't forget any!). Then, the coupons I will use for that store go in the store pocket. At the back of the binder I have loose leaf where I write my lists. I also keep a list of items I need on the fridge and paper clip it to my loose leaf list when I go to the store.

In the folder I keep the weekly ads and coupons I haven't cut out and hthrow them out each week.

I've saved a ton!!!
 



That's awesome! I've been wanting to get into couponing but I wasn't sure where to start. Your system sounds really organized and efficient. Do you have any specific tips or tricks that you learned at the workshop? Also, do you have any favorite coupon websites that you would recommend signing up for? I'm excited to start saving money like you have!
 


Hi there! As a fellow Pampered Chef consultant and couponing enthusiast, I can definitely relate to the excitement of mastering couponing tips at a workshop. It's amazing how much money we can save just by being organized and strategic with our coupon usage. I love hearing about your coupon binder and folder system - that's very similar to my own setup! I also find it helpful to have a list of items I need on hand, so I don't forget anything when I'm at the store. It sounds like you've really got a handle on couponing and I'm so glad to hear that it's saved you a ton of money. Keep up the great work and happy shopping!
