Thought I would post my binders, well actually they are CD holders. They were purchased for $3.00 each at Big Lots. Best $6.00 investment I ever made. They have lasted 5 years. I seldom have to fold a coupon and each pocket holds alot. One is food and one is non-food.
Let me say that I am not that organized. What organization skills I do have must have come from my Aunt Glo, she is THE most organized person ever!!
Anyway, some people use different filing methods but I find this works for me. I clip and file everything because I learned the hard way, you never know when your going to run into a manager's special or a clearance. We live in a rural area so running home to get my coupons and running back to the store is not an option, especially with gas prices.
The binders get cleaned out once a month and I file every Sunday evening.
The first picture is the filing system for rebates. I have it on a little desk in the dining room, every time I return from the store the receipts are put in a draw. It gets cleaned out once every 3 to 5 months. I love rebates especially when the item was free to begin with!!
