Step 1
Buy a small accordion file for you to store your coupons for grocery shopping in. This is an envelope type file that has individual compartments for you to short your grocery coupons into. You do not have to choose one that is specially made for coupons, an inexpensive one out of the home and office section of your local store will work just as well.

Step 2
Label each section of the accordion file with different areas of the house that you buy things for using grocery coupons. You can even breakdown the sections even further by having one compartment for each type of food in your kitchen. This will give you easy to use sections to place all of your coupons for grocery shopping.

Step 3
Place all of your grocery coupons into the correct labeled section as soon as you clip or print them out. This is the best way to stay organized when it comes to your coupons for grocery shopping. When you are ready to go grocery shopping, you will easily be able to find the coupons for the items on your shopping list. This will save you a lot of time fumbling with a stack of grocery coupons every time you want to go to the store.
