How to Make a Portable Coupon Organizer

Organize your coupons to save time and money.

Clipping coupons is a great way to save money on groceries and household items. However, once you collect a nice stock-pile of them, you will discover the need for adequate coupon organization. Make a portable grocery coupon organizer that will fit inside your large purse or tote so you can easily take it with you while shopping or planning.

Things You'll Need

• Clear baseball card holder sheets
• 3-ring binder
• Dividers
• Coupons

Instructions

1. Place the baseball card sheets into your binder, making sure the side with the pocket opening is facing up and to the top.

2. Label your divider tabs for each category you want to cover. For example, categories might include frozen foods, dairy, paper goods, cereals.

3. Insert the coupons into the sleeves as each category group (e.g., all produce together, all bread together). Add one or two blank holder sheets to each category so you have space to grow.

4. Add the appropriate dividers before their respective categories.

Tips & Warnings
