Hi! I am Mercedes and this is my blog Common Sense with Money! Helping other people live better, spend less, and save more is something I am very passionate about. I combine simple frugal living tips and smart shopping techniques to help moms across the U.S. become better home economists. Thank you for visiting my blog.

Mercedes: I listened in today for the first time. If anyone does come up with a good way to organize their coupons, I would be interested in knowing what they do. I have a pile of uncut coupons and another pile of cut ones. What a mess. Also since I’m very new at this coupon stuff. I’m interested to know about you die hard coupon cutters. When you go to the store for item, how many are you buying? I usually have only one coupon so I’m only buying one thing. (Just curious) How do you get multiple coupons? I just realized a couple of days ago that some of the online coupons could be printed twice. Thanks.
In order to organize coupons I have a note card box that is organized by food categories, such as dairy, meats, snacks. And then I categorize it even further with milk, cheese, meats, bread, etc., that way it is all organized and when you go to buy something you can find it easily.
im planning to listen to it…unfortunately for many thirld world countries computers do not have in built speakers so one has to either listen to webcasts at home or just do with the reading bit!
I organize my coupons in a zippered binder, using divider tabs and baseball trading card sheets to hold the coupons. Each coupon has it’s own slot. This was I can see every coupon as I flip through the pages. Sorry I haven’t blogged about it (no pictures), but I know other people have similar methods.
Tara and I are planning on having a show on coupon organization fairly soon.
