"Follow Me Monday" Coupon Organization!
It’s Monday and that means my second edition of “Follow Me Monday”! Today I’m going to discuss coupon organization! I had so many questions regarding this last week, so I thought I’d put your confusion to rest and describe in detail how I organize my coupons. Please keep in mind that the video is very long and will be quite boring if you already know how to organize your coupons, but for those of you that don’t, well, I hope it’s helpful. Also, if you have any other coupon organization tips, I’d love to hear about them in the comment section.
This is a 2 part video. The first part will be all about my favorite coupon organization method–the binder. The second part will be showing how I clip my coupons to save time. Plus, I’ll take you into Walmart and give you an idea of how much it will cost to make your own coupon binder.
Oh and I just want to quickly tell you why I don’t use a zippered binder (this part accidentally got cut out of the video). I first started out with a zippered binder, but I built up a nice coupon stash quite fast and was no longer able to zip it. To me the whole point of a zippered binder is to zip it, so your coupons don’t fall out. Plus, it was so bulky and very difficult to put in my purse. I finally realized that for me anyway, it made way more sense to just buy a normal binder. It fits in my purse nicely–which I show in the video and I’m able to pull out coupons without having to actually take the binder out of my purse. It works great!

Thank you so much for your videos, they have been a big help to me. I am a newbie and I am so happy my niece liked you on facebook and I checked you out. I am so excited about saving money and sharing with my family and friends.
This has cleared up A LOT of confusion I have had about couponing! Now, I feel confident I can start saving the money I so desperately need! Thank You Collin!
its a lot to learn
Thank you so much for the videos!! I’m also a military wife in your area so the commissary videos are very helpful, well they ALL are very helpful! I now know how to make my binder! Thanks Collin!
Thanks for your videos they are so helpful. Really like the purse idea!!! Where did you get yours its perfect for my 3inch binder. Thanks!!
Thank you for the videos. The part about the binder and baseball cards was invaluable
The info you provide is priceless!!! I have started couponing a few times now and would give up within a week! The tips you offer are brilliant! I feel much more prepared this time around and I am excited to get started. Thanks
How do I get multiple inserts?
You can get the baseball card pages used at a hobby/comic book store for $.10 a page!!! there is one in downtown Jax NC
Couple questions….
1) Do you use a computer to organize and catorigize?
2) How do you deal with the experation dates?
3) Just HOW do you do this? Do you decide in advance by looking at your pantry/fridge/freezer what is needed and write it down on a list? Then when you see what you need, do you go through your coupons?
4) Do you take advantage of double coupon days or do you look at store advertisements to see what’s on sale? How do you work that into the whole prcoess?
Thank you Colin. I’ve only been couponing for a couple of months and I have been using a change purse. I knew I needed a new system because I’m getting too many to fit in it, but I didn’t know where to start.
