My question is, what do I do with the printable coupons? Do I go ahead and cut all those and file them or is there a way to file them similarly to filing the inserts? I want to do this in a way that makes sense but I feel like I'm drowning in paper. :)Jennifernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7190015557376477173.post-77317330620287467312009-12-30T15:56:23.724-05:002009-12-30T15:56:23.724-05:00I have a huge binder of coupons, but I've been...I have a huge binder of coupons, but I've been thinking of switching over to just filing the inserts. My problem is that I clip the coupons and don't file them and they stack up for weeks. Then when I need some, I have to flip through a ton of clipped coupons.Colleennoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7190015557376477173.post-5982592218985547802009-12-30T12:32:53.272-05:002009-12-30T12:32:53.272-05:00Thanks so much for this info.

Often I'll visit Coupon Mom's database, sort by date, and see if there are any valid coupons that remain in the old inserts. If not, I'll recycle the whole stack with that date.Bargains to Bountyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09151207861710376233noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7190015557376477173.post-50318183763516735322009-12-30T09:32:51.807-05:002009-12-30T09:32:51.807-05:00How long do I need to keep the coupon sections?

I get one paper delivered to my home and that is it. I find it much easier, because I shop on Friday's to then Monday morning search for coupons I need on ecoupons. If there is a big insert though I will get an extra paper or two. This weekend I will get two extra papers. I have to clip my coupons I have a slightly photographic memory and it works better for me that way. So getting one insert and then going to ecoupons helps not have tons of extras I won't need by getting extra papers.Staying Leanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05144254858061633899noreply@blogger.com
