Couponing 101 - Binder

I keep my binder organized into different binders within one binder using a Case-It Binder

I use baseball card holders to hold the coupons

 

Information Binder

In the front pocket I keep a calculator, scissors, foldable reusable shopping bag, pens, little notebook, pencils, paperclips and an envelope to collect Boxtops in.

I then have a pencil pouch where I keep my "store envelopes" (Envelopes for coupons I plan to use during that trip), and store rewards.

List of the stores I frequent contact information, store hours, and corporate numbers

List of coupon websites, blogs, forums, etc.

Then, divided by sections: ( I keep store ads in each of these sections as well)
