Week 3 - Start - Organize Coupons

So my coupon organizing project this week will hopefully help me with my menu planning project for a future week.

I coupon. I'm not an extreme couponer. I'm not sure you can even do that in Canada like you see on TV. I'm not a stockpiler either, unless there's a really good deal and it won't go bad before I use it and I have the space in my tiny apartment to store it.


I currently have a bunch of coupons I've gotten from inserts and online stuffed into a small accordion file that I keep in my car. If I don't leave it in my car, I forget it and I usually forget it in my car as well.

I never said I was a good couponer!



I looked at a bunch of storage ideas from binders to big accordion files and even bigger boxes and settled on a variation of the binder idea. I want to be able to take it into the store but not look like I've come from school. I picked up a half sized binder (8.5" x 5.5" ) and pocket protectors and a day-timer monthly planner refill.


It's a bit bigger than the accordion file, but still portable. Lets see if this will work for me!
