Alright, alright…I admit it. My coupons have been somewhat disorganized for months. Gasp…I’m glad I’ve got that off my chest. :)

Although my husband is glad to have all the coupons cleaned up that have been invading what seemed like every corner of our house, I don’t think there is anyone who could understand more than you guys how excited I am to say….all of my coupons are now 100% ORGANIZED! YAY!

If you have taken one of my Couponing Classes lately you know that I have been in the process of switching over how I organize my non-insert coupons (Blinkies, printables, peelies etc.). Well, I’ve been waiting and waiting to find a decent price on the baseball card inserts that I needed for my binder. I finally found a great price on Amazon a few weeks ago.

It has taken me a little while to get motivated, but once I finally did it wasn’t that bad and only took me a few hours to get everything cleaned up. I will admit that the fact that we have 5 family members staying with us from out of town this week helped a bit with the motivation. :) Either way, I am so excited to have it all finished and it has made my shopping preparation a lot more pleasant!

I asked the Bargain Blessings Facebook fans to rate their coupon organization on a scale of 1-10 (with 10 being the best) and they averaged a 6.92 grade…not bad! So now, I ask you…how would you grade your coupon organization and which method do you use? Now that I’m all organized I have to say that I’m very happy with my entire system and I’d rate it a 9.5. I’m still using my clipless method for my insert coupons and I love that. Now that I’ve got all the other random coupons under control I don’t think it could get much better!

Good for you, Jennie, to get all of your coupons organized! Did you create dividers in your big binder to organize your coupons into categories?

Hi I just recently switched oveer to the coupon binder that you are using. Congratulations on getting your coupons finally organized. I am in the process of getting all of mine organized (not quite there yet though, but it sure does make couponing so much easier whe nyou are organized. I was wondering though what is and how do you get the white sheets behind your coupon baseball inserts in order so that the coupons doe not al blend into each other, Thanks so much and thanks for the link on Amazon for the inserts. Great price! Beth

Hey Beth~ Good Question! :) I use alphabetical insert dividers. I cannot remember where I got them, but I know they have them at most office supply stores! :)
