    Default Organize Your Coupons

    Okay, I was considering putting this under the organization challenge, but decided that even if you aren't interested in decluttering and organizing your entire house, most of us here do use coupons and those coupon binders, boxes, bins, folders, wallets, etc. can ALWAYS stand to be cleaned out and organized.

    While waiting (forever) for dh to get off the computer tonight, I went through my coupon box and first pulled out all of the expired coupons. Then, I filed all of the coupons that I clipped for myself from yesterdays inserts. It feels so good to see it full of useable coupons and nice and orderly, I keep opening it up just to look at the pretty coupons!

    So, why don't you do it too? Even if you don't have the time to go crazy, at least purge one or two categories of your coupons. Whether you organize alphabetically and can purge A-B tonight or whether you do it according to product type and can purge cleaning items and dairy products, DO SOMETHING!!! It won't take too long and you'll feel better when you're done. I promise.

    I have some loose in my bag not filed. I am off now to file them while I watch some tv! I can only work on them when the baby is napping or asleep! She loves to help
