coupon crazy...

now is as good a time as any to start being frugal, right? yesterday my co-worker whipped out the most adorable (and totally functional) coupon organizer from her purse...after seeing it i just had to get my very own. ironically, that same day i received a lot of great grocery coupons in the mail. i did a little research online last night as saw a few snazzy organizers i think would work...

jokari EZ coupon holder from organize.com

eco-friendly coupon organizer from glow girl on etsy

coupon keeper from c.r. gibson fine gifts


coupon organizer from paper posey

felt hand crafted coupon organizer from austin artisan on etsy

i'm still trying to figure out the best way to organize. i started to make divisions i thought would be best for me (alphabetical always seems to be the way to go in my opinion), but i would really like to condense the list...

1. baking/seasoning
2. baked goods
3. beverages
4. cleaning products
5. clothes
6. condiments/ dressings/ sauces
7. dairy
8. drugs/medicine/ toiletries
9. meats
10. paper goods
11. pasta
12. pet
13. vegetables/ fruits
14. miscellaneous

here are a few good websites & blogs to keep track of, they always post incredible savings...
