Coupon Toolkit

Being organized is practically a prerequisite for finding great deals. I remember the first few times I went out with my coupons - I was a mess. Trying to shuffle through hundreds of different coupons in a stack to find the one I wanted, then not being prepared at the register, all the way to total embarrassment for not knowing the store’s coupon policy. Mistakes when you coupon cost you money and the best way to not make mistakes is to get organized!

I purchased all my items from Amazon and have links below. I love the benefits of my Amazon Prime Membership because it gives me access to free 2-day shipping on everything Amazon sells. Nothing better than (nearly) instant gratification.



Mobile Toolkit


Coupon Protector/Organizer Sheets


50ct 3-Pocket Currency/Coupon Size Binder Pages

It took me a while to find the right way to keep my coupons organized and visible. I really like these “currency protector” sheets because they hold a web-printed coupon perfectly and open at the top rather than the side.

3-Ring Binder

Wilson Jones Round Ring View Binder, 1 Inch, Basic, Black, 4 Pack (W70362-14BPP)

These 1” binders work great. I keep one for each store I visit and print a copy of the store coupon policy to keep with me in case I need to reference it while I’m out.

Dividers


Avery Durable Pre-Printed Plastic Dividers with Pockets, 6-Tab Set, 1 Set (11295)

I divide my binders up into six main categories:
  1. Coupon Policy
  2. Groceries
  3. Personal Care
  4. Beauty
  5. Cleaning Supplies
  6. General Household

Scissors/Mesh Pouch


Fiskars 8 Inch The Original Orange-Handled Scissors


Filexec Products Soft Touch Scissor/Pencil Pouch (18281)

I keep a pair of scissors in my binder to give me an easy way to clip on the go. I store them in a mesh pouch.

Home Kit

At home, I have a few more tools that I use to keep me organized and aid in my coupon adventures:

Label Maker

DYMO LabelWriter 450 Turbo Thermal Label Printer


DYMO LabelWriter 4XL Thermal Label Printer

I use both the Dymo 450 and the Dymo 4XL. If I was going to have just one, I would go with the 4XL since it gives you maximum flexibility on the size of label you want to make.

Paper Cutter

Swingline Guillotine Paper Trimmer, ClassicCut Lite, 12" Cut Length, 10 Sheet Capacity

Clipping coupons with your household scissors isn’t practical at home. I use this large paper cutter to make it easier.

Printer


HP LaserJet Pro P1102w Wireless Monochrome Printer

Investing in a good laser printer is a great way to maximize your time and save on ink costs. I love this HP LaserJet because its super compact and you can print right from your mobile device.

Recycle Bin


Rubbermaid Commercial Slim Jim Recycling Container with Venting Channels, Plastic, 23 Gallons, Blue

You’re going to have a lot of paper waste from trimming your coupons, so be sure to do the right thing and recycle your trimmings.

Mobile Cart


Rubbermaid Commercial Plastic 3-Shelf Service Cart, Black

I keep all my coupon stuff on a mobile cart so that I can put it away when not in use.

Organizer Trays


Sterilite Slim Storage Tray, White, 24-Pack

I love these organizer trays because they’re sized perfectly for coupons. I usually sort my coupons before I put them in my mobile binder.

Power Strip


TRIPP LITE Surge Protector Strip Desk Mount, Dual USB, 6 Outlet, 6-Foot Cord, 120V

I have a power strip mounted to the side of my cart so that I can just plug in one cord for everything on the cart. It even has a couple USB ports for my iPhone and iPad when I running low on power.
