Walmart, Homeland and a Tip!

Tip of the day:
Where do I keep these coupons or organize them so I can easily find the deals you are mentioning?  "Well, I have manilla folders that I put each week's inserts in.  I label the outside of the folders with the date the coupon inserts were found in the newspaper.  I do this in pencil so I can erase and use the folders over and over.   I have a file cabinet that I keep my folders in but you can use a plastic container like Rubbermaid or even a cardboard box will work.  The file cabinet  stays in my garage but you could use a closet, laundry room or home office.  Having your coupons organized this way saves so much time because you don't have to cut out every single coupon.  When you see a deal listed on the blog telling you where to find the coupon, you just flip through your folders, find the right date and cut out your coupon!  Keep your inserts for at least 8 months.  I know that sounds crazy but some coupons don't expire up to a year and you never know what's going to be on sale a few months down the road.  I was able to get Dole canned fruit for $.25 each because I had kept my inserts from 4 months back that had Dole coupons in them.  Use what ever system works for you as long as your coupons are organized and easy to locate." --http://www.consumerqueen.com/coupons-2/getting-started
