Hound Alert: I would love a few of these if anyone has extras: Iams $3/1 Palmolive .25/1 Planters $1.50/2 Kettle Brand $1/1 Ragu .50/1 Dove $1/1 Beauty Bar The only one of these in my inserts was the Iams Mawmaw: I can send you one 1 Planters, 1 Ragu and 1 Iams. PM me your address. I order coupons from ebay if it's only for a smoking hot deal. It's cheaper than buying so many newspapers, and most of the time we don't get the good coupons. And if the price is too steep, then I decline.

I got a whole boatload of coupons in one paper, unilever, two redplums, one of the coupon booklets has the first few pages dedicated to dog/cat stuff. It might be easier if anyone wants any then just ask me as I will have more I WON"T use than I will.
Alright now how to do I organize these bad boys?

Are there any apartment complexes near you, mawmaw? Many of them provide a trash can or recycle bin for people to throw away their unwanted mail, and nearly everyone throws away those coupon flyers. I get lots of extra RP and PG inserts that way. It doesn't solve the problem of the crap coupons in your area, but at least you'd be able to get more of them on the rare occasion they have something you want.

One is the binder method. You get a large three ring binder, and some of those plastic pages that you would use to organize baseball cards or business cards. You then clip all your coupons and file them in the binder, organized into categories (health/beauty items, cleaning items, etc). The benefit of that is that it's easy to take your coupons with you when you go shopping. If you find an unexpected deal or clearance item, you have your coupons available. The biggest drawback is all the time involved in clipping, filing and cleaning out the binder, when you may or may not use a number of the coupons. Other option is full-insert file...(cont)

Coupon Organization ContinuedI keep my inserts intact and file them in full. The date of the inserts is listed on the "spine" along the side, and you can also write the date on the front of the insert so you know which is which. I keep 2 full-size file boxes with file folders in them, one folder for each date. Then I check a coupon database like this one to figure out which insert the coupon is in, clip it and go from there. You can find out more about this method (with pictures) on frugalsuz's blog: frugalsuz.blogspot.com/2009/05/coupon-organization-frugalsuz-style.html

At least some of y'all got the unilever......one of the 2 redplum inserts I got in the mail only had 1 or 2 coupons in it. I did not get ANY of the unilever. I just don't understand how this works!!! Makes me so !! I don't know if this makes sense, but 4 of the RP I received have the Unilever in them, the other 2RP has Purina on the front Look on the spine of the insert and see if the label is different.

Okay thanks, I also got a procter and gamble insert, I am exhausted cutting these all out. ;D naggie: You could save yourself a lot of time/effort by using the clip as you go method. In other words, you wait to clip most of what you'll use until you know you're going to use them. The database will tell you exactly which inserts you can go to to find what you need. Thus no clipping or filing and no purging after your coupons have expired.

ohiositter - PM me your addy. I have extra Hunts Qs for you. misspt - I have the pfizer MIR. Do you need anything else? There's also a $5 Colgate/Palmolive MIR WYB $10 worth of products in one transaction in today's SS. This will work GREAT with the speedstick deal at CVS this week. Buy 6, use 3 BOGOF Qs and get $6 EB - making everything free. Then submit for $5 MIR. Profit of $5 Well, Kroger was good to me today. I finally found the Cool touch & got 4 cool touch & 3 regular kleenex. Also got 9 Hunts tomatoes, 2 Franks sweet chilli sauce (i'm in love with this flavour), 2 mustard, Ortega taco shells $1.79 (had $1 peelie) and 10 Bic pen packs. My OOP was $8.xx and got back $2 Kleenex CAT. When I checked my receipt earlier, I noticed that all 5 Kleenex Qs doubled (not just 3 as stated at the registers). That means my Kleenex were all FREE Our Metro newspaper, delivers a free set of Q inserts to our homes every week. Ruby - I looked for Kraft blinkies for you at Kroger today, but the machine was empty :-( Lena - which LOL Q are you looking for? I know they have various products.

Great WAGS score Saveinla!
I'm excited to watch Real Housewives tonight. They're visiting Cape Town in this episode. I'm gonna get homesick just seeing the familiar sights. How I miss seeing Table mountain & the ocean from my office window every day.

How I miss seeing Table mountain & the ocean from my office window every day. Thanks pubbler. Which RH is this - OC or NY? If Vicks Sinex is included in the target deal, then you should be able to make it a bigger MM if you still have the 4$ off Vicks sinex Qs from the battery pack Qs.

Yeah, probably doing it old style. Used to cut coupons when the kids were little, I think we must have got a bonanza today because I don't ever remember spending so long cutting coupons.
