Okay, the long awaited “How to organize your coupons”  video is finally here.  You all get to come into my little office so I can show you a few ways to keep those coupons organized and easy to use. I’m a little nervous, I hope you all like it.  If not, be nice…I tried   And I probably should have waited till I lost my 15 lbs but I’ve been trying to do this for quite a while and who knows how long it will take to lose 15 lbs.

A couple of notes before you view:

1. Sorry that it’s not perfectly clear.  It took us all day to get this going.  We are just not technically inclined that way.
2. I say there are 5 inserts with 3 Smart Source & 3 Red Plum.  I obviously can’t add and talk at the same time.  There are 3 Smart Source & 2 Red Plum.

I hope you enjoy the videos and find them useful.  Below is a list of the divider labels I use for my coupon binder.
