This is the coupon box that has served me faithfully for years and years. Probably at least 12. Maybe more. You can see I should have probably cleaned it up a bit, but I wanted to show it to you in it's "working" state. Unfortunately, in the past few months, I've been overwhelmed with coupons. Don't worry - it's a good thing! Figuring out how to get mutiple coupon inserts, printing off the internet, etc have all added up to me overflowing this box and nothing ever fitting right. So, I went in search of another system. The internet is filled with people who want to show you their coupon systems. I looked at several and finally decided on one that is very similar to what I was using, just better. I took all of my main catagories I had been using and added sub-catagories to them. Like in my Personal Care section, there is now a "dental" subsection, and so on. We'll just say it took some time to do this. But, I think so far it's well worth it in the time I'm going to save in looking for coupons. I did a trial run at Fry's the other day and it worked like a charm. Boy, it takes so little to make me happy! Maybe that's why I was thrilled when I got a full box of instant potatoes and a sample of Honey Nut Cheerios in the mail yesterday... along with some high value coupons to go get some more!

oooh la la
I keep getting tempted to do "the coupon thing" again. It's just so much work! I do love the high, though. Oh, and the savings are nice, too. :)
