I can’t even begin to tell you how long I have spent on this project. I don’t actually use a coupon binder myself but I know I am in the minority on that and lots of you consider your binders part of the family.
When you are new to couponing, one of the big hurdles to overcome is simply getting everything sorted out and organized. So hopefully I can help! I spent a long time doing research and testing products and hopefully I have come up with a pretty decent custom coupon binder.
And I have 5 of them ready to go as a giveaway for five of you guys and I hope you like what I have pulled together! These binders are fully organized and even include a few complete coupon inserts so you are off to the races!
If you would like to win one custom binder filled with everything I think you need to get started using coupons (or move yourself up to the next level of using coupons) you have a few chances to win:
1. Just leave a comment below letting me know what system you use to organize your coupons. Do you have them in a nice binder already, an accordian file, envelopes, all crumbled up in the bottom of your purse? I was actually the latter of those selections until this weekend when I finally got through about a zillion coupons and now they are nicely organized. (whoot whoot!)
2. FOR A BONUS ENTRY: Just like My Frugal Adventures on Facebook. Easy peasy. Make sure to leave a SECOND comment letting me know we are friends!
AND IF YOU REALLY WANT TO WIN:
You can share this giveaway on your Facebook wall. I have extra binders all set to go and if one of your friends likes My Frugal Adventures and wins the giveaway, you get a binder just for referring them!
To share this on your wall just look for the little blue f in a square at the bottom of this post. It looks like this:
Click that and this giveaway will post to your wall!
So good luck! I will pick a winner on Thursday at 7pm PST.
*Note: I know there are lots of male readers these days which is just awesome. So not to worry I have a choice of two colors in the binder for each winner. So you guys won’t be hauling around a bright pink binder unless you decide that’s the one you want.

I arrange my coupons by insert date
I used to do the accordian style. Then I saw a coupon pro binder and went nuts! I’ve never been the same! I just have to keep myself organized in my individual sections! I’m now going to redo my book to use the grocery isle method of filing! Wish me luck!
OH!! this would be soooo helpful. I have been couponing for a couple years now and I use a mini accordian file. I have been wanting to upgrade my organizing to a binder for months now!!!!
I use the file system where I don’t cut out any coupons, but rather save the whole insert. I also have a boat-load in my purse and the printable ones are all in a small plastic box.
I am already using a binder system buy I have not figured out how to organize it well yet. I would love this!
I use an accordion file labeled according to when my coupons expire.
I just started couponing and am trying the binder method. Winning a binder that is already set up would be awesome!
i use an accordion folder for all my non-organized / i’ll-get-to-them-at-some-point coupons. i do have 2 binders (one for food and one for other stuff) but i haven’t fully figured out how to divide everything. i have a 3-year old and a newborn (still in the hospital b/c he was born 10 weeks early) so i have little time to get it all neat and tidy. I tend to use your site so I can get you to do the dirty work (he he) and tell me which coupons i need and where to get the best deal.
I have two envelopes, all crumbled up in the bottom of your purse!

I read your post..my husband and I just started when he was let go in may so this would be a cool thing to have a binder. Right now we are using envelopes until we find one. Can you tell me where you find the things they put in the binders for the coupons? Even if we don’t get chosen if you can give me some hints it might help us. Right now I can’t get past 40% savings. Thank you in advance for your help.
Extra entry: I like MFA on FB!
I use a binder w/ sheet protectors and sort them by insert date. I tried other methods but this one works best for me (it helps this way when you do matchups and they reference the insert date). Yesterday it was in our trunk and we left the little “water release” cap open on our cooler and everything INCLUDING my binder was a soaking mess. BUT!! Since I use sheet protectors, NONE of my coupons were ruined!!! 🙂 My car stinks but hey, I don’t care… I’m off to CVS! So if I don’t win, I will wait until AFTER back to school to grab a new binder on clearance! Good luck everyone!
I started a coupon binder and I am slowly building it up and trying to figure out how to organize it to best suit my needs.
I am already a facebook fan!!!
I think I use all the coupon methods , I have two coupon binders, because I started with what I had in my house, I have coupons in my purse and also in the backpack I carry to work, My sister ended up in the hospital for 3 months and I have got my coupons organized again….
I have just put together a Binder!

I use the binder method. Mine is in such bad shape this is a perfect giveaway.
I actually found this giveaway b/c I am already a facebook friend but I also posted the link to my page b/c i have lots of friends who coupon too and would love to see the chance to win a binder as well.
I am friends with you on FB.
I currently use a really bad plastic coupon keeper which the lid has broken off and I have now lost the lid. It is to small although very organized. I have always wanted to switch to a binder but just never knew where to start. Would love to win one.
I use an accordian file but would like to switch to using a binder.

I use a binder. I love it. Would love even more one of yours. 🙂
I have folders- they arent the most organized but at least its a start
I’ve been couponing for about three years and have a beat up accordion folder that I love. It was there bucks at walmart and has about 15 dividers and I wish I could find something similar to replace it. I just wish the dang target coupons printed smaller! These binders sound incredible, thanks for the giveaway!

I have mine in a binder, but it’s almost at capacity!
I use an accordian and its sooo fat I can’t close it anymore, and I was just thinking about switching to a binder. Thanks for doing this.
I use 5 accordion envelopes plus a coupon organizer to put coupons I plan to use at the store. Interested In checking out binder syste
So excited to come across this! I just started couponing and actually did my FIRST real shopping trip this morning. 5 transactions but only saved about 45%. The total came to $145, I spent $84. Not terrible for a first time but not great either. I still need lots of help and this would be awesome to win this! I liked your facebook page too and will post on facebook as well. Thanks!
My coupons sit on the windowsill in my kitchen with a paperweight on them. I sort through them before I go to the store and all the ones I take with me are in one stack in my purse. I definitely need some organization!!
I use envelopes.
I have two accordion files. And it would be such a blessing to win a binder of coupons because I don’t earn much and my folks are seniors on a fixed income. I read your site regularly and have gotten many good things because of it. Thank you so much!

I use a binder and clip. Takes time but I like it.
I use a binder already, but would love a boost!
We are now friends on Facebook!

I don’t cut any coupons until I need them and leave them in a pile.
I use a zippered art box that I made folders with categories. I would like to win to spread the coupon love to a friend of mine who is just starting out (:
Thanks for your hard work!
I have my coupons in a binder in abc order by brands.
