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.
Please be sure to leave a comment by clicking below. Any comments on Facebook, twitter or via email will not count!

I use a binder with baseball card holders. Coupons that are the same I group in the same holder and put then in order of expiration date.
I use a binder, but it’s getting a little too small
I use the reply envelopes from my junk mail 🙂
I also am your friend on facebook and can’t wait to see posts from you or get emails from you.
I’m new to couponing and I have been using an accordian file and envelopes thought it was going to be easier that haha its not I knew I had certain coupons and they where organized but half the time I can’t find the ones I need ugh.. and I just haven’t had the money to go a binder on what I and my 3 kids live on a mo. Is a binder easier to keep track on what u have then an accordian file. Like I said I’m new at couponing.
I am currently use a binder to organize my coupons. However, everytime I open my binder the clasps open and my coupon sleeves fall out. I feel like I am spending more time putting coupons back in my binder than I spend in the store using them. It would be amazing to win a new one to prevent me from having to buy a new one. Saving money is always a plus. 🙂
i use a small cheapo coupon organizer. but would LOVE to use a binder, i just don’t know how!
Please pick Me!!
We’re already friends on FB.
i “like” your facebook page 🙂
I use an accordian file. Would love to win a binder!
I use an zippered envelope for my grocery coupons and a couple of clear plastic boxes for all the rest. They are organized by type, but it is a very loose organization!
I am a facebook fan!
We are facebook friends!
i think your giveaways are awesome and very kind. you do so many, its great. i am still a new coupon user so i am stil trying to play with my system, right now i would say i am in between a binder and a fiing system with the inserts, and i keep target coupons in an envelope sepated in to food and nonfood! If i win a binder i will share it with someone else, i from time to time find new couponers that dont have a system at all yet, and i feel like i am starting to get the feel for it!! (~_~) HAPPY 4TH OF JULY!!
Heads up I wasn’t trying to cheat by entering 2 entries. I was on my phone the first time and I did not think it went through so I got on my computer 🙂 Forgive me.
I use a beat up old dollar store accordian coupon holder..lmao. Yeah, need something else for sure!
I am a FB fan. As much as I love to save $$, it doesn’t help when you have an upset child at the register and you forget to use the coupons you have stashed away in your purse!
Shared this on Facebook!
I have a box. I had been using a small accordion type but tried something new with the box thinking about going to multiple small accordions according to topics (ie health & beauty, household. Ect)
I’ m still using accordion binders
Wadded up ball in the bottom of my purse… Please help!!!!
I use a pink sequinced binder, but usually, a majority of my coupons are crumpled in the bottom of my purse, covered in my curious 7 month old’s saliva.
I liked you on Facebook!
I use a mini accordian file with coupons I plan to use that week and use file folders at home to store my coupons by insert and date but I plan to setup a binder someday…
I use a small recipe box broken into sections by dividers.

Oh man, would I love to win one of these! Thanks for doing all this hard work for such a great giveaway! I am currently using an accordion file, but it never quite seems to do the trick 🙂
I just cut them up and keep them in a ziploc baggie = (
I have a box I keep my coupons in….I made files to organize then. Have been wanting to get a binder but haven’t gotten that far!
I already like MFA on FB (Stephanie R)
I am also a facebook friend of yours…..

Ok well I’m a coupon Virgin. I just clip and stuff in a ziplock baggie. :/
I use a square basket with envelopes Name taged by Categorie
I liked you on FB!
I use a small accordian file folder with ziploc bags in it.
Most of my coupons are either in a drawer in my kitchen or on the passenger seat of my car, where they eventually make their way to the floor and expire. Not a great system!
We use both a 3-ring binder (for the inserts) and a box for the internet/misc. It sounds more cumbersome than it is. 🙂
just started couponing- sounds like a great way to get organized
I use a 2 binders, one with food items and the other with non food items. then each binder is divided in it’s own categories ( frozen, dairy, soups, etc…)

Loving MFA on FB!
I don’t really have anything to organize my coupons. they are all stuffed in a manilla folder atm.

I have a binder, but usually when I get the paper I cut out one of each insert. I take the other 3 sets from the other papers and tuck them into the binder. That way I can quickly see if I have a coupon and that way I know I have 3 more in the sleeves.

I would love to win a coupon binder. Currently I keep my coupons in a ziploc.. so this binder would help me tremendously!
I am a facebook fan. I love your blog and enjoy seeing your FB posts.
I use an accordion packet, with dividers labeled in order by aisles of the store where I shop the most. That way, I don’t have to flip through all the pockets-I just go in order.
