Win-It Wednesday: The Couponizer (5 Winners!)

by

Join me every week for Win-It Wednesday. I’ll be posting 24-hour giveaways at 8 a.m., 2 p.m. and 7 p.m. ET to give you plenty of chances to win!

I’m always looking for new and improved ways to organize my coupons, so I was excited when Amy Bergin, creator of The Couponizer, asked if I’d like to test drive one. The first thing I noticed about The Couponizer is that it comes with everything a beginning coupon user needs: spiral-bound coupon booklet with coupon pockets, coupon-sorting pad, shopping list, savings tracker, scissors, and a handy clear plastic pouch to store it all. This is a fantastic way to get comfortable with using coupons and learning what works for you as far as sorting and storing them.

Now I’ve mentioned in the past that I use the file-by-insert method, so you might wonder how a product like this could work for me. As it turns out, it’s actually the perfect supplement to my current method.

I’ve always had a hard time organizing my printable coupons and other loose coupons that I receive in the mail. The Couponizer is great for sorting these coupons that I have a tendency to forget about, and it also has pockets for my store loyalty cards, as well as folders for storing coupons I plan to use in a given shopping trip. There’s also a folder for coupons to use at checkout, so you can move them over when you actually place the item in your cart, and a folder to store expiring coupons so you can make sure they’re used in a given month.

Five lucky Deal Seeking Mom readers will each win a Couponizer!

Through 7/31 you can get $1 off any order at The Couponizer. Just enter coupon code SUMMER10 at checkout!

    i use a zippered pouch, with large index cards as my dividers. that way each coupon has it’s own spot – not just clumped into a generic category and forgot about (aka – deodorant, toothpaste, toilet paper, etc all have their own index card, instead of using “personal items” on the index card). it’s helped me find my coupons so much faster!

    I use a photo album i found on clearance at target and added tape tabs to separate the categories! Poor thing is about to give up on me though!

    I use envelopes with catagories on each shopping isle and put them in a box and carry it in the store.

    I cut out coupons for things I use. My binder is so organized, it broken down by the isle of the store, then sub cats, then by expiration date. I print my list, pull the coupons, and bring my binder just in case I find another deal at the store! Works like a charm!

    I organize my coupons by type and store them in a plastic bag. I really need a better method!

    I organize my coupons by type of product and store them in a plastic zip top bag. I really need a better method!

    mine are every where. I can not seem to make my children understand that it is money they are throwing around. I have tried many different ways of organizing, even locking them up once. I made the mistake of leaving them unlocked and came home to most horrific site. I sure could use some help with my coupons and my SANITY!!!! LOL

    After using envelopes for years, I finally got myself two Coupon Wallets for Christmas. I love them! (I need two for all of the coupons that I have.)

    I use 2 accordian files – one by category and one by store. And unfortunately, a bunch of my coupons are completely unorganized in a manilla folder right now.
