I am new to couponing. I went ahead and called the gas station closest to my house and asked them when they done with their Sunday papers that were left over (Some send them back) luckily mine throws them away. I asked if they could save them for me and I would pick them up Monday morning. They were happy to do that for me actually when I sent my husband to pick them up, They actually had all the coupons seperated them for me so I didn’t have to deal with the disposal of the rest of the paper! Just an idea for couponers out there!!
I have found a wonderful organizer online when I was looking to purchase one-it’s called the Couponizer. It includes sections for all the different food categories as well as store Rewards, travel, restaurant coupons, etc. Also included is a mat you fold out that you sort the coupons as you clip them, then just tansfer them into the binder. Even comes with scissors-wonderful system. I was wondering though why coupons are regional-I was looking for a $3 Nivea coupon in the Redplum insert-wasn’t in OUR inserts! Luckily I had $2 coupons that the manager at Rite aid added $1 value to!
A tip: get All You magazine-it’s chock-full of coupons as well as money-saving tips!
DIANNE,
Where did you find the plastic sheets? I check at walmart and they only the bushiness card hold and the fill sheets. I Really want the Baseball card ones but cant find them. Please help, Thanks
PS, Love this site it has help out so much!
The baseball card inserts are by the checkout lines at many Wal-marts. They have baseball cards, maps, and other nick-nack gifts in this single check out aisle.

Our walmart sales the baseball card holders up by the check outs by the baseball cards. 35 pages to a pack for around #$7
Val,
I actually bought my baseball card sheets at WalMart. Not sure if they all have them, but the one I shop at (in Maine) carries them and they are located with the baseball card packages you can buy which is in the front of the store kind of mixed in with all the registers. It’s almost in a little nook that you can’t get to unless you’ve already checked out. You should probably check with someone when you first go in so they can point you in the right direction. Hope this helps!
Sara » Hi and Welcome!
My best advice would be to start small and learn all you can. Watch my videos and/or read my eBook and don’t take on too much too fast so you don’t get overwhelmed – it is and should be fun – not a chore so, make it fun.
If you have any specific questions,, feel free to ask!
Thanks!
