Kate - great question. It usually depends on two things - how I tend to think of a product, and what the coupon states. For instance, if it's for $1 off Nabisco Ritz crackers, I would file it under "R," because my mind goes automatically to Ritz and often forgets that they're Nabisco. However, if the coupon happened to state $1 off any Ritz or other Nabisco crackers, I would file it under "N," because other Nabisco products are included. Make sense? Some coupons for multiple products can be tricky to decide which letter to file under, but for the most part it's pretty straightforward.

Laura - I understand completely!

Question for Lacey - Do you file according to brand name? So would it be Nabisco or Ritz? How specific are you?

Carrie - I'm glad you like it! I had to tweak it until it worked well for me, and now it makes it SO much easier to find what I need. So, find what works for you, and go for it!

And hi, Laura! :-)

Hi Kate,
I have a personal Facebook page that I NEVER check!

I don't really have last minute sweet deal finds like Macomb Money Savers does! Plus, I seriously try to limit my time spent online...

Random question...do you have a Facebook page or ever thought about having one? I love going to MMS and getting tips from readers and participating in discussions.

Glad that it was helpful!

It is a tad bit more work up front... and specially getting started, but shopping with a binder (if that's your style) makes fining your coups a breeze!

This is FANTASTIC! I am amazed and a tad bit envious of the organizational skills. I am ALL for doing alpha-order! I think this weekend I may very well steal this idea. Thank you Laura and Lacey for this FAB post!
