The Coupon FilePortable Coupon Organizing SystemWhat exactly is a coupon file?
It's a portable, suitcase type box, usually made of plastic, that's your own little personal sized filing cabinet. Designed to sit in the child seat of a shopping cart, you customize your coupon organizing system to reflect your needs, filing alphabetically or by coupon category. Before getting started, these two pages should help you out: Methods of Organizing Coupons Coupon Categories
Advantages and Disadvantages of the Coupon FileThe biggest advantage to the coupon box (or file) is it's size.It is large enough to store thousands of coupons neatly. (I know, I've done it!) Whether you have only one of a particular coupon or 100, you can find your coupons easily. Unlike the coupon binder, there is no need to trim your coupons to fit in a tight pocket. The coupon box has room to store any sized coupon. As far as disadvantages to this coupon organization system, it is rather bulky. And you will still need to thumb through your files to find a particular coupon, while with the coupon binder you can see the individual coupons in clear pockets. Buy Coupon Organizers
I've seen several files on the market, supposedly specifically designed with the coupon user in mind, but I have failed to find a better box than the one Michele Easter sells at RefundCents. It's the one you see here in my homemade pictures on this page. If you're looking for the coupon file she's got for sale (around $25 with shipping), you can find it by clicking here on the RefundCents link. Click on the "Start Your Subscription" link in the upper left hand corner. You don't need to have a subscription to this service in order to buy the coupon box, (scroll down to the middle of the page to find it). Make Your Own Coupon Organizing System
Part of frugal coupon living is coming up with creative ways to save money. If you have more time than money, you may want to make your own coupon file. Your coupon box can be made of a variety of materials:
If you're building a wooden box, good dimensions to start with are 16-20" long x 4-5" tall x 6-7" deep. Make sure you put dividers in your box to make organizing easier.
