Quote from mofome :
Since I just switched over to the binder method, I will respond to this. I switched b/c I had 3 huge coupon organizers I was trying to maintain - one for CVS, one for Target and one for the grocery store. I even had separate bags for each coupon organizer! It was out of hand. Plus I then had these little pencil pouch things that I would put either that day's coupons in or for Target I would put the coupons that I pretty much always used (you know, the mainstays like Febreze bogos and stuff like that). So I bought a doublesided binder on clearance at Target and half of it is the non food coupons and the other half is food coupons. So now everything is in one place.
So far, I love it. Only downside I had was having to fold some coupons to get them to fit in the baseball card sleeves. But I did put some divider things in that have pockets and just put some in there if I don't want to fold them. I used the heavy duty Post It tabs to make it that much easier to find what I need.
It is big, bulky, heavy, barely fits in the small new carts my CVS got, but it has a handle and a carrying strap. And it works so well to just be able to flip to a section and grab what I need versus rifling through all of my coupons to find the one I want only to realize I left it in the Target organizer and need it at CVS or something like that!
So there's my 2, HTH!
I'm going to have to look for one of those. What do you mean by doublesided? Does it have 2 separate zipped sides? I sounds very nice.

Yes, you just need enough items to cover your Qs at WAGS. Like last night, I got 2 $25 Shell gas cards and used $50 in RRs to pay. I made this part of a larger order ('cause I don't have the balls laugh out loud to just buy the GC w/my RRs-- unlike SOME (Trang) who have no fear!-- but I bought 8 bars of the WAG brand soap-- on sale w/7 day Q for $.25 each-- so I could use all of my RRs on that order.
Oh, but *I* do....literally!

Other nifty fillers are Wags brand facial tissue purse packs (4/$1), or, if your store has them, clearanced flower and veggie seeds ($0.14 at my store), clearanced mini-hilighters
($0.10 to $0.25), and clearanced pencils (as low as a nickel!).

Also, the past couple weeks I have thrown in a Crest Pro-Health 500ml ($4.49) as it generates a $4.50 RR all on its own...

Can you tell I've done this a few times recently?

Don't even ASK how many bottles of Robitussin we have...and the deal returns next week (albeit not quite as slick, but still a money maker).

Guilty.

She leaves the deal-finding, mega-runs, and smarmy message board commentary to me.

Although, she does like to load the cart with me, especially at Target, and always has a use for any overages I accumulate. Then, when it's time to check out, either she or the boys (or both) suddenly have to go to the restroom---imagine that!

I don't mind, though. shake head

I agree! Your DW is a super lucky woman. I can't even get my husband to go to Target with me unless HE wants something. Even then, usually I just go myself.

She's one lucky lady!!

I'm ready for another good GC deal at Target. I hardly go onto the deals page the past couple of weeks. Seems like we're all migrating to the KM thread laugh out loud

i too use a binder now for my Q organization. however i do NOT bring it into the stores with me. i simply cut my Qs and put them into the pages by category/item. ie i have a page for hair care, page for medicines, etc.

then when i want to shop i find the Qs i need for the deals i am doing and i go. i will say its frustrating when i find something on clearance and want to get it but i dont because i KNOW i have Qs sitting at home for them. i need to start bringing it in the car at least.

also, i dont have ALL my q's in there yet and its very full. if you get a lot of copies of inserts, i'd cut like one of each out and put it in then make reference to where it came from if you need to find the copies again. i just like seeing them page by page rather than in a box as well.

Thanks, ladies! I love doing these deals, the money we save, and the great things we're able to pick up for free with the overages!

Say, Teri, how about a "buy 4 Archer Farms Organic Salsa, get a $5 GC" deal?

We can hope, right?

RRs work on anything... wording on them says they don't... but... depends on your cashier. I had a nice young teenage girl who loves my coupons laugh out loud

I found the pumpkin kinds right in the regular aisle, next to the other scents. Pumpkin spray and candles mmmmm. Some kind of autumn leave spray too Confused

I made Eagle brand "pumpkin pie gems" last night - I LOVE those. Buy a ton when WM clearances them out every year and make them all year long laugh out loud

NO! I want to come to you for thanksgiving laugh out loud
ok, totally gonna make those gems this year...and what in the world is the deal with the febreze stuff at wag's????? what am i missing???

Quote from doublesided :
I'm just glad I could help someone else the way everyone here has helped me! If you see any more printables in the future, send them my way and I'll print for you

I have a LOT of MM to convert tomorrow. Would start tonight but jen isn't around till tomorrow and I"m gonna need some help.

how much are those baseball card sleeves I need to get--want to think it into a run
I switched my schedule....so no 12-8 for me... i will be around all day until 5. I'm going to try and get to sleep in the next 20 minutes and wake up early. At least then i can go through it with ya.

Quote from Devilmomma :
DS gets bored when shopping for more than a half hour and DD is just too crazy, lol. Although she loves babies and lil kids and would be all over your lil one.

brb...I need a DQ fix. Goin for a Blizzard. hope they're still open.
mmmmm dq...sounds so good!!

Quote from Pretzels :
Jimmy - are you guys having a baby yet???

For the meijer glade catalinas - is there a limit of 1 per order or does it print multiples if you buy more than 1?

I found a couple of those peelies and I *think* Jen has some more for me - This would be really cool!

Devilmomma - I am checking my bag to make sure I have room for all my coupon boxes! Of course - I will just have to shop for you guys beings I won't be able to bring anything back with me, but who cares right??!! I can't wait!
I do I do...and now that i know i can use them at my grocery store and get $2 cats i gotta go find a ton more tommorow!! lol Yay free groceries for me!!!

ok my two cents on the whole coupon holder thing.....

I love pretzels set up, but alas I can't ever seem to keep it organized. Binders...uhm no thanks. i'm sure they are great for some people but it's just not me. So this is what I did. I took 3 little photo books (and i do mean little....i have 3 in my purse and they take hardly no room. I took the q's that I know or think I will use and put them in there. I have one for HBA, one for food, and one for misc. They cost a $1 each at Target. I LOVE it! I can flip through real fast and see them super easy. The only thing I don't like is one has the opening on the side and the other two are from the top. I wish they were all from the side. They are little and discreet which is the best part to me. I pull out a lot less q's that i won't use that way.

Quote from stormy_cat :
Consider yourself invited! It is my great-great grandmothers recipe and my grandmother taught me how to make it. There were no directions or measurements I had to make it with her to get the measurements down. It makes 3 pies at a time. We eat 1/2 the 1st night, send a pie home w my Dad, eat a whole pie for Thanksgiving and finish it off the next day.

Ok here is some mushy stuff again. This is on a scrapbook page a page I did about the recipe and my grandmother

That is sooo beautiful!!! WOW!!! heart

No baby yet. shake head Frown

We only tried 1 to see if it actaully worked. We have a (cough) "few more" coupons and will probably try 3 at a time just to see if we get a $6 coupon. I believe the coupon is only good for about a week or so.

Quote from gypsylady :
Pretzels, I was buying two at a time today and the cat machine printed multiples, so I got 2 $2 coupons each time. Those peelies from Walgreen's are a money maker, since the air fresheners are free with the coupon, then you can use them at the grocery store to make $2 each. Between Air fresheners and Powerade, I got many cat coupons today to spend for some good food! Now the powerade will only print 1 cat coupon per transaction. I have 60 powerade zeros to drink, which is good because my kids like them as well. My DH says I am obsessed, but even he will drink the Powerade zero. This is really unusual because he won't usually drink sugar free/diet drinks, but even he says these are good!

60 makes you obsessed?????

I wonder what 490 would make a person????Scratchhead Teehee Whistling
