Walk Softly and Carry a Small Binder!

I carry a very small (yet MiGHtY!) coupon binder. It’s the from the Martha Stewart line exclusive to Staples and they’re on sale for 40% OFF right now. I’m considering getting a 2nd one to use just for coupons that I’m trading away and for my membership cards that I don’t really need to carry with me all the time.

Here’s what I love about this binder system:

It’s black (somewhat discreet and still looks new after 6 months of constant use)
Two pockets on the inside covers (I transfer coupons from their sleeves to the front pocket as I’m shopping so that I can slip them to the cashier at check-out with no fuss)
The sleeves hold WebSaver, Save.ca, & P&G mail coupons with no folding; Go.Coupons and SmartSource fold nicely into thirds
The sleeve pockets have a flap so nothing EVER falls out
The rings have never once given me problems
Larger sleeves hold thicker cardboard coupons that won’t fold (cut out from cereal boxes, etc.)
The silicone ziploc sleeve holds my stamps and envies for fast trading & mail-in-rebates
It rests nicely on top of shopping carts for quick flipping
It fits in every purse I own (ok, not my fav clutch for weddings, but who needs coupons at weddings?!)
