I'm a newbie in this couponing thing. Only been doing this for 2 weeks and I've made so many mistakes I wanted to share one idea of how to make sure you get ALL the deals instead of just a few. When I clip my coupons I put the ones I know I will use in my notebook binder in baseball sleeves and I was tossing the rest of the coupons thinking I'll never buy this. I have missed so many freebies or super cheap items this way. So now I take the leftovers of what I've clipped and put them in a file folder marked with the date so I can go back to them when I see a deal. This way you have a quick way to find the ones you think you will use along with the ones not so much. I've learned to never toss any coupon anymore. I'm sure you long timers know this already but us newbies just aren't so smart right away! HA!
