I just recently started using the binder method and I'm in love. I done the ziploc bags, the box, the piles that never get sorted through, and the binder just is the best. The binder I have I found at Costco within the past month (and they still had them when I was there today) for $9.99. It's got A LOT of storage. It's a 2 1/2 inch zippered binder by PLANAHEAD. On the front it has a zippered pocket that I use to store my shopping list and the ads/coupons I'm using that day. Then it has a velcroed flap that has a zippered mesh pocket, 2 pen/pencil slots and two smaller pockets (would store a small calculator). Inside the main zippered compartment it features a 6 pocket accordian file (which I use to store my coupon inserts that have yet to be cut). There is a fabric flap on the rings that on the front side is split into two zippered mesh pockets (perfect for scissors, rogue coupons, rebates, etc) and another pen/pencil slot. The back side is divided into 3 pockets (one the perfect size for postcard-type coupons) and another pen/pencil slot. The rear inside of the binder has another non-zippered mesh pocket.
I added the baseball card holders which I found at the AF Walmart in the trading card section up front (close to register 19).

I picked up the Case-It Binder with zipper and strap at the Sandy Albertson's recently. I decided to try the one that had two rings in it. On one side I put the coupons and on the other I put other stuff (like ads - price lists, etc). Each side has something that will velcro down the pages so that they stay put when you want them too. I really like it and the binder was on sale at the time.

The best binders also include a strap - over the shoulder leaves hands free for carrying the oodles and oodles of great grocery deals.

I guess I forgot to mention in my description of the PLANAHEAD binder that it does include a detachable strap.

I was just clued into a great way to cut out my coupons. You use a wrapping paper cutter. It is like a cutting wheel that you use for cutting fabric but it is for paper. You can find them everywhere I got mine at Walmart. You can totally stack all your coupons and cut them out so fast and accurate. Thanks for the heads up on the awesome binders at Costco.

Where in Walmart would you find the paper cutter? By the scrapbook stuff?

By the scrapbook stuff I would imagine, or down the aisle with the wrapping paper. You can find them really easy during the Christmas season when they have tons of present wrapping things out all over

What do you do, and how do know when coupons expire and counter that into your coupon saving method here?

The best time to get them is when they go on sale when school starts. I know that is still a while away.
I found mine at Big Lots.

Word to the wise. I tried to "modify" this method with a short cut and was so sorry I did the very first day! :-)

So I know this is a little late to respond to a Feb entry, but I just wanted to put in my two cents that I got my binder at DI and paid only $1.50 for it. There were quite a few options at both AF and Provo. I LOVE the binder method. I have tried other ways of couponing and this makes all the difference in the world! Also, Walgreens has quite a few school supplies on sale right now and I got colored tabs for my binder on Saturday (after going a month with no tabs
) for only $0.49 for the pack. There were 24 tabs in the pack.
