Look what I found at Staples for $1

I have a large 3" 3-ring binder that I keep my coupons in when I'm doing my couponing, but I also keep legal-sized envelopes with me, one for each store, with my shopping lists, store cards, and coupons specifically for those trips.

Well, the envelopes have been driving me nuts! My coupons, shopping lists, register rewards and store cards keep falling out of the envelopes and it makes me feel so unorganized!

Well I was in Staples tonight while BF ran into Guitar Center next door, and lookie what I found! As soon as I saw them, I knew these were the answer to my envelopes problem! They are the perfect size - 10" x 5" and they were on clearance for $1.00! I bought all 6 they had left.

They are clear plastic pouches with a zipper top. I can see exactly what I have because they are clear, and nothing will spill out of them anymore! I'm making one for each store. Just gotta put cute labels on them :D   Ahhhh organization, how I have missed you!

  1. for .89 you could have bought ziploc bags to do the same thing!! a really good coupon deal could have made it free!!!

  2. These are much heavier duty than the Ziploc bags. I'm thrilled with them!
