Organize your deals- lesson 2

Well, the second tip in coupon organization is clipping and buying only what you need. When you begin clipping coupons you may be tempted to clip a coupon because it seems like such a great deal. If you do not need it and have no use for it in the next 6 months, it is not a good deal. Make a list of products and brands that your family purchases often and look for coupons for those items. Many people offer coupon clipping services and you can get quantities of the coupons that you need for a small fee and cash in on the savings.

Here are a few of my favorites:
The Coupon Clippers
Rebecca's Coupons
Target (free)

Same rules apply when you are buying Christmas presents ahead of time or birthday presents throughout the year. Do not overbuy. Just because it seems like a good deal at the time, it may not be in the long run. If you do not have an intention for it, it will just collect dust and probably end up in a garage sale or the donation pile.

Make a list and STICK TO IT!
