Grocery shopping is probably the 2nd largest expense in your family’s budget, after housing. Feeding our families is not optional. We are all striving to provide healthy meals that will fill the tummies in our houses. Many of us are continually struggling to come up with creative ways to reduce the budget while still providing great meals. I have a few steps that you might want to try to kick the budget into gear for the summer.

Be sure to shop the sales. With the help of the shopping lists and grocery guide on Pinching Your Pennies and your local grocery store ads, you can plan a great menu and save money instantly just by shopping the sales. If you find a great deal on something that you know you will use then stock-up. This step is pretty simple.

Don’t forget the basics. Things like milk, eggs, cheese and bread that you use every week are very important items to not forget on your list. You will have less temptation for impulse shopping on additional shopping trips to grab these weekly staples.

Write up some basic menus that you can easily throw together. Things that your family loves. This way you will know what you are watching for in the grocery ads.

Save your receipts. Then you can look back at them and see what great prices to be on the lookout for again! It can also help you to pinpoint the items that you are spending the most money on and you will be able to see if you can make cutbacks on the expensive items.

Cook from scratch. Many things are much cheaper to make than they are to buy. By cooking from scratch you are eliminating unwanted waste from packaging, and you are gaining the satisfaction of doing for yourself. Try some old family recipes!

Eat leftovers. Don’t’ waste anything. Learn creative ways to use everything up! Purposely have leftovers that you can freeze and use on another night. Save yourself a trip through the drive-thru.

Check out your local discount stores. Closeouts can yield great savings. See if your local discount stores accept coupons for additional savings. We go to our local bread outlet store to stock-up on snacks for the kids for the summer. Be sure when shopping discount stores, to check the expiration dates. If the items are close dated use them quick or freeze them.

**link to the binder has been fixed in the post. Thanks!**

Since I get 6 copies of the Sunday paper I have what I think is a good method for organizing my coupons. There is NO WAY I could clip all those coupons. It would take forever! I read somewhere that 75% off clipped coupons never get used. So I don’t waste that time. I love the way I do it and it works for me. I know there are many methods for organizing coupons out there. This may not work for everyone. But if you get multiple Sunday subscriptions…think about it.

Okay…ready to learn what I do?

When I get my Sunday inserts I rip them apart at the spine so each page is separate. Then I lay them out in piles of the same page. Sometimes when the inserts are thick I have 15 pages, other times I have less. It just depends on how thick the inserts are. Then I staple each set together. Make sense?

Then after I have stapled each set I label it on the front, like so. The date and what insert it is (SS=Smart Source). There are also Red Plum inserts, General Mills inserts, and Proctor and Gamble inserts.

Then I stick them in sheet protectors by date. I also organize them by insert. So all my Smart Source inserts are together, Red Plum are together, etc. When I need a coupon I just take out the stapled set and cut out what I need at the store. It might take a little longer to get my coupon ready in the store but it beats clipping everything and then not using most of what I clip!

So far I really like organizing my coupons this way because it cuts down on wasted cutting time. Many, many times I would spend time planning out my trip, clipping the coupons I needed then when I got to the store they were out of what I wanted and I was left with a mess of coupons to refile. Now I cut only what I need when I need it. I love it! And as the coupons expire I just take out the whole insert. So easy.

And I know you are wondering how in the world I find the coupon I need, right? SUPER EASY, people! PinchingYourPennies.com has a updated weekly list of available coupons in alphabetical order. So I print out that list, keep it in my binder and I am good to go. Takes me 2 minutes tops to find what I need. I love it!

Here are some more pics of the binder I use. Isn’t she beautiful! This is the Case-It Dual 500 dual binder 2-in-1 zipper binder. What a name, huh! As you can see, she expands up to 5 inches…which gives me plenty of room to store all those coupons. I can zip it closed with ease.

The front opens up to reveal lots of compartments for storage. Pens, calculators, highlighters, etc. The possibilities are endless!

In the front are pockets where I keep the current weekly ads. I don’t like going to the store without them. I also keep my weekly coupon list here for easy reference.

The larger ring on the left is where I keep my Smart Source and Red Plum inserts. The right side is where I keep my Proctor and Gamble and General Mills inserts.

In the very back I have a pouch where I keep printable coupon, catalinas, and other items I will be using very soon. Behind that I have sheet protectors labeled for each store, ie Target, Albertson’s, Walgreens, Rite Aid, etc. to put the rest of my printable coupons, store coupons, and catalinas. That way I know right where to find each store’s coupons. I also keep the weekly ad in there too.

I still have an accordion file where I keep all my printable coupons and coupons I get from the mail, etc. in. I carry it in my purse and organize those by category.

In the very back is another storage compartment for whatever you need. Right now this is where I have my calculator, pens, highlighters and such. I might move them though. I haven’t decided if I like them there.

The binder is pretty heavy, but it also has a shoulder strap too! Awesome.

My husband thinks I am crazy for carrying this thing around. But I love it! Being organized when it comes to coupons is KEY. So far I have converted several family and friends to this method. Maybe you will too! 🙂
