Coupons
save you nothing if they're not with you when you need them.
They also create stress when scattered all over your vehicle.
To keep mine handy (and hidden), I purchased a small tote that fits between
the front seats in my van and a set of
expandable pocket folders to categorize store coupons by type.
Now, whenever I'm at the mall, I reach for the blue clothing
folder to see if there are any offers that I want to take
advantage of. I scan through coupons in the red folder whenever
we want to eat out, and the green home/miscellaneous folder if
I need to stop at Bed Bath & Beyond or a discount store for
household items.
The pocket
folders worked so well that I added two more: one to store directions
that I might need to reference again in the future and a second
to hold glasses cleaner, lotion, and other small items. To
further contain clutter, I purchased a clear travel cosmetic
organizer from Walmart and use it to hold my smallest items such
as clippers, a finger nail file, and ibuprofen.
That's all
for this mobile organizing tip.
Don't let vehicle clutter drive you crazy, contain it instead!
