Eliminate Coupon Clutter: Two Systems to Consider

July 23, 2017 by npriolo Leave a Comment

Coupons are great, but if they are constantly creating clutter or if you can’t ever find the one you need when you’re ready to use it, then they can start to drive you crazy. If you’re in need of inspiration for a system to organize your many coupons, I’d like to offer two different solutions to consider.
