AuburnChick's Adventures

Coupon Queen paid me the ultimate compliment.

She told me that she likes my coupon binder and asked me to provide a list of the categories I came up with.  You see, she’s going to make one for herself!

I thought I would go ahead and post these here, in case anyone else can use them.

Before I list them, let me suggest something to you (something I wish I’d thought of before setting up my binder).  Keep all of your category letters separate.  By that, I mean, keep the A’s together.  If you have open slots at the end, don’t automatically start with the B’s.  Just leave them in case you need to add more A’s later.

When making my binder, I accidentally left out a few categories, and rather than moving my labels around (I’m anal in this way), I stuck the new categories at the end of my binder.  It’s going to drive me nuts, I know, and I might eventually go back and slip them in.

Ok…now for the categories…
