So after a few different styles of organizing my coupons, I think I've finally got it right ;) Remember this is what works for me, it's perfectly fine if this doesn't work for you! Quick Reminder: always put your contact information on your binder in case you leave it at the store (not speaking from experience or anything ;) I broke down 25 coupon binder sections and you can access a Printable Table of contents HERE. I then purchased "Table of Contents" binder dividers that look like this below:

Right now on Amazon The Table of Contents 1-25 are on sale for $5.14 with FREE Prime Shipping!

So yesterday I put my new binder to the test. I was lucky enough to get (10) Sunday inserts yesterday of each one (SS, P&G, RP). I then separated each of the inserts out and began cutting:

I then was able to quickly file them according to section. Total time cutting and organizing 30 inserts was a little less than 40 minutes! I also put my binder to the test out shopping yesterday too, and it really was a breeze to quickly find my coupons. The Downside? Constantly carrying around a HUGE binder ;( I just put it down inside a large tote, and throw my wallet inside and go!
