Karyn, a Bargains to Bounty reader, has used her sewing talents to create some beautiful coupon organizers! These attach directly to the front of your cart for ease in executing your shopping trips! I was very excited when she agreed to offer A Premier Shopping Cart Coupon Organizer as a giveaway this month. You can read a little more about how these organizers were designed (in Karyn’s own words):
Last March, I told my husband I was taking a coupon class. Yes, in the past, we had occasionally used coupons but my friend told me she took a coupon class and was saving a ton of money on her grocery bills. So after that, I drove my husband crazy with all our coupons (he normally does the shopping on Sundays after church). But the bad thing was, he was using an envelope with our grocery list on it and coupons shoved inside. I thought, there had to be a better way to do this. I did not want one of those plastic coupon holders because they just did not hold up enough.  Since I love to sew and was making and selling homemade craft items, I thought, “Why not make my own?” I looked at some on the Internet and tweaked a bit here and there and started making my Standard Shopping Cart Coupon Organizers. However, it did not solve the list issue. I talked to my husband and he said he needed something better for a list, maybe a notepad or something. My friends wanted them a bit bigger. With their suggestions, the Premier Shopping Cart Coupon Organizer was born.
The Standard Shopping Cart Coupon Organizer is made using cotton or cotton/polyester fabric, with a layer of stabilizer to give the organizer some strength. An elastic cording loop is centered on the organizer, along with two coordinating buttons. One on the front to close your organizer when not in use. And another in the back, to attach the organizer to your shopping cart. The best place to secure your organizer is on the seat of the cart.
The Premier Organizer is approximately 6″ by 9.5″. Attached to the organizer front is a pocket that is approximately 5.25″ by 9.25″, which holds the included 50-sheet notepad. In addition, there is a 3.25″ by 5.25″ pocket in the front to hold little items, such as a calculator or phone. A penholder is also sewn in. There is a 3″ wide V on the sides of the organizer, giving you a ton of coupon storage space. Included with your Organizer are 30 1/3 cut file dividers, 28 pre-printed labels, and 14 blank labels for you to personalize.
These would make a terrific gift for your coupon-shopping friends (or yourself)! You can view all of the snazzy designs available for sale at All Wrapped Up and More (including some designs for Spartan and Wolverine fans)!
