My big kid loves making board games. He has recently started talking about coding and making his own video/app based games.
When this email from Tryazon and Pixicade landed in my inbox yesterday afternoon, I had to sign up, and of course, share the opportunity with y’all.

A lot of you will start 2016 with the goal of saving money by couponing. Here are a few ways that you can organize your coupons to help you achieve your goals.
There are several methods to store your coupons when they are in your home before you go to shop, and there are several more methods for storage when you are out shopping.
Here are just a few examples of organizational methods:
Inserts filed whole by date
Whole insert: Leave the inserts whole, and file them by date. You may wish to put each insert in a tabbed folder and write the date along with the type insert such as SS (Smart Source), P&G (Proctor & Gamble), or RP (Red Plum). Example: 6/6/10 SS I recommend this method for those of you starting out, or if you don’t have a lot of time dedicated to couponing.
Clipped by dated: Filed in a similar fashion as above, but all coupons from each weeks inserts are clipped, put into an envelope, dated, and filed either in an accordion folder or filing/bank box. This can be a time saver when you need to pull coupons from a specific date. You may choose to have all coupons from the same date filed together, or you may wish to file each insert (Red Plum, Smart Source, Proctor & Gamble) separately. Example: Clipped 6/6/10 All or Clipped 6/6/10 SS
The next two storage methods are usually done when coupons are stored inside baseball card inserts in a large three ring binder.
Clipped by category: Coupons are clipped and then filed by category.
Clipped Alphabetically: Simply file the coupons alphabetically, either by product name, product type, or manufacturer.
Storage Methods
There are several methods for storage of coupons.
If you file whole inserts, you may wish to file inserts in an accordion folder or filing/bank box by date. This is the method that I use, and that I have used for over 10 years. As I have less time to dedicate to couponing, it keeps me organized and able to save the most money (and time!).
If you clip your coupons here are just a few examples of storage methods:
Coupon wallets are commercially available at office supply stores or mass merchandisers. Coupon wallets are small, reinforced accordion file with tabs. They can fit inside most purses. Organize the coupons by category or alphabetically.
Use a 3-Ring Coupon Binder with plastic page protector inserts (like these), and use tabbed dividers for the category dividers. In the front, you can put a pad of paper inside for your shopping list, a zipper pouch for pens, pencils, scissors and a calculator. 3-ring binders that zip shut are great too!
Individual envelopes- I do not recommend this method to anyone just starting out. Start with envelopes (I use #10 envelopes) and write the name of each category on the front in large, easy to read letters. File coupons by category in the corresponding envelopes, Once you have all the coupons sorted and filed, store the envelopes in a plastic tub, shoe box, whatever is easiest for you. This is by far the most time consuming method for storing coupons.
When you clip coupons and file them you can go one step further and arrange them by expiration date, amount of coupon, or alphabetically. It’s up to you. If you have multiples of the same coupon, consider paper clipping them together.
