24-Hour Giveaway: The Couponizer and Greatest Secrets of the Coupon Mom

by crystal on July 10, 2008

To help keep spending in line with family financial goals,
stay at home mom Amy Bergin created her own system for organizing and
shopping with coupons. Her success in changing her spending routines
and boosting her savings is what inspired her to offer her system to
anyone who desires the same outcome.
The Couponizer®
is an organizing and shopping system for grocery coupons and other
discounts including entertainment, restaurant, retail and services. It
is the #1 best selling coupon organizer on the market having sold out
multiple times on QVC. It is the first shopping system to offer more
than just a holder for coupons, but it is instead a whole system of
tools to enable consistent savings.

The entire 7 piece system includes:

The Couponizer® – 8" x 5 ¼” booklet with 18 grocery coupon pockets, 4
Non-grocery coupon pockets, 3 gift card/shopper loyalty sleeves,
shopping pockets
Shopping List – 20 page tear off list pad with cardboard backing
CoupStacker – pre-sorting mat color coded to match the system pockets
CoupTracker – 15 page spiral bound list pad with cardboard backing
“Your Guide to Smart Savings” – instruction booklet with spending strategy and coupon tips
Scissors – blunt tip
Carrying Bag – clear vinyl zippered bag

Just for fun, I decided to transfer all of my coupons from my big coupon box to the Couponizer to see how it would work.

I loved the CoupStacker. It made it so easy to quickly organize coupons.

The front clear card holders are also a great addition to The Couponizer–you always know exactly where your store reward cards are!

As you can see, The Couponizer was a bit overwhelmed by my massive stash of coupons! It obviously is not incredibly practical for someone who clips and files most coupons like I do; however, I really think a large number of you would find The Couponizer perfectly suited for your situation.

If you follow the CouponMom system and keep your inserts whole and only clip the coupons you know you will be using, the Couponizer would be a perfect system for you. I also think that The Couponizer would be excellent for those who are just beginning to use coupons or for those who find mega-coupon-shopping to be overwhelming and only like to use a few coupons here and there.

Amy has generously donated two of The Couponizer organization systems for me to give away to two randomly-selected entrants. Plus, the winners will also receive a copy of Stephanie Nelson’s book, Greatest Secrets of the Coupon Mom!

To enter to win one of The Couponizer systems and a copy of Greatest Secrets of the Coupon Mom, just leave a comment with your name and email address (so I can contact you if you win!). I’ll randomly select two entrants Friday evening and post them along with the Super Savings Saturday post!

faith marandola July 11, 2008 at 10:47 am: I am an avid couponer, and i end up carying around a stack of loose coupons in a folder. CVS cashiers all run to the front to cover the registers when they see me coming with my pile of unorganized coupons and 8 month old baby!!

WorkingHardMom July 11, 2008 at 10:51 am: This is a great giveaway!

I am in the process of trying to find a better system. I have all my coupons in a box, indexed and categorized by what it logical to me and envelopes within each category to more readily find what I’m looking for. My box is pretty bid and doesn’t fit well in the cart in the store. This would be a great organizer for me.
Ashley Miskel July 11, 2008 at 10:51 am: I sure could use this! Right now all of my coupons are in my car! What a disaster!
Carla Howell July 11, 2008 at 10:53 am: I LOVE YOUR WEBSITE! YOU HAVE SAVED OUR FAMILY HUNDREDS…I WOULD LOVE THE ORGANIZER TO HELP ME…WELL..GET ORGANIZED! THANKS FOR ALL YOU DO!

Karen July 11, 2008 at 11:03 am: I started couponing about 3 weeks ago and just from coupons alone(not CVS, Walgreens, etc) I have saved around $75. I know I will get better at this, but this is huge for me!!! I am so excited to have a chance at winning this organizer!!

Karen White
Tonya July 11, 2008 at 11:04 am: This is smaller than my current system (clipping and filling all coupons since I do a lot of swapping) however this would be perfect for keeping the coupons I might use in. And its compact enough that my fiance would not be embarrised to carry it with him.
Kim Evans July 11, 2008 at 11:05 am: Thanks for doing this.
Suzanne July 11, 2008 at 11:07 am: pick me, pick me!

Rebecca July 11, 2008 at 11:07 am: I am new to the couponing world and I am getting a bit overwhelmed with the amount of coupons and types of coupons. All I have right now is a letter sized expandable file and it dosen’t have enough compartments to organize coupns appropriately. So I spend a good hour or two looking through coupons before I shop and transfer them to another three zippered bag. Like I said it is overwhelming and I need a very organized system. The couponizer looks like exactly what I need. I know you pick randomly but if you can help a very desperate coupon newbie it would be such a blessing. Thank you and God Bless. thefairone03@yahoo.com
