Finally happened last week.. I purchased a 3" zip binder... and I can't close it:hysterical:.. I need help! Do they sell bigger ones? I have seen the Case-it binders that have a 3" and a 1.5" but I am just not sure it will be big enough either.... Would I be better off using a box? I really need advice b/c I don't want to to tote 2 binders into the store when I'm shopping with my kids...
:thanks7:

i found a few weeks ago at target, a DOUBLE sided zippered binder.....BOTH sides zip up, theres pockets on the outside of both sides, and pockets on the inside of both sides:)

this solved my problem of having to tote around numerous binders

Thanks! Do you know if they were 1.5" on each side? I did see some like that and they just won't work..

I had never heard of Case It before, so I did a search to see what you were talking about. Apparently they have a 4" binder, if that helps you out.

Amazon.com: Case-it D185, 4 Inch Round Ring Zipper Closure Binder with 6 Tab File Folder, 1 Unit, Red, Size - 13 X 14.6 X 5.2 inches: Office Products (http://www.amazon.com/Case-Zipper-Closure-Binder-Folder/dp/B001GIP20S/ref=pd_sbs_op_5)

Thanks! I was hoping they had something just a bit bigger in a single ring.

I have a baby shopping with me. so I don't carry diaper bag into the store only put one diaper and small bag of wipes in the tote and left diaper bag in t he car........ Pretend coupons tote as a diaper bags . hee hee.

Hopefully I don't look like a weirdo to other shopper.

A money box with trays might do it- large area underneath with slots for stuff you're going to use up fastest. Or maybe a tacklebox? A big trapper-keeper?

I keep all my inserts by date in a crate with manilla and hanging files.
I only cut one of each thing I think I might want. Date it with the insert date and then my binder is not so heavy and crowded. I often keep my crate in the back of the car in case there is something clearanced that I need the coupons right away. Otherwise I just clip all the coupons when I find the deals in the adds or on HCW. Of course all the rain checks and catalina's and printables go in there so it is still full. Just not near so heavy. I just got tired of carrying a folder that was so heavy. It workds alot better for me.
