Life is crazy, but your purse doesn’t have to be. I feel like as a mom, there are so many things that I need to keep on the go. To keep the clutter (especially paper clutter–can I get an amen?!) out of my purse, I have a few systems that I employ that really help.
1) Get a purse organizer. This is a game changer. I got mine from Etsy (you can click the images below), or you can get them for less than $10 on Amazon.
2) Get yourself a purse trash can. I use an old pill bottle. You can leave the lid on or off (sometimes off is easier, and things don’t fall out!)
3) Gift card organizers are great for those gift cards or even credit cards, too. You can get them at the Dollar Tree!
4) $1 file folder for paper clutter. You can find these at the Dollar Spot at Target (and they have the cutest patterns). I label mine with:
- Store Coupons– So I have them in hand when I head out on a shopping trip
- Grocery Coupons– I grocery shop with coupons, and after I cut them, I stick them in my organizer before I go to the store.
- Receipts– After I buy anything, I stick it in here for safe keeping, and I can file when I get home…or more realistically at the end of the week/month
- Other– Random papers I need to hold on to
- Extra– Extra coupons of items that were out of stock (this happens a lot–you know what I mean if you coupon)
- Business Cards– Cards I get out and about, and my Doitonadime cards
- Child– Coupons for kid goodies and free stuff!
