Cutting your cutting time

I get 5 copies of the Sunday paper and there can be a lot of coupons to cut some weeks. So here are some tips to make the process go a little faster.

• Make sure you have sharp scissors. They can really help!
• Have plenty of room to work in.

I start by getting all my coupons together and each section separated.














Then I take each section and separate them by pages.














Then I take separate each page and stack them together for cutting.










Once you have all five pages together I cut the whole group at one time. A whole lot less cutting but BE CAREFUL! As they say in carpentry "Measure twice, cut once." Check your coupons before you cut. Sometimes they don't line up so you will have to adjust. And hold the pages tight so they don't slip.

I have found that doing this has saved me so much time especially if you can find someone to do the sorting for you! Thanks to my Hubby!!!! That is his job.
