How to Create a Home Management Binder ~ Part 4

Part 4 ~ Meal Planning & Coupons

Welcome to Part 4 of the How to Create A Home Management Binder series. Today I am going to show you the meal planning section of my binder, as well as the coupon section. Now I have two parts to my meal planning section. In the first part I put the actual meal planner printables. In the second part I put my grocery/to buy lists. 

I use a few different free meal planning printables I have found around the web. The first one I would like to share with you is from Buttoned Up. It is a great meal planner with space for both writing in what you are planning to make each day of the week, plus a shopping list. I use this printable if I don't have a huge shopping order that week.

The planner I use most often is the one from The Joy Cottage. I love this one because I can write in the ingredients for each meal so that I can make sure I have everything I will need. Plus there is room for all three meals of the day.

Another printable I use, especially for school days is a lunch planner from Hello Cuteness. It is great for planning school lunches.

Now for the second part of my meal planning section, the grocery list. The one that I use most often because there is a place to check off if you are using a coupon is the list from Pinch A Little Save A Lot.

However, you can also find another list at Scattered Squirrel. 

Next, I would like to share my coupon section of my binder. To keep track of my coupons I created a coupon tracker printable which you can DOWNLOAD HERE. I did this because I was finding that I either forgot I had a coupon {and it expired}, and because when I need a specific coupon I can just check to see quickly if I have it in my coupon holder.

You can also find a different coupon tracker at Mrs. January. However, I found that printable to be a bit too complicated. But it may work better for you.
