Back in August, I decided I was overwhelmed by trying to cut out all my coupons and decided to go back to keeping my inserts intact and cutting as I needed them. I found a cute tote at Nordstrom Rack (similiar to this one) that works perfectly.
The only problem I found was I didn’t know which inserts were expired so I was carrying some around long after I needed them. Since I’m guessing some of you might have the same problem, I decided that each weekI will post which inserts are expiring for the coming week.
Keep in mind that I base this information off of the inserts I receive in Seattle and your inserts may have different coupons. Use this list as a guide, but you may also want to flip through your inserts to ensure all the coupons are expired.
With the end of the year and the end of the month, there are a ton of inserts that expire tomorrow (12/31/2011):
8/21 SmartSource
8/28 SmartSource
9/11 SmartSource (1 & 2)
9/18 SmartSource
9/18 RedPlum
9/25 SmartSource
9/25 RedPlum
10/2 RedPlum
11/27 P&G
I also had a couple inserts that had already expired:
8/28 RedPlum
10/2 General Mills
10/16 P&G
10/30 P&G
If you are hanging on to any inserts prior to 8/21, you’ll have to check them yourselves (but there is a pretty good chance they will be expired/expiring).
I hope that you find this helpful! Get busy pulling out your expired coupons and getting ready for 4 (or 5 depending on your are) inserts in the 1/1/2012 paper! Plus Albertson’s Twice the Value coupons.
