Supplies for your coupon binder

I thought I would put together a list of places where you can find different items for your coupon binder. Hopefully it's useful for someone.

Here is what I have in my binder:

4 inch zippered binder with a strap
Divider Tabs
9 slot sheet protectors
8 slot sheet protectors
6 slot sheet protectors
4 slot sheet protectors (great to hold the rainchecks from Kroger) and I have another set of 4 slot sheets protectors that are great for the internet printed coupons.
8.5x11 sheet protectors (for store policies, bigger coupons for mall stores, and rebate forms)
highlighter
pen
small calculator

Ok so I'm a little bit anal with how I have my binder organized. I currently have it organized by sections in the store, followed by store coupons and store policies, then rebate forms, restaurant coupons, and a price list. I haven't had the patience to create a full price list yet. This is my goal to one day have a very detailed price list for items found at my local stores. The price list is a list of prices for all the items you would buy at every store that you would shop at. This will help a TON when trying to figure out if something is a "good deal" or not.

I purchased my first zippered binder on clearance after the back to school shopping season. I've since outgrown it and had to upgrade to one that was about 4 times bigger.

Here is the binder I currently have...

Case-it D-185 XLarge Capacity Zipper Binder with 5-Tab File Folder - Red

I bought it on Amazon with the money I had earned from Swagbucks and Checkpoints. I paid $24.99 for it. It is really big.

Here is the 3" version for $17.99.

Case-it Large Capacity Blue Zipper Binder (D-145)

Here is a 2" version for $12.99

Case-it D-250 Zipper Binder, Purple Size - 13 X 12 X 2.8 inches

For the inserts, I have found them on Ebay and Amazon. I purchased my baseball card inserts from a card store about 3 years ago. I know Target and Wal-mart also sells them.

Here are the page sizes that I have...
