SavvyCents Wallet Review & Giveaway!*CLOSED*

We all like saving money and I am the Coupon Queen of the family.As~I have so many coupons and I will not go the store without them.But~I am not as organized as everyone thinks that I am as I throw the coupons in a little holder that I have and then sort them as I need them.You should see me at the store,looking at products and then seeing if I have a coupon..Yes~it is very time consuming and I knew that I needed help with my coupon clipping.
That is where Savvycents comes in~as it is a great Savvycents wallet is not only functional but also fashionable.

Savvycents was first formed in January of 2009 after Melinda Claudpierre read a book about becoming debt free and following the cash envelope system of budgeting. 
Frustrated with paper envelopes and disorganization with her wallet, she wanted to create a wallet that would allow her to keep her cash in separate categories and also give quick access to her drivers license, coin holder, and all of her discount cards and coupons. The Savvycents wallet allows you to have all these thing in an attractive wallet that every woman would love to carry.

Savvycents Wallet Features~

  • Accordion style file system inside the wallet to separate money and coupons and receipts
  • File cards where you can label each category with  pre-printed labels or customize the blank labels
  • Coin pocket on the backside of the wallet
  • 6 pockets for credit, debit cards and store discount cards
  • 2 open view slots for driver’s license or ID
  • Snap closure on accordian file and zipper closure on wallet
  • Wallet measures 8” x 4
  • Available in Red~Black or Pink patent leather.
 And~I have some Super News as Melinda at Savvycents is offering one of my readers to win a Pink Savvycents wallet of their own!

  123. I am a stay at home mom of 2 babies and have to be careful with money. I am not embarrased to take hand me down clothes from family members with kids. I yard sale for car seats, toys, and other large items that I don't want to buy brand new. When it comes to birthday time I make everything myself from the decorations to the cake. I don't spend on uneccesary items.
