Momcepts Koala Pouch, List Caddy & Koalabiner Purse Hanger Review & Giveaway ENDED

by | Sep 23, 2010 | Giveaways | 80 comments

This post may contain affiliate links. See my disclosure policy for more details.

Product Name: Koala Pouch

A stylish eco-conscious shopping organizer that fits securely over any shopping cart handle to hold EVERYTHING the grocery shopper needs. It has:

•A dedicated pocket with index cards to keep coupons and shopping lists organized
•A roomy see-through pocket for easy access to your mobile phone
•A pocket with two stylish and spacious reusable bags so you’ll never forget them again!
•Enough space for a List Caddy, Koalabiner, keys, money, debit/credit cards etc. (a great idea for those who’d rather leave their purse at home or in the car while they shop)
•A pen/pencil holder

Product Price: $14.95

Purchase Information: You can purchase it online at Amazon and Momcepts.com.

My Thoughts: I really like this.  I usually keep my coupon binder in the seat in front of me along with my purse.  I like the Koala Pouch so much better mostly because it stayed in place and was so much easier to look through and pull things out.  I only needed one hand!  Very helpful when shopping with children.

Product Name: Koalabiner Purse Hanger

This is a must-have accessory for all purse toting grocery shoppers and moms. The Koalabiner is a super sturdy carabiner that clips purses securely to any shopping cart or stroller handle to free up cart space and provide easy access for the shopper, and difficult access for kids or purse snatchers. It also is great for securing reusable bags while shopping, and for clipping full grocery bags together to prevent items from spilling out.

Product Price: $4.95

Purchase Information: You can purchase it online at Amazon and Momcepts.com.

My Thoughts: I love this!  I actually use it not only for my purse but for my reusable bags.  If there is a cup holder on my shopping cart, I hang the bags from there until I need them but if there’s not then I have nothing to hang them from.  Well not any more!  This purse hanger is extremely helpful.  I also feel that my purse is safer since someone can’t just grab it out of my shopping cart… they’d have to get it out of the purse hanger first and I doubt they’d be able to figure that out quick enough.

_________________________________________________

Product Name: List Caddy

A sturdy list, coupon and pencil holder that snaps onto shopping cart handles and attaches to refrigerators for easy list and coupon management.

Product Price: $1.99

Purchase Information: You can purchase it online at Amazon and Momcepts.com

    Desperately need this, I have no system at all, I’m new to couponing and I think this could help

  23. Elizabeth B on September 24, 2010 at 12:20 pm

    I’m new to couponing, so I’m not that organized yet. Maybe this would help me!

  24. Elizabeth N. on September 25, 2010 at 7:32 am

    I am not that organized when I shop. I do make my list ahead and paperclip the coupons I need to it. I also put a star next to any items that have a coupon – so I know to get that exact thing. I really want to get more organized to help me save money!

    I keep all my coupons in my coupon folder with all the ones I’m planning on using for that trip in the front. It sits in my purse, which stays in the front of the cart. I sometimes have to double check the specifications of the coupon, so it can be a little time-consuming! I wish I had a more efficient method.

    when I go grocery shopping then I bring 3 huge file holders (envelope style) where I organize all my coupons alphabetically (this is awesome for closeouts, mark downs, manager specials)

    and a coupon purse where I bring the coupons what I am gonna definitely use according to my shopping list

    I use an accordian style folder and divide according to food groups.

  74. Salleefur/Jesslyn on October 4, 2010 at 6:14 pm

    My rather primitive coupon/shopping system is totally dependent on my weird (highly selective) “photographic memory”.

    After I’ve shopped somewhere only once I usually have the whole store layout memorized – so I write my shopping lists based on the specific store’s layout and organize my coupons (in a plain old envelope) in the same order.)

    It works out OK – but there is plenty of room for improvement (and a new store or when a store remodels causes a mini-meltdown in my sanity!
