29 Years Later Coupon Carrier Still Inspires Clippers to Super Savings: Hangs on Shopping Cart Handle for Hands-free Convenience

Patty Sachs, invented Coupons Ala Cart in 1980. Upon running out of marketing budget she set it aside until now, when the need for an easy coupon organizer and carrier has elevated to giant proportions, to meet today's budget restrictions.



    MINNEAPOLIS, MN, August 10, 2009 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Coupons Ala Cart was innovated by Patty Sachs, inveterate entrepreneur in 1980 and marketed locally. Due to the high cost of print advertising, the project was dropped but not forgotten. The handy carrier/organizer's design is a boon to discount coupon users--a community growing at rocket-speed due to the current economy. This sturdy cardboard organizer holds dozens of efficiently categorized coupons and hangs on the handle of the shopping cart. Just think! Shoppers can avoid those over-flowing envelopes, accordian-fold files or unwieldy notebooks--plus the impatient glances from shoppers behind them in the check-out line.

Today's huge popularity of coupon redemption has inspired, Sachs, a 71 year old bargain-hunting devotee, to manufacture and market the still-viable design. "Back in the day, I was the Twin Cities Coupon Queen. I organized coupon trading and refunding clubs and even opened a store-front savings center" says, Sachs. She concluded, "After 29 years the timing is much better and the Internet opens doors to affordable marketing and promotion."

Valuable coupons can be found in newspapers, magazines, flyers and mailed packs. In addition, dozens of sites offer e-mail updates of coupons that can be printed out for current use. A huge list of such sites can be found at http://www.partyplansplus.com/couponsites.htm

Coupons Ala Cart Features:

** The roomy carton holds all coupons that "might ever" be used--not just those for the current week's shopping list.

** The carton comes with a dozen dividers and category labels.

** The sturdy cardboard carton's cover rolls back over the cart handle and attaches underneath the box with Velcro to secure it.

** When not in use, the cover fastens shut for a nice compact carrier that can be kept on hand, coupons undisturbed, ready for impromptu shopping stops.
