ULTIMATE HOLIDAY GIFT GUIDE: Savvycents- For The Fashionably Frugal


Savvycents for the fashionably frugal!

Recently, I was given the opportunity to review a product called, Savvy Cents and they wanted to sponsor the Ultimate Holiday Gift Guide & Giveaway with a review & giveaway. This fabulous wallet is designed to help you be more frugal and organized with coupons. As an avid couponer, I was excited for the opportunity to review this wallet. I am also very conscious of my fashion and how I look. So, we will have to check this out.
Savvycents Wallet for use with the envelope budgeting systemThe wallet was created by, Melinda Claudepierre, who created Savvycents after reading 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 side viewI received my black Savvycents wallet in about a day, maybe two after speaking. Very quick! It was packed in a bubble envelope to protect from damage during shipping.
I was quite surprised when I opened the envelope and pulled out the wallet. What I found was a patent leather, beautiful, stylish, quality made wallet. Even the emblem was attractive. 
So, with the appearance checked, how was the functionality? The features are what really make this the most usable wallet, EVER. As an avid couponer and someone who enjoys being stylish, this is the wallet for me. 
Savvycents Budgeting WalletThere are some fabulous features to this wallet. In the back is a change section. There are coupon sections with customizable labels included, a pen holder, area for money, etc.  fit your list as well. The wallet is not huge, yet accommodates the coupons nicely by stretching to fill.
These fabulous wallets are available in three colors:




Black Patent Leather Wallet 

$24.99 






Pink Patent Leather Wallet 

$24.99 






Red Patent Leather Wallet 

$24.99 




This is a definite gift for many on my holiday list!

I would love to have the black one because I am in desperate need of organization. I am trying to get into couponing and either let them expire, forget them, or lose them altogether. Ugh. I actually just came in second in a messy purse contest. Lol.
