I find it impossible to organise my favourites so when I am browsing and I see a good idea/site/opportunity instead of adding to favs I mail home a link to an address that my Outlook is set up to sort to a folder.
eg Anything I send to ideas@mydomain.com goes into my Ideas folder.
Add this address to your address book to make it easy and give it a name like £urfmoney so it's handy at the top of the list.
Once a week or so I can review my trawlings.
Hope you find it useful.

Interesting idea you had there. Just goes to show you there is more than one way to skin a cat.
Most people are not aware of this (I am assuming you are using Internet Explorer...you used the word Favorites) that you can click on the Favorites button which opens up a sidebar on the left side of the browser with all of your Favorites in them.
Okay most people probably know that part. Here are some additional things you can do while the sidebar is open. Both of these tips require that you click, hold the click, then drag.
Tip #1 - Once the sidebar is open, you can click on the Icon next to the Url in the address bar and drag it to any folder you have set up in your Favorites folder. Quick and easy....no muss, no fuss.
Tip #2 - You can sort your Favorites very easily inside of the sidebar. Click on any folder (or favorite link) and drag it to the position that you want it to be in.
