Omg Julia, you are amazing!!!! I think what discourages most people (like me) from using coupons is laziness
Hey you! You should join me sometime too, once you experience the savings you realize it’s well worth the time spent!
Just had to say that I LOVE that you’re local! There are many coupon/money-saving sites that I enjoy but yours is my fave because you shop at the same stores as I do. Thanks & keep up the good work. I’d love to shop with you one of these days. God bless!
Thanks Cathy! That would be fun! Seriously though, I’d love to do that. I had such a great time with Jenny today and I think it really helped her to see the things that I look out for when shopping.
Hello! Glad I found your site. I live in Pleasanton so it’s great to see local deals. What does OYNO mean? Also, I can’t get the coupons for the baking sticks or soup to print. Any suggestions?
Hi Carolyn, glad you found The Frugal Find! OYNO means On Your Next Order. As far as the coupons go, you will need to instal the coupon printer, I’d suggest starting at Coupons.com, the website will guide you step by step through the process and once it’s installed you shouldn’t have a problem printing coupons after that. Also, if you’re interested I teach Coupon Classes locally to cover this and many other topics. Nice to have you here!
I would definitely be interested in your Coupon Classes. I have wanted to, but I am just not sure how to best go about it.
I’ll send you an email Amy!
Julia, where is the steam fresh coupons. I can’t find the ones on a full cup. The blinkies I have say Steam fresh meals. Is that what you used???
They were little sheets/coupons that I found at Food Maxx I think (a while ago, for $1.00/ANY 2) Birds Eye products.
I can’t print the butter coupon from any of my computers. It keeps wanting to “install the coupon printer”, which I do (many times now) and still it won’t print. Might there be a different link for that one?
Sorry, disregard previous post. I found a coupon on the website for the butter product. $1/1. Gotta go get some butter!
Can you share the link where you found the coupon?
Nancy – There was a coupon in the red plum holiday on 11/15. I have had trouble installing coupon printers before. I found that it can take a long time for the installing to work and I would rush because I thought it wasn’t working.
Click where it says “Turn the tub around”. The coupon is $1/1 any ICBINB product.

Thanks, Wendy! Also, the Steamfresh blinkies are still at Safeway, saw them today, frozen veggie aisle.
Thanks for all the tips…I went to Safeway today, and did a lot your deals and some others, saved 72%, not incl. the $4.00 OYNO from the butter deal. Also went to Lucky and saved 85%! Do you ever shop at Lucky? I have been getting some good deals there.
Hey Amy, glad I can help! I don’t shop at Lucky often but I know I should! I will say that I often find better deals at Safeway, at least that’s been my experience. I’d love to hear what kind of deals you found at Lucky this week!
My best score at Lucky this past week was Kellogg’s Touch of Honey Corn Flakes, buy 4= $1.25 each, I had 2 $1.00 Q’s, and 2 $.50 Q’s, which was a great deal in itself, BUT I also found peelies on the boxes to get $1.00 in free produce , so $4.000 in produce free, and cereal for an average of $.30 a box. I am planning to use some of the cereal to make granola bars.
I went back to Safeway today to do some more of these same deals, and found that the Progresso soup sale ($5/4) goes through Nov. 26th. So, more time to get more free soup! Also, the butter deal is working well…I was able to print off about 12 coupons, and the CATS are rolling and I have been getting 2 CATS per visit. Not sure if you can get more, but I’m happy with 4 butters at a time.
