Welcome to San Antonio Saver!

Hi there everyone! My name is Christy. I'm a stay at home mom with a burning desire to eat well without breaking the bank. My main goal in doing this blog is simple: I will post the best grocery deals in San Antonio, including HEB, Sun Harvest and a few other markets that I have yet to scope out. HEB and Sun Harvest ads are published every Wednesday and run until Tuesday the following week so you will get a weekly post with the best deals and coupon information. Every Wednesday I will also post a suggested meal plan based on the ads, complete with recipes. I will also post a link to my family's meal plan for the week. Now you may ask, "why are they different"? I have a supply of food, AKA a stockpile, from which we eat and include fresh fruits and vegetables and sale items. As time goes on, you may find yourself building a stockpile of your own. Some deals are so good you will want to stock up for later use.

In addition to the weekly ads and meal plans, I'll also be putting up information about other deals from around the area including Target, Dollar Tree, World Market, ethnic markets, etc. There is another world outside of HEB and Sun Harvest. However, I understand that not everyone has the time or inclination to run all over town, trying to hunt down a couple of items. That is why you will get at least one post a week just covering HEB and Sun Harvest.

I will also be posting information covering local events that are either inexpensive or free including museums and parks as well as local events.

So, let's save some money, have some fun and learn more about our beautiful town!
