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!

    What a beautiful introduction. I'm in Houston and followed you here from JANE4girls $800. I don't know if I will find the $3 coupons for the rice or not...are they the yellow HEB coupons or a tearpad? Thanks a lot for looking out for Erin. I really like her. If you need anything just leave a comment on my blog and I will try to help.

    Tammy I updated my post with pictures of the coupon thanks to the lead from Christy.

    Thanks again Christy for the heads up on the deal!

    Hey Christy,

    Thanks again for telling Erin about the rice deal. I went today and there were a stack of yellow coupons sitting on the shelf. I bought 5 and left the rest. I also picked up a copy of the HEB My Texas Life Sept. issue on my way out the door. When I got home and thumbed through it imagine my surprise when I found another coupon for the rice in it. The coupon expires tomorrow though. Thanks again, we love this rice.

    Our Kroger has the Adolphus rice on sale for $1 and there are $.55 coupons in a recent insert (SS 9/13).

    Have a great week and Thanks again.

    Hey guys! Well, I hit HEB today and picked up lots of goodies to post. Maybe too many goodies! It will take me a little longer than I thought to get the hang of this but I'll get there. I'm new to blogging so I'm trying to find my feet.

    Christy
