Brenda,

Thanks for reminding me about the sales tax free weekend. San Antonio is a great place to visit and for that matter to live. We where there last weekend and love going to either san Antonio or Austin areas. Free or cheap things to do are always of interest.

Brenda, I had never heard of this site. In the era of budgets, tight money, low cost entertainment options are a big deal. Thanks.

HI George-I would imagine with the school year starting, it would be soon!

Hi Wayne-It's not just entertainment, it's all kinds of stuff one can save on or get for free, (my favorite!). I thought it pretty neat :)!
