Most major retailers have been chanting “Mother’s Day, Mother’s Day” for about three weeks now. I know, you get it, Mother’s Day is May 9. So with that in mind, why not break from the crowd and do your Mother’s Day shopping at …a grocery store?
Yep, you heard me right. Many grocery stores – and, specifically, H-E-B – have everything you need to make a great Mother’s Day. They have all the ingredients for a great meal, plus special treats like dipped strawberries, which are only available for a limited time.
H-E-B also has fresh, quality flowers; in fact, there’s an in-store coupon right now for $3 off a hand-tied bouquet or floral arrangement, plus a “Floral Combo Loco” – when you buy an “Always in My Heart” bouquet, you’ll get a free vase.
Does your special Mom like to shop? H-E-B has a wide selection of gift cards from major retailers. When you buy $50 in gift cards from H-E-B this week, you’ll get $5 off your next purchase. And if you’re looking to get creative with your celebration, H-E-B has a great list of ways to celebrate Mother’s Day.
Now, on to the giveaway. One of my lucky readers will receive a $20 gift card to H-E-B. (These gift cards also work at Central Market.) Here’s how to enter:
1. Leave a comment on this post telling me how you plan to celebrate Mother’s Day this year. This is a mandatory entry – in other words, using just the bonus methods won’t get you entered into the drawing at all.
2. (Bonus entry): Become a fan or “like” Fort Worth on the Cheap on Facebook. If you’re already a fan, leave a separate comment saying so.
3. (Bonus entry): Tweet this on Twitter: “Win a $20 H-E-B gift card from @fwcheap! https://bit.ly/aPxNGs” . Then leave a separate comment with a link to the Tweet.
I’ll take entries through 11:59 a.m. on Monday, May 10. At that time, I’ll use a random number generator to draw for the gift card. You must be a Texas resident to enter.
Good luck!
Disclosure: H-E-B provided the information about their store specials in the post, and provided the gift card to give away. I did not receive any other compensation from H-E-B for this post.
I am hoping to celebrate with getting to sleep in, it’s been awhile. Then my boys are going to take me out to lunch! I really don’t want to do much, but get to spend time with my boys, just playing!
I am already a fan of Fort Worth on the Cheap and I love it. The What To Do weekend updates are awesome!
I plan to make my wife and mother some smoked chickens and grilled corn on the cob, a salad, and a cake and then hang out at home for Mother’s Day.
Also already a fan of Fort Worth on the Cheap.
We will be heading to church, then to a yummy brunch at Mimi’s Cafe. Followed by me getting to take a nap, then it’s on to dinner made by my hubby!
I’m already a fan on Facebook :o)

i tweeted about the giveaway!
If I won $20 from HEB (or Central Market) I would buy some wrinkle cream or hair color to hopefully make me look younger than the age my kids make me feel – but I wouldn’t trade them for the world. I just have to reply on commercial products to make me look young again!
Just found your site and am so excited to come back every day! If I won this, I would pick up some supplies for at-home-pedi’s!
I plan to celebrate Mother’s Day this year by taking my mom out to dinner!
I’m a fun of FT W on the Cheap! We are aving a Mother’s Day luncheon and providing a patio refresher with flowers for Mother.
My daughter and I went to my sister’s house and made breakfast for our mother. We all had a very nice visit!
