| Hello consumeristas, Have you received a text message that appears to be from FedEx – telling you about a package for pickup? My husband did, too. Unfortunately, it’s the latest scam going around – so verify before you click on any links that lead to trouble. We have a little more information about that here . 12-On-Your-Side is all about saving you money. So, have you cut the cord ? It really can be a good way to shave that TV bill, but it’s not a big saver for everyone. Some people may be better off sticking with cable or satellite. It all depends on which and how many streaming services you want to subscribe to. Here’s your guide to FREE KSAT-TV news, specials and shows At my house, in addition to KSAT ( of course) we have to have various sports, home improvement, movies, science and news channels. There are some websites that can help you sort out what services will work best for you. I used suppose.tv , but there are others you can Google. Of course, a good antenna for local TV is your budget option. Cutting through streaming TV video confusion This week, we kicked off a series I’m excited about: Small Business Stories . From time to time, we’ll visit a local small business to find out what prompted their idea, what challenged them and what advice they would pass along to other budding entrepreneurs. If you know of a small business with an interesting story, I’d love to hear about it. You can check out Original EOB here . The jewelry is pretty, affordable and smells good! If you have expired or unused medications you’d like to get rid of, consider dropping them off Saturday morning at MedDropSA’s site. The address is 2755 Rigsby. They ask you to dump pills into a zipper storage bag, and do not bring needles. I know it’s tempting to flush them, but do we really want them in the water supply? Neither the Texans nor the Cowboys are in the Super Bowl , but it can still be fun to watch – especially on a big ol’ brand new TV! This year, the game is being broadcast for the first time in 4K HDR. So, just in time for the game, there will be deals on all sizes of screens. This could be the most expensive Super Bowl ever with ticket prices soaring TVs aside, the retail industry is expecting some serious spending on bowl-watching parties. They expect consumers to spend $17.2 billion on food, beverages and other party stuff. That’s a lot of beer and wings!
