A 10-gallon cowboy hat tip to Colleen Pence, the mastermind behind San Antonio Mom Blogs, for giving me the idea of creating this list of free things to do and see in San Antonio from all of my San Antonio Tourist blog posts. Colleen has created a Free in San Antonio Pinterest page that you’ll want to check out.
Even though I was not a child of the Depression, my mother was, so I was raised looking for bargains. You can’t get much more frugal than FREE. San Antonio offers a wealth of free things to do and see for fun, like the gorgeous Japanese Tea Gardens pictured above. Do you have any other favorite freebies I should add? Please post a comment below. ¡Viva San Antonio!
