Put it on the H-E-Bit Card: Texas Grocer Launches Debit Card

H-E-B is arguably one of the most famous businesses in Texas. Walking into a H-E-B is like walking into another world sometimes. The chain really does fit the motto of "everything is bigger in Texas."

The business also continues to evolve with the times, even including self checkout lines most recently. But now Texas' favorite grocery chain will be offering something to customers that will help frequent shoppers save money on H-E-B products.

The H-E-B Debit Card

The company recently announced the creation of a debit card. The card's details were revealed in a post from the H-E-B News Room. The H-E-Bit card (as I'm nicknaming it) comes with customer benefits like:

- cash back on H-E-B products
- use as a spending card, with a savings account also available
- free cash withdrawals at H-E-B ATMs
- no fees to maintain

Rewards for Buying H-E-B Brand Items

The cash back benefit only will apply to H-E-B brand items. If you're an H-E-B regular, you know their stuff is usually just as good as, if not better than, the name brand items.

Vice President of Marketing, Ashwin Nathan, described what the card means to H-E-B customers in the press release:

“With the H-E-B debit card, customers can have a more rewarding shopping experience that allows them to keep more money in their pockets while enjoying valuable benefits and perks.”

So Glad I "Discovered" H-E-B

H-E-B having a debit card is actually very interesting, because some of the items we'd buy are things that I truly enjoy. When I first moved to Texas, I went to H-E-B and discovered something I now can't live without: the Pepperoni Lasagna. It was something I didn't even know I was craving until I had it for the first time. And now you're telling me I could save money while purchasing them?

We might have to sign up for this new debit card.

It's got to start somewhere, and Texas seems to be a great place from which to launch a tasty restaurant chain.

Bet You Didn't Know: 10 Bizarre Texas Laws Still on the Books

Many states still have strange laws on the books that aren’t enforced or taken seriously anymore, and Texas is no exception.

Most of these laws are just funny now, but at one time, there was a valid (or at least somewhat valid) reason for them to exist.

Texas has plenty of strange rules and regulations that you could technically be prosecuted for if you violate them, since they've never been amended. Some of these are only for specific cities and not state-wide, but all of them are pretty odd!

Let's take a look at 10 of the weirdest ones in the Lone Star State.

Top 20 Restaurants Central Texans Wish Would Come to Temple

A while back, I asked the good people of Temple if they could picture a good restaurant to fill the lot on North General Bruce Drive where the soon to be torn down Long John Silver's stood.

This was before it was announced that a Dutch Bros. Coffee location would open there (which was one of the places I predicted as a contender in our article).

So now Dutch Bros. is open in that spot, but the responses to my survey were interesting because they paint a picture of just how diverse Temple's population is. People recommended some familiar restaurants with locations in the surrounding area, but also a few I'd never even heard of.

Here are the top 20 results of the survey. Let's see what the good people of Temple are craving!
