Save text and MMS messages

I'm going to do a factory reset tonight due to my battery life sucking. Is there anyway to save text and MMS messages? I usually use mybackup pro but am wanting to not use any sort of back up program and start fresh due to hearing that your battery life might be better that way. So any help? I don't want to use verizon's cloud service.
