If you are putting up a story for things that are important, you should probably download those memories separately too. Snapchat allows you to revisit a story and download it (first into Memories and then to your phone).
Most of my friends use the stories feature to upload pics of drinks or silly videos that don't deserve to be saved on disk anyway.
