Ammo and food would be the new currency. I put them in that order because if you don’t have ammo, you can’t protect yourself or your food. If it ever happens, I expect to be able to barter ammo for food.

Ammo and food, certainly, but also other things like toilet paper, gasoline, off-the-grid supplies and equiptment...Pretty much anything and everything that people take for granted now that will not be available easily or at all when the SHTF.

"Ammo and food would be the new currency"

Here you are going to need this.


I was promised a bullet by a fellow FReeper for suggesting that ammo would be'currency' should I meet during SHTF. AND YES I AM SERIOUS.

And have it used back on you? Not a good idea.
