It’s all common sense stuff.
One other item is a special fuel reserve for labor saving tools. Many will have gas for a generator, ATV or other vehicle, but IMO the most important fuel supply is for that chainsaw, log splitter, air compressor or garden tiller.
Just think, winter has set in and while you are struggling to get that firewood hand chopped and split you get sick from exhaustion. When your priorities were to keep the generator running or to drive around spent all fuel supplies.
This is a separate fuel supply and off limits except for those special uses.
Another special use reserve would be for a bug out vehicle. If your situation becomes such that you have to abandon all and just get out, that gas could come in handy.

Cloth. I’m always short of cloth. And for a long time, it seemed like there were never enough left leg armor pieces. It’s like the damned raiders were partly one-legged.

They make filters that do both. Evey on seems to think that you will just need to boil water, but there will be all kinds of chemicals and runoff that boiling it just won’t do the job.
You need something like a Berkey especially if you are needing water for more than one or two people.

for Christmas I asked for ammo-
better yet, for Someone to tell me where I can
get22LR,357mag- without getting ripped off-
Santa did not come with my present-
So had people over for the football games and mentioned
I did not get my present!- they asked why I wanted more
ammo- I MENTIONED that it WILL SOON be TAXED out of REASON, or banned! by O’bummer- in unison they said the
president can’t do that.... then O’bummer got back
from vacation-
Bummer for me

I am not sure that would work as Laz is sure to get screwed either way.

You need something like a Berkey especially if you are needing water for more than one or two people. Agreed. They are the best.
Number 9 is something I'm dealing with now. I would suggest coconut oil and storage in a cold, dry and dark location. Mine are in a basement that stays at or below 60 degrees.
I have been testing mine and found the oldest (four years past expiration) are just fine with no discoloration, odor or signs of rancidity.
I have been removing industrial oils from my diet for the past few years.
Number 10 is another one I have doubts about. Who the heck is going to have time in a SHTF situation. It is going to be a very busy and brutal life. Sleeping aids will be more appropriate. You are going to want to sleep in what little time you have.

I was reading about the blizzard that hit out here in the west during the 40’s. Snow was so deep and drifted so bad that people were stranded for 4 weeks or more. Huge livestock animal losses but not human.
I thought, if that happened today....

Heirlooms Seeds......is the first thing on the list?????
