And now the Family understands why I am always trying to stockpile Potable H2O in 2 & 3 liter size soda bottles and 1.75L Liquor bottles (they are much sturdier than soda bottles) with a few drops of CL2 (Chlorine) in each. Everyone thought I was crazy and several other things, UNTIL NOW !!! Not sure if they are completely on board yet but learning.
All OTC Meds and All the Rx quantity thats possible. And First Aid Kits (and not just a few bandaids either.)
Food, same thing. Stockpile Canned everything, Dried goods like Pastas, Beans & other Legumes, Fruits, Nuts, Critter Food (Dogs in My World),Butter, Milk powder & the liquid survival type, Sweetened Condensed, Evaporated, powdered drink mixes, beer, Liquor assortment, soups, Staples like: Flour- A/P, Bread, Wheat, Yeast in bulk (Ive seen several FReepers in the last week that were either out or couldnt find in store), Sugar in 25/50 pound bags (its way cheaper that way), Brown Sugar, Chocolate Chips, Vanilla in Big bottle and then get small ones to top up the big one, Salt of all types and lots of it. Anything else that You and Yours might like.
All Paper Products, lighters both pocket and extended types, Diapers, Wipes, Bleach or better yet Pool Shock in Liquid Form to dilute down to bleach strength, soaps...
Ammunition and Firearms, even Ammunition that may not be for any Firearms You have because its ALWAYS good to have for Trade/Barter.
And remember any and all items are trade/barter options.
“Dried goods like Pastas, Beans & other Legumes, Fruits, Nuts, “
I’ve got 40 lbs of couscous/black lentils/green lentils/split pea. Another 30 lbs of dried fruits and nuts.
Look up www.ifsbulk.com
They ran outta beans or I’d have another 30 lbs.
You were always right to stockpile and never let the ‘grasshoppers’ of the world tell you differently.
I discovered my prepping has holes in it and will use this experience to up my game.
Nicely done.
