Anything in your house that would typically need replacing in whatever time span you want to prep for. Anything that disappeared from stores last Spring is a good starting point.

The most common items are every day stuff that you shop for regularly but can extend out to things like shoes. I save my old work boots and my shoe size hasn’t changed in 35 years. I could use 100 pair of socks though. LOL

I’ve been meaning to put some sort of list together based on order of importance and/or length of shtf event.

Then there’s things like utilities, communications, defense, meds and first aid supplies.
I bought seeds last year but ended up being too busy finishing the perimeter because I bought meat goats with covid stimulus check. Bought more seeds this year but need to build a good fence around the garden area still as it’s inside the perimeter fence with the goats. At least I’m stocked up on seeds though and I buy strictly heirloom. Most come from rareseeds.com aka Baker Creek. They’re in MO as am I so I know they’re acclimated to this climate.

Just peeking in between beans, corn and tomatoes. Lots of good info to which I’ll add: batteries :)
