Its better to pick up things for trading right now that you know will have value.

alcohol, small single serve bottles and cans

cigarettes.

cigarettes will be currency

batteries

salt/spices

garbage bags

many of these have a small footprint and you can pack a lot of them in a small space. plus many of them you may be able to use yourself

Good list. I started a collection of alcohol for trading but wife drank it over the last year. Had some mini bottles as well. Need to start again, but this time I need to buy stuff she can’t stand... like gin.

thanks for the list

Sewing needles are a good one to stock up on. You can fit hundreds of them into a pill bottle, but they’re essential for both clothing repair and for stitching closed wounds.

Garbage bags for the bodies? Just askin’.....
