Prepper ping
“Maple syrup”? LOL…I’ve even a prepper for decades and didn’t even know it!
Thanks for posting.
Most people will starve when the supplies run out . Very, very few have the ability to raise, grow, gather and preserve enough calories to sustain life over an extended period of time.
Stocks of canning lids, salt, seeds, animal feed, vinegar and such won’t last long.
You're gonna live forever, the most important thing is ... Location, location , location..
Good list. Ammo will be the most valuable barter item.
Booze, coffee, sugar, salt, seasonings, these are things people will always need.
Basic food they will be getting somewhere already or they won’t be there at all, but the government won’t be handing out booze, and coffee would probably not be coming into the country, and modern people will be craving sweetness and their sugar fix.
I don’t understand maple syrup. It makes me gag. Must be a regional taste.

The first week or so, maybe longer it’s gonna be wild, get under good cover and stay out of sight. Be prepared to eliminate ANY threats and be sure to dispose of the remains so as to not draw attention to yourself. After the shooting dies down be ultra cautious how you expose yourself when you check your perimeter. Pray.
4” pipe is arguably too small.
Recommend 6” or larger.
Many important items fit best in >6” pipe.
And add shoes to the list. Most everyone walks around in cheap glued together Chinese crap for footwear.
Replacement footwear is important for you and barter.
" ..Our national descent into the hellish landscape of climate hysteria, virulent Jew-hatred in the streets, and Marxist-Leninist despotism continues unabated.
Due to runaway inflation and the massive federal debt, the dollar’s value has shrunk like a cheap cotton towel washed in hot water.
Weekly grocery bills and energy costs have almost doubled since 2021, while real wage growth has declined due to the economic strangulation of progressive bureaucratic regulation and nonexistent congressional oversight."
"Combine this bleak economic outlook with our Obama-approved, hate-America-first, failed foreign policy, and you have the likely possibility of a severe economic depression
during a time of multiple foreign military engagements. (Stolen elections have predicable consequences!)"
"How do you prepare for such an awful confluence of events? By accepting and acting upon the real possibility of food, water, energy, and medical supplies shortages in the months ahead.
There are plenty of articles, videos, and social media posts that deal with the basics of prepping.
Today, I’m suggesting acquiring overlooked items that may greatly aid in the rough times ahead."
" 1. Real maple syrup. This household staple can be used for barter and for your own food preparation.
Sealed in small glass bottles or in those beige plastic jugs, maple syrup requires no refrigeration and can be bartered in small quantities.
Most preppers have five-gallon buckets of oatmeal in their pantry, but few include maple syrup (and cinnamon)
to flavor their cooked cereal or cookies. Maple syrup will always be in high demand."
" 2. 4” PVC pipe with assorted end caps, oxygen-absorbers, and desiccant packs.
Many Americans will want to protect and hide small high-value items such as pocket pistols, ammo,
thumb drives, hard drives, family documents, passports...
(The article continues, as well as written comments, at the web source "hot link" - well worth the viewing,consideration, and implementation)
Condoms will be in demand too. I have some in my stash to use as barter.
