I recommend that one stocks a lot of liquor. Not only does liquor have good shelf life but it will be a very marketable commodity in time of crisis. Also portable and great for trade and such.

A good component of a survival kit would be 144 cases of corn whiskey, 12 cases fine wine, and as much tequila and vodka you can get your hands on.

I collect booze for storage and I just bought 34 bottles of this at $5.00 per bottle clearance.

This site sells it for $38.00 shipped.

Vodka is a great antiseptic/sterilizer also...right?

Whiskeys and other spirits are always easy to store (I have a half-full bottle of absinthe which has been in my family since before the stuff was banned). Wine, though, needs more careful storage. Fortified wines are safer investments in that regard - avoiding spoilage is the very reason that Port wine exists.

Yah, right. I'll sell off all my Gold Eagles and Krugerands and get right on that shopping list. Booze ain't cheap. Gold is a smarter investment. Lots of 1 gram gold bars.

Besides that, having a ready supply of hooch in the basement makes for much too large a temptation.     =;^)

Add a group of trained friends... 12 AR’s... 50,000 rounds of 5.56 NATO... 15 good looking women and 20 cases of trojans. When I think of more...

Well Sam, we have stocked rice, beans, flours, grains, oil, dried veggies and dries meat, canned tuna, etc. But I come from a family that makes tons of wine. We have grapes ahoy and my brother in law makes lots, I mean gallons upon gallons. I have also bought my first wine kit and am going to make a few gallons myself. We also freeze juice and we have gas run generators. WE have done pretty much all we can do. God will do the rest. Make sure also that you have at least a 30 day supply of shampoo, soap etc. the essentials basically. The rest as I said, is up to our God. and frankly I trust Him to bring those of us who know him, through what is coming. My prayers and blessings I send to you and I mean it. CO

That's a great idea I never thought of. Can also act as a pain killer!

Also good for sterilizing wounds! Vinegar can be used to treat bruises, sunburn, some stomach ailements and cuts.

Stock up on TP! it might be worth it’s weight in gold. LOL

Salt with iodine, ground pepper for basic seasonings. Veggie seeds too. Store in dry place.

Shampoo, bar soap, laundry soap are the biggest price climbers here recently. Bleach is a must for killing germs, both on surfaces and in water.
