The main thing is start small. You don't need to buy a lot of food. Buy a little every time you go to the store. A can of corn beef hash. A box of powdered milk. A case of bottled water. Store it away from your usual food.

A camp stove can usually be found used if not you can buy one at the end of camping season on sale. You will also want a couple of sources of light.

You want to prepare for a small emergency first. And it is a good idea to cut the electricity to your house for a couple of days to test your preparations.

As time goes by you will find that you gather more items and you learn what you need and what is so much fluff.

A garden is a good idea. If you are looking at your husband losing his job then a small or not-so-small stash of food is a great comfort.

most, like my kid, have a hard enough time counting money,figuring out times,understanding that a checkbook isn't endless money...lol....

It's not that it's hard for them, it's because they can't understand why that stuff is important :-)
