Where I live, it’s bread, milk and TOILET PAPER. Do people only buy one roll at a time? Cracks me up every time.

The last time I bought TP was several years ago. I have a spacious basement. NH is nearby and lacks a sales tax. Same for paper towels.

Shampoo? Deodorant? Toothpaste? Internet beats brick and mortar. Order enough to avoid shipping (and sales taxes)!

I’m not a prepper to the extent many Freepers are, but I learned to be well stocked after my first winter on my own. That winter was brutal. Snow up to our eyeballs plus subzero temperatures for almost 3 months. Today, I have enough paper products and other non-perishables to last till the rapture. The freezer is well stocked too, but in the event of a power failure, I have two primary staples — peanut butter and crackers. Nutritious and don’t need refrigeration. If it’s cold enough, my unheated garage works well as a refrigerator.

Just save up a few back years of telephone books! The paper is pulp and not slick like the old SEARS catalog.
