Unlike last February when I started getting ready for the end of the world, kek, this year to repopulate my shelves I have been more selective about what I buy. I have 3 criteria:

  1. It must be shelf stable

  2. It must be something that my family will eat on a normal non SHTF day

  3. It must be at least 40% off

Every Wednesday when I take my boys to Kung Fu practice I have an hour to visit the big store there and walk all of the isles looking for stuff that meets my criteria, the loss leaders that these big retail chains offer just to get you in the door has been very helpful. I don't buy any of their other stuff just the cheap good stuff that meets my needs so fuck them.

For example today I picked up 27 juice boxes (right section, 3rd shelf down, blue box) at a 50% discount; I got 12 bottles of Heinz ketchup (same shelf) at a 45% discount; 12 cans of hot dogs at a 69% discount and a box of Oreos for 50% off (right section 2nd shelf down). Today was a good day.

We will be rotating all of this into our normal food plans and will be saving an actual bundle; if SHTF we should be fine for about 4-5 months.

So niggers, give it to me straight, what am I missing and what am I doing right?

I have 3 shelves full and 18 buckets of just add water food. Have 3 50gallon rain barrels and I also vacuum foodseal all flour, sugar, rice, beans, coffee in usable portions to not open a bulk container.

Tip: for vacuum seals.

Use paper bags to portion, place one bay leaf inside (bugs away), and tape top down. Allow for air in paper bag, or the vaccumm sealer will suck the contents in unit. Place paper bag in sealer bag. Use unit.

Buy a manual table grinder for corn, coffee, or beans. French press for coffee. Buy bone scissors for hunting. Easier than a knife for some parts.

I'll be canning this summer. I already ate all my canning up.

One thing to stock is matches, and good knives and scissors, candles, iodine, bandaids.

I also have liquor (vodka, whiskey, and a bit of everclear) and tobacco hidden by the case for barter if needed. Those will be looted first, weed of course will too.

Have a bug out bag made, and have weapons for defense. I have 3 30gallon gas cans and I also bought emp protection for both vehicles but have not installed them yet.

Sounds like you are set.

I did vacuum seal the flour and pasta and the rice should be fine since it is in sealed plastic bags inside an unsealed plastic container (it hasn't been a problem yet).

EMP protection you are way ahead of me there, I will just have to hoof it if that happens.
