Going shopping tomorrow, gonna sink some of this months paycheck in a bunch of stuff that'll be more worthwhile in the long run if SHTF than this disposable paper. Wondering if anyone had any sources, tips or info they'd like to pass along before I go out.

1 - Guns and ammo.

2- water & water purification. Get a few case of water and pick up some bleach or chlorine tablets for a pool. The tablets are awesome because they will last forever. Wait until you have food and other items before you stockpile other means of water purification.

3 - calories/food. Get a few cases of ramen noodles. Break down the cases and put them in some 5-gallon buckets with lids. The 5-gallon buckets will protect your food and come in very handy if the SHTF. Also remember that dehydrated food needs water, so it wouldn’t hurt to pick up some canned soups, chili, etc.

Canning food and dehydrating is great, as are stockpiling medical items, bandages, blankets, tarps, rope/cordage, etc. just start with the basics if you haven’t done much prepping: guns/ammo, water/water purification, and food.

Edit: and as a few others have mentioned: Fire! Almost forgot…get some bic lighters for short term, if you are gonna prep for a while get a ferro rod
