One of the things that I get when I'm putting away preps is barter goods. It's stuff that I'm going to want to have around anyway, but I get it in small units that would also be easy to trade (or bribe) with. This is the sort of things that I've thought about (I don't talk about what I actually have on the net)
- Mini lighters
- Tea candles
- Toilet Paper
- Cheap makeup
- Salt and pepper packets.
- Airline bottles of booze.
- Toenail clippers
- Travel bottles of shampoo
- Small rolls of duct tape.
- Those tiny sewing kits (or maybe the $4-5 Family Dollar ones)
- USB battery banks (I try to grab the ones that are less than $10 -- intend to do a sort of deposit/exchange program on those, because I'll have the solar.)
- Those $10 jogging FM/AM radios
- Cheap folding knives
Any other ideas? I can't be the only one who comes up with shit that no one else thinks about. (Ammo and silver coins we already know about, that's not barter goods, that's currency.)
