I've always had a stash of food and water stored in the utility room.
About a weeks worth. Mostly canned goods.
But I rotate them out every fall and donate the whole stash to the food bank and re-buy a new stash.

This year I decided to buy a Costco emergency food kit: Chef’s Banquet Emergency Food and Fuel Kit. About 1000 servings with fuel. Shelf life is what sold me....20 years.

I also have $1000 in $20 bills stashed.......ever been in a week long power failure?
CASH is still KING.


Who else has a little insurance policy?

I think ammo will be a much better trading commodity in a SHTF WROL long term situation.

Thanks!

Yup, ammo is usable, immediately. Gold or silver could be made into projectiles but there again, ammo on the shelf, now, is cheaper.

From experience, a guy can go a long time on a container of Slim Jim's, some sardines, rice, pasta, and a few pounds of Krusteaz pancake mix. Peanut butter and bread is a luxury.
