What are your best, most thought-out preps?

If you are going to contribute, actually contribute. Sure, guns and ammo... what guns? What ammo? How much food? What food? How are you storing it? Water filters?

Realistically, it’s likely people would be bugging in during another winter storm. I keep a lot of canned food in the basement from the Mormon Church rated to last 20 years.

Can easily imagine a week going by with the grid locked down due ti severe blizzard. So definitely want a way to relax comfortably with warmth, food, and hot chocolate. If we’re going to be locked indoors, we’ll want to uphold comfort and luxury.

I keep lots of regular food on hand but also have maybe 8 "buckets" of meals, tablets, bars, etc.. it might not be perfect, but at least it is 3 or so months if there is a real disaster.

A large galvanized wash tub, washboard and bars of laundry soap.🙂

22lr allows for the most rounds per cubic foot. A brick is plenty with which to bug out.

Collect knives. If you can't cut branches you're fucked.

I had a fearful customer a decade ago during an appliance repair problem. He went on and on and I just fucked around with his appliance. Once I was done, I got paid in cash and let him engage me in his fear again. When he asked what preps I'm making, I said I don't need to prep. If it gets that bad, I'll just eat the kids in my neighborhood, and asked what his worst case scenario was. Silence.

He never called me again. Oh well.
