My family says I'm crazy but I save the lint from my tumble dryer.!
I do too❤
Me too it’s a great fire starter just show them how good it works buddy!
I do also. Here in Nevada even in the summer time if it is raining and the sun goes down and you're wet you can go into hyperthermia in short order. You have to start a fire and get warm.
Lint can also be used as padding in a quilt like cover. Can use two blankets, layer one with lint, lay other blanket over it and sew together, making sure to sew all across the blankets in crisscross pattern to hold lint in place. Very warm.
SAME!!!
We definitely hoard. I am happy with it. The more food and paper products, medical supplies, firewood, and the list goes on…..the better off we are. First we were survivalists, you know those tin hat people? Then we were preppers and they made fun of us on tv shows. Then the plandemic and they called us hoarders. Who cares what they call you. Take care of your family
I'm the same way trying to get my girlfriend to pick up the habbit 😅
@@fro-yo-momma7082 have her read One Second After by William Fortschen or Lights Out be Ted Koppel. Either one will work
@@fro-yo-momma7082You need to find a girlfriend with your values, thats what makes a relationship work in the long run. You need to share the same values and beliefs. Conflict comes from not having the same money values, religious and character. Rethink your relationship.
@Jane-wz7kz I mean your not completely wrong but since we been together I inspired her to get in shape I got her into guns and now she likes camping and prep supplies. Might sound messed up but alot of people grow up pretty empty inside and are looking for someone to join and will almost mold into their live style
I'm homeless and I'm also a prepper. I collect clothes that are too big and a couple sizes down. I fluctuate from winter to summer sometimes as much as 30 pounds. I also dehydrate and vacuum seal tons of food. The food banks give out tons of canned beans, I just smash them out thin and dehydrate them in the sun and vacuum seal it. With all my combined caches I could survive a year without resupply. Also have a dental plier set, so many died in old days from dental infections.
This is for all that say, Homeless with internet? I use T-Mobile $25 a month prepaid, 10g data, unlimited calls and text. I tether to my tablet and laptop.
I also work from my ebike washing windows. I'm one of the few with my Sh&t together, and no habits unless Mt. Dew counts
When SHTF, there will be no clothing stores! Watch out for shoes too
I have to reply back that I was accidentally homeless 25 years ago and I thought just like you
It was the best training God ever gave me
Well done to u I pray Ur circumstances change for the better so u can prep more 👍🤗🙏💖🇬🇧
My living situation could change any given month. QUESTION: Where do you store your preps? Best
Gloves are for protection, mittens are to keep hands warm.
I was talking to my 77 year old mother and she was talking about her parents who immigrated. And she said “food was free” when I was a child. I was like what??? She said yes my dad laid traps and mom gardened. We didn’t pay for food. I grew up thinking food was free and I’m still to this day confused by grocery stores. Thinking back she grew huge gardens when I was a kid.
I am not an immigrant. We just grew up poor in Americs. If we had not had a large garden we would have starved.
Some things that I never see talked about are disposable plates, cups and silverware. If you really are struggling for water you don't want to waste it on those items. Baby wipes - great for toliet paper and for wiping off.
Good thinking
Our 3-day power outage for our family of 13 made me realize I wanted disposable dishes in my emergency selection!
The problem I have with paper plates is that they clog up the dishwasher.
@majorlaff8682 Sarcasm
I hope? 😂
@@amichaels1871 Yes. Glad it made ya laugh. Actually, I hang them outside on the washing line to dry but when it pours down someone comes and pinches them. The pegs are still there but the plates have disappeared.
Tipp for Woolhats and Gloves.
I pur in every Jacket a paar of Gloves and a Woolhat.
So i have this things everytime at me.
We stocked up on cheap coffee filters for initial water filtration: our Berkey and Life Straws are great but increase their life span by running outside water through a coffee filter first. It'll get out the heavier debris. Great list here!
You can start the filter process with a cotton pillowcase inside a 5 gallon bucket. It will filter bigger debris then go to large coffee filters, and then the life straw (or whatever) as a final filter. It’ll save on the final filter.
@@chanchan5349 Love the pillowcase as the initial filter suggestion! That would filter bigger quantities of water faster; using a coffee filter can be slow as debris clogs it. But if the pillowcase has already caught leaves, twigs, etc, the coffee filter would have an easier time getting finer particles out. Thank you!
Blister packs and foot powder very important felt liners to absorb moisture. Care of feet can save your life.
Toe nail clippers, separate hand nail clippers. Save water in bottles freeze then or replace then every month for washing hands , face ....
Just like planning a party or dinner, it's better to have too much than not enough. 😊
If you pressure can, can distilled water 2 cups, 1 tsp salt, and a clean rag in all of your empty pasta jars, salsa jars etc. it is a rag in Normal saline. Pour normal saline on wound, wrap in rag and run for the first aid kit. Husband cut himself a couple of months ago while making my greenhouse and I used one. It was a life saver.
I like this idea. I've only done canning once in my life, 25 years ago but I've been stockpiling canning items. I didn't know that you can reuse commercial jars? What kind of lids would you need?
@@thuggineternal I just use the lid it came with to do sterile rags. Sometimes people will reuse the jars from the grocery store with the original lid for food but I’m not comfortable with that. Now the pasta sauce called clasico comes in a “mason” jar and takes canning lids so I use those jars with a new lid to pressure can.
@@thuggineternal I've never seen new lids & rings for most pasta jars, but a few brands (Classico, for example) are packed in glass jars that use a "regular" size Ball jar lid. Any size glass jar that takes one of the standard Ball lids/rings will be reusable. If I buy new Ball jars from WM or Amazon, they cost about $1.25. Currently, I can buy the 24 oz. "Classico Family Favorites red sauce" for $2.16 from the same merchants. That's $0.91 for the sauce and $1.25 for the reusable jar! A new Ball lid will add $0.50 or less to the overall cost of the sauce + reusable jar. As an added bonus, the 24 oz. jars (1.5 pint) are an unusual size that work particularly well for a few of the sauces & stews I pressure can.
@@beatriceannbaker3350 thank you for the tips!
No one really talks about this....In a prolonged grid/services down situation, hygiene is going to be your biggest threat. In combat situations, the military plans for 35% loss due to disease/illness.
A manual clothes washing machine like a wonder wash (5 gallon, about $70 on Amazon and laundry powder ).
My FOB was 3hrs away from laundry services....after a few weeks you quickly realize how important clean socks, underwear, t-shirts are.
A toilet plunger and a garbage can makes a great washing machine
Also good strong line for hanging clothes inside or outside. Forney 70452 Wire Rope, Vinyl Coated Aircraft Cable, 250-Feet-by-1/8-Inch thru 3/16-Inch is what I purchased back in 21'...was 42.00 back then....113.00 now. Last year we decided to put as many clothes lines as possible cross crossing our wrap around porch. Have saved a ton in electricity...and it is fun to boot. Have had the wonder washer in storage for when the time comes...not looking forward to the day we have to break it out : )
@truthtriumphant4015 Yeah I put the wonder washer in storage as well as a field toilet... 5 gallon bucket with toilet seat and sanitation bags. When speaking with my civilian friends/preppers I explain sanitation will be a daily obstacle as most people aren't going to be in firefights.
I bought a couple of those about a year ago.
I live in a senior apartment building. We’re not allowed guns. In our apartment or garage we can’t have them. I don’t think most of the people have any stockpiles of food or water. If SHTF happens I’m sure everyone will be asking who has food and water? They have master keys to all apartments so they could come in and take it. I’m hiding some but still. If it gets life and death I will probably not make it. If there’s time I could go to my sisters. She lives on a farm, no garden or anything, but easier to defend. She has guns and training. I pray every day it doesn’t get that bad.
Install a secure "safe" in the trunk of your car and lock a stainless steel pistol in it that no one knows about. If your sister is Ok with you coming to her farm when SHTF, see if she would mind if you keep an AR-15 rifle, ammo and magazines in a safe on her farm. Keep Prepping my friend.
Hi, senior also. Buy a gun and keep in Christmas decorations box or s locked safe hide it in a giant box.
I think it is wrong that they don't allow you to exercise your 2nd amendment rights. If it were me I would consider moving somewhere else unless you really like it there.
Can you afford a storage shed? If you can then get one close by and start putting stuff in it. Water, food, guns, camping gear, seeds for garden. Saws, drill bits, hand crank drill.
Start a garden now at your sister's. Every little bit now helps for later.
Get a small enough gun to hide on you or in apartment. You can hide one easily. Better to have it if they have master keys.
Get rid of bed frame and make five gallon buckets your frame or a bunch of small totes your frame and store preps in them. Make each tote preps for a month say if you can only grab one then you can live off it until you get to your sister's. Get a vest from bass pro type place one with pockets and put lighters, first aid, knife, and what ever else in it. You can throw it on then grab bugout bag and totes. I'd rather have totes in storage locker if I could.
Can you move in with your sister now? Is there room? Will you kill each other living together? Re-assess why you in retirement village. Can you afford townhouse closer to your sisters? Explore every option.
How's your vehicle? Maintenance updated? Tires good? If SUV get 10 ply tires they are tougher and tend to last longer. Paper maps and survival gear can be in car too just don't make it look enticing to thieves.
Tell no one of your preps because they will expect you to take care of them.
Any reason you can't move in with your sister now?
Excellent info….From the dollar store I bought twine, cut off 6 inches , unravel and light with a lazer lighter . Solar power flashlights.rechargeable batteries. Clay flowerpots with candles for heating a room or tent. Women’s no name personal needs make awesome medical bandages and old nylons to hold in place. Everyone’s comments/suggestions are great… thankyou 0:08
You can also take a tampon, solace into a plastic bottle with bottom cut off. Stuff tampon into btl opening. Put in dirty water. This will filter very well. You will need to still add bleach or iodine to kill virus germs.
All good stuff if you're not struggling to get food and shelter.
always keep a " P38 " can opener on your key chain
Keep one in my wallet since 89. Kept me out of a court house once. Had to go outside and hide it since they wanted me to throw it away.
Had one for years it was lost or stolen now all I find are junk ones
@@jamiejohnson8176 look on " the bay " there's sellers that have the real ones
Still have my original from Air Force, 1977. I did get a bunch more and keep them everywhere....they aren't as well made but will work in a pinch.
I gave mine to a Vet that served in Vietnam. He said he wished he had one when he saw mine...figured I served, but not in a war...
My EDC items that i do not leave home without are: Leatherman, pocket knife and flashlight. When i need to use them, people typically say something about being prepared.
Have all the above and as a former member of UK armed forces and a practicing registered first aider for my employer I get regular training. I am currently working on power options for operations and building my own power stations. In the UK we don't have a house full of guns and ordinance. Learn to part of and build your community- no man is an island- you need people and they need you.
If you have girls in your life, tampons and liners are forgotten for women when men start getting things at all, much less multiple i have a wife and 3 daughters so dont forget these items you will be glad you got them
They are also great fire starters
Be sure and purchase washable ones...will save a fortune over time.
Also great for gunshot wounds.
If you have daughters get the Diva cup it’s reusable and you will not need tampons or pads. It’s reusable and last for 10 years. Two sizes one if you have had children and the other if you didn’t have children yet.
i like wearing the headband light so i can walk in the dark if needed hands free….
I can see in the dark
Me too! Those are nifty.
Me too. There nifty
Me too! I even have them for the kids!
I've got a little multi-tool in my lunch box and have a knife in my pocket everyday when I leave the house
Don't forget a radio scanner so you can monitor law enforcement, fire dept. utility companies, etc.
I save all my toilet paper and paper towels roll when I’m done with them. I put newspapers, dryer sheets, lint from the dryer, and my Siberian husky’s hair in it, and I fill them up from one side to the other and store them in a big bag in case I need to start a fire.
That husky hair will stink something fierce when burnt. Best
Better to wipe a greasy pan with a paper towel and save the towel in a Ziploc bag. Grease won't clog drains, but paper towel will be a good firestarter. Have used for years in my woodstove.
Machete, which can clear a path, cut firewood, or act as a self-defense weapon. This is a very versatile and useful tool carried daily by farmers in developing countries and people in wooded areas.
Thank you Dr. Eric Goshen Family. Great items and great advice. Blessings to you all ❤
Love these videos. I always buy extra canned protein (tuna, sardines, chicken etc), batteries and flashlights, solar garden lamps (can be used as torch light)
Heavy duty contractor bags, plastic food storage bags. Multiple sizes.
I keep a multi tool in all cars. When my son was a toddler we were on a trip and stopped at a store and were waiting for his sister's to come out. He wrapped the seatbelt around his neck and it locked in place. I couldn't get it off of him. And every moment it tightened. My husband finally got it off. If he wouldn't have been with us I wouldn't have been able to hold the strap and lift the booster to reach the button. We had the tether straps clipped in tight enough I couldn't move the car seat to get to the seatbelt release button. The multi tool has a knife I can cut the strap
There are many lists of "Things To Stockpile." But this list is especially accurate and essential. Thank you!!
I p/u those very small cup cake liners from $ Tree. Fill with sawdust or very small wood chips. Pour melted old candles over them to the top. Let harden. These make the best & quickest fire starters. They burn quite a while so even if wood waS wet or snow they give you plenty of time to get fire started. You get like 50 of these liners in each package.
I like your delivery style. No sensationalism or drama, just practical info.
On a side note: In October there will be big BRICS conference. What might come out of that meeting? Stock traders see something concerning December but I cant explain it (too complicated for me) Armstrong Economics said 2024 would be a year of massive civil unrest and all hell breaks loose in 2025. Much to consider and wise to pay attention.
i think 2024 all heck is to break out (2025) will be the remennts to be cleaned up, less people around 2025.
The few things I will add are patching material for clothes and shoes. For shoes I go with Shoe Goo. For clothes I go with denim (at least a couple of yards but if you want to have something to barter with go for a full bolt), a sewing kit (with lots of thread and spare needles) and Bish’s Original Tear Mender.
Take care.
I’m a quilter. I have fabric for 6 lifetimes. 😂 and batting. Can’t see clothes to save my life but we will have quilts in pretty colors and nice fabric. 😊
👍Good list Doc. Thank you for your vids! They are Greatly appreciated! - We do what we can with what we've got. *Dont be scared, Be prepared!
Been buying older good condition coolers from thrift stores for about $5. If power goes out I have frozen half gallon milk jugs with water in my freezer to help family, friends and neighbors.
great idea on coolers to help others. I also fill jugs with water and place in the freezer (or bottles of juice) double benefits. It makes the freezers more efficient and to use if SHTF.
@@connie5689 Same! I have several frozen gallons of water in my upright freezer, along with regular ice packs, and frozen regular size water bottles in the kitchen freezer. Also have at least six insulated boxes from getting frozen food delivered that would be useful in a power outage, either for us or for neighbors and friends.
I like the look of your brown bag for your fire kits but if you set that down in the woods it could easily disappear. Replace the rope with high visibility/reflective cord
Just my opinion.
Great video as always
What a voice. I love listening you talking about anything tbh.
Thank you very much!
I love tools and organizing them.
Being well organized helps get small tasks completed in no time without searching for tools.
One of the best ways i found is to get a few buckets with clothe bucket organizer then store a tool bucket on each level of your house.
Make a Garden Tool bucket too.
You'll be surprised how much more efficient youll be a home repairs.
Thank you for your excellent presentations!
Here’s the very best way to prep. Romans 10:9-10” That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.”
This is the first and most important prep. Without Christ, you will NOT survive what is coming.
All that is true, but we must prepare ourselves for what is coming. There will be several years of horrible tribulations before gods people are called up. Until then you must take care of those you love and yourself. God does not usually act directly to keep you safe: he HELPS those of us who walk his pathway to keep your family safe. Trust in the lord our god and pass the ammunition.
Yes a copy of the Bible likely won't be stolen like preps will. Reading it before shtf is smarter. I save lint from my dryer too, for lighting fires. But I am already using my preps because my and my husband's SS was not available since due to illnesses we did not work and we owned to much to get SSdi. My brother in law held money for us and paid it out for a while but stopped when he got sick. (Was still my husband's money, he paid taxes on it) But I prepped for years before he stopped sending the money and got a job in desperation before hubby died. Very little SSDI for that and sooo much pain from the below minimum wage job. I'll have to go back to work soon until I die my SSDI is so low! Anyway , I believe God will see me through.@@johnjanuary2958
Can you ask him to come round and fix my chainsaw so I can chop some wood for my wood burner.
@@bermudarailway Romans 10:13 “For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.”
Thank you for the information.
Candles,matches,oil lamps ,oil for the lamps,canned heat for cooking.
garden pots over a candle will spread the heat efficiently in the winter.
Activities games coloring books actually books notebooks sketch pads things to keep you entertained especially your kids or pets don't forget them too
I would suggest BIC lighters over cheapos. The cheapos tend to leak out the fluid in my experience.
I've had cheapo lighters from eBay for 5+ years and all are still full and work great. Have a few hundred of them. It's only $30 for 100 lighters off ebay.
Matches, lots of them.
In Michigan surviving winter without shelter is quite unlikely. No matter how many sleeping bags one might have. Also one needs lots of food for one's body to produce heat. From the 👍. Best
Propane bottles - all different sizes
I do love propane bottles. I have all of the sizes. All full. My husband rolled his eyes at first now he’s proud of HIS collection of propane bottles. 😂😂😂. He claims them all. I’m still out hustling for them.
I am kicking myself for not picking up 14 empty one pound bottles. I can and have refilled them from a twenty pounder. Hindsight is 20/20
I saved many movies on thumb drives and have them stored in appropriate places along with old players to view old movies from. It may be the best thing I stored in event of SHTF.
With no electricity.. ?
@@lindamannix1247 not only did I save movies to watch, but I even have popcorn in cases, multiple voltage inverters for making electricity off all batteries, solar panels hidden away just waiting for those living mushroom clouds to be present, boxes of electronic parts to enable the production of inverters should all mine fail. I have fully put together solar generators, batteries hidden all throughout my home ready to power it when Russia and China had enough of the US of A. I live,breath and shall die prepping! My biggest problem will be how not to be found by my neighbors after the lights go out and me keeping that fresh popcorn smell from hitting the neighborhood!
@@lindamannix1247solar generators are a must. Saved us when the winter storm hit. We have two. We were able to watch our dvd movies, make food and coffee.
i put movies on sd cards in 7 old cell phones. I have a 4 AA battery to usb out I can use to charge the cell phones and 400+ AA batteries. sitting in a emp proof metal trash can.
Salt. I have many, many pounds of salt; flavoring food, wound care, preserving food, etc. I don’t buy iodized salt, personally, but salt is cheap and very useful to have around.
I always put a thin layer of white rice between layers of salt in my gallon glass containers, the rice will draw moisture and keep the salt from getting hard. Sifting a bit from the jar will easily separate the salt from the rice. Rice can go back in jar or set aside for cooking.
Duck tape, baking soda, and fire extinguishers for every room and car, (the kind that you don't have to recharge) always rotate food and buy new.
If I was a young guy and had more motivation. I would learn how to make shoes like they did throughout human history . Somebody like that is very valuable
I believe you could still do it. Try ok? Godbless you.
@@ravenstillwaters5195 you are right myself and everybody reading this could still do it. And we can do thousands of other things. God bless you
If I'm forced to join a community, I want to bring something that is valuable. If I show up and say I'm really smart but I don't have anything and I need to take from you guys it might not work well
I'm a big history buff but especially about the settlers and portagers, I've observed a pattern of people always needing lots of food, ammo, blankets, maps and booze, fire starting kit and cookware were also desirable items too.
Agricultural lime. You may need to bury a family pet when there are no vet services. It helps to deter wild animals from digging up the remains. (I’m thinking pretty far ahead, but I just read “One Second After.”)
Lime can be used in the backyard latrine to keep it clean and smell-free. Never pee in the latrine or it will stink. Have a separate spot for pee.
Just an fyi, those crank flashlights are pretty useless. The effort to crank to get a few.minutes of light is ridiculous. Those solar attachments don't produce much either. I'd get a good pack size of glow sticks and cycle those out. The expiration date on those is actually years after. And them a good flashlight with a good set of rechargeable batteries.
I tested 3 different colors. Red lasted the longest, at least 2 days, if the threshold was detecting some light, like a nightlight. Green was the brightest, but also short-lived (maybe half a day).
Zippo lighters are relatively cheap and always dependable. You can run them on almost any flammable liquid if necessary. Just stockpile a lot of flints. Also, those newfangled electric arc lighters are windproof, waterproof and rechargeable. If you have a solar charger, they'll last for years even if the grid is down. In Minnesota (and I'm sure, MI), fire is very high priority if the SHTF. And, yeah, Menard's is a great place for preppers.
I play a maintenance guy in real life, and I use a multi tool every day several times a day. From personal experience the full size multi tools, despite being a pain to carry everyday are essential. I tried carrying the little ones to no avail, they are particularly useless. On another note, I get the concept of carrying multiple types of fire starters, however you would do better carrying more of one or two different types. Especially in wet conditions you will burn through those alot more frequently than you can imagine. I personally carry alot of two types. A Bic and alot of tinder (like lint or cotton) and a magnesium stick as a back up. Buy bics they last forever even with daily use. Those cheap ones break and leak, not worth the trouble in my opinion.
I throughly enjoy your videos. They are so informative and interesting. I make notes as I watch your videos. Thank you so much!!
Have plenty of canning jars and lids!
I travel a lot for work. Take my own soap, shampoo, etc. I always grab the small soaps and shampoos from the hotels. Now I've got a respectable amount added to our preps. Also come in great when camping with the fam.
Plastic ammo boxes thatbhild 50 rounds are great for battery storage. I have my aaa and aa batteries in them keeps them projected and together. The ones for 44 or 45 fit aaa the ones for 50 fit aa.
Eric, I noticed when you were holding the Katadyne water filter that you have noticeable to me White moons on your fingers, and I decided to look it up. You might want to find out if it might be health related? This is what the white moon circles describes online relating to your health. Lindsay’s nails are also known as half and half nails. One part of the nail is white while the other part is pink, red, or brown with a sharp line dividing the two halves.
People who have Lindsay’s nails may have one of the following conditions:
• kidney disease
• hemodialysis
• renal issues
• recent organ transplants
He's a doctor. No longer practicing but has the knowledge. The rest of us do appreciate the info though.
If I buy a product that is in any kind of a tin pan I wash it and save it. It will be good for cooking or baking and light weight .
22 long rifle is my first choice. A large amount of it would not weigh you down.
Eric you need to buy good blades and good multi tools like gerber and puma or the military surplus bayonets you know you get what you pay for lol btw I enjoy the heck outta your videos buddy , Eric Witt !
I'm from Brazil, tank you for your Service.
Can piercers with the bottle opener can be used to quickly make a twig stove out of a tin can and the bottle opener can pry up small things. I could teach a course in making one can twig stoves and sell the piercer as part of the course so get dozens.
I have a lot of Glow sticks they are good to put on your bathroom mirror. Double a small light
Sleep masks/ear plugs are good to have extra on hand...may come a time when people have to sleep in shifts.
I trained in Wing Chun a Knife is a beautiful extension of that Art.
Very excellent suggestions ! Thank you for sharing your ideas !
Zip ties, large safety pins, ,candles, oil lamps, . .
I'd recommend those cheap bucket lid openers. You don't normally think of it until you have to take the lid off a 5 gallon bucket.
Black friday batteries from Menards is amazing!! I get soooo many because you never know!!😊
Also can't freeze a microbial water filter. Think about winter power outage and using these in your home but surviving in a micro climate- gotta keep them from freezing.
I had started stocking up on a bit of Kosher salt (it's not "Iodized"; ... That's the main reason; if other "Non Iodized salt" can be found, it's probably cheaper) for the preservation of any meat I might kill... I'd once ate for most of a week, on 2 Bonita, which I'd cleaned and salted into Ziploc bags... They got stained from the iodine in the salt; but, provided nourishment!
Why would anyone be concerned about a radio license? Who cares? Radio Police? How many people have been arrested or put in jail. Ever? ZERO!
Agreed. When the feces hits the fan, that 'license ' is irrelevant. Just one more thing the government does NOT need to know about me
One of the most overlooked items that people should consider is paper and pencils/pens. We use electronics to track inventory, but an EMP or CME can take that out. Make sure you have binders and sheet protectors to help documents last and stay organized!
Also, cards, dice, yo-yos, fidget gadgets... things to replace our dependence on smart phones and streaming services.
Oil lamps, candles, solar landscape lights... Save your flashlights for specific tasks.
Buy old shirts on last day of garage sales for huge discounts and cut them into rags.
If you drink a lot of coffee or soda, buy caffeine tablets to help you avoid headaches as you step down when it's to expensive or unavailable.
Whiskey and vodka... used in a lot of home remedies.
ChapStick. Soon protectant and not just for lips but for scratches and cuts, too. Great for making fire starters.
Strong fishing line also works for snares and sewing heavy material.
Non-electric hand tools and appliances: flour and coffee mills, hand pump syphons, customs and hand/waist brace drills, reel mower, egg beaters, manually air pumps, etc.
Tape, tape, and more tape. Duct tape, electrical tape, packing tape, and medical tape. Have tons of it!
Bolt cutters of various strengths ,sledge hammers and goggles. Who knows what you might have to bust open .
With radios, yes, for when the SHTF might happen, it's good to have a HF Ham Transceiver (whether you are a licensed Ham operator or not) as they might be the only form of (unofficial) communications available to 'mavericks' over long distances, but, (being a bit of a 70's and 80's Citizen's Band veteran) don't neglect learning up on how to properly set up your transmitting antenna anywhere,, and tuning your antenna transmitting element length (or sub length) to the correct Standing Wave Ratio [SWR] for the frequency/band you have selected to transmit on, or your most expensive Kenwood (or whatever) will be usless to you (and to whoever is trying to undeestand what you are trying to transmit), and especially if you bliw your final transmission transistor.
With Radio Receivers, try to get those whose receptions cover the entire radio trasmissiin spectrum (short wave etc) as somewhere in amonst thst spectrum someone might be transmitting someting important (and your familiar local MSM radiio stations might be non existent - if not just active propaganda platforms).
And learn how to read Morse Code if you do not already know [well, at least have a hard copy of it availabke], ...yes, it is still a thing. Cheers.
Cheapest place for gauze, betadine etc is your local feed stores!
Yes, I have picked up plenty of medical supplies at Tractor supply. Our feed store closed.
I got a brand new nice pair of bibs for work and we ended up not working the whole month of January because of rain and mud so I ended up not needing them. Wore them a few times over at my brother but still glad I have them. About to put all my cold weather work clothes up and switch to summer stuff already and get the shorts back out.
We love Menards too! Thank you for another great video!
Should probably have extra gun parts too. And cleaning equipment of course.
Have purchased cleaning solvents for all firearms in gallon jugs
People will really need their own home made diesel petrol production set up
My Walmart has discontinued selling Bic lighters. Box matches/Book matches are ok. rather strange. I do pick up Bic lighters from Dollar 25 store
I have so much stuff it feels so sinful. And I can't easily pack up and move. Need to go minimalist.
Most times, the best bet is to shelter in place so good you have so much
I have lots of can openers but I still practiced opening a can of tuna at a parking lot using a concrete parking berm. The first time I heard about that, I thought that was nuts. But, it does work.
Sometimes you can find things on clearance fairly cheap. We found some coin cell batteries on clearance for a fraction of what they would have been at wallyworld.
Also, your green ball cap looks like mine do after a hot Texas summer. I end up having to rotate hats and wash mine more than once during the hot months otherwise they get really badly stained (that sometimes doesn't come out). Still functional but wife doesn't like to be seen with me if it gets bad enough.
I want one of those drills with DIY wooden handle that makes holes for dowels of small branches,Ie off grid construction,Ie non nails hardware attachment carpentry.
I would recommend if you're buying a large quantity of batteries. Make sure that they are lithium batteries. Because normal batteries. We'll tend to go bad after a long period of time. Unless you cycle through your battery, so that you pretty much have fresh batteries at all times.
Awesome profitable information
I would want to add, don't keep all your eggs in one basket. That's easy for me to say but difficult to do. If you have a jar of ammo hidden somewhere weatherproof
I like that America Reserve radio I’ve never seen it before other than your video are you gonna do a giveaway for one of these that would be awesome! Buddy!!
Good content
Try out P38 and P51 military can openers !
Small and efficient/effective.
Great video. Have you ever considered adding demonstrations of each video's subject?
Thank you very much....
Have an over abundance as to trade and barter.
Only but food that you like to eat. Dont buy kits with chicken flavored rice and mac n cheese and pancake mix if you dont like it. Things will be bad enough without eating bad foods.
Glow sticks
Glow sticks, light sticks, or chem lights. Especially cheap and abundant around Halloween time.
I am NOT a minimalist.
I am a maximalist !
Hand soap and lots of it! In crisis situations, diarrheal disease will become frequent. The leading cause: fecal-oral route from contaminated hands.
I pick up soap bars to stock back for that very same reason. Try to keep a couple of containers of liquid hand soap put back as well
Peroxide has many uses
thank you for the advice. Good job. Keep it up.
