Our Hurricane Prep at Publix Grocery Store in Florida | Must-Get Items for Hurricanes

- In today's video, we wanted to get prepared for hurricane season and the incoming storm, Debby, that has now hit Florida. You can never be too prepared for hurricanes in Florida and we thought it might be helpful to show some of our must-get items for hurricanes at Publix grocery stores in Florida. It’s always good to have a few things on hand because you never know what kind of damage a storm can do and if you don’t have power, you will want to be sure you have plenty of water and other items that’s will last you for a few days. For the most part, living in Central Florida makes it nice because we usually don’t ever have any sort of flooding like the coast does. However, if you are on the coast and in the direct path, please evacuate so that you can stay safe. Publix usually has all the items you need without the hassle of going to a Wal-Mart but whatever grocery store in Florida you choose, they will have the appropriate items needed to stock up on for a hurricane. We hope everyone stays safe out there and we pray the storms will do minimal damage.
Stay tuned for another video coming soon. Thanks so much for watching! God Bless!!!

Timber, you are the shining star of this channel and we hope to see more of you front and center. But we understand if that’s not your thing, just know that we do love your sweet smile and gentle nature.
That’s so very sweet! Thank you! I’m not always wanting to be on the video so there may be times I am not in it as much but thank you for the kind words!
I can tell by your expression, it looks like you want "out"😢.
In anticipation of hurricanes or really bad storms I usually cook a few potatoes and store them on the counter. In an emergency they can last a couple of days. No butter or oil, just plain potato. I also cook some hard boiled eggs. Beef jerky lasts awhile and is a form of protein. Remember, this is in an emergency.
Those are great things for prep so thank you for sharing! Worth having the extra things on hand in case of emergencies!
In Chicago, milk and bread are the two most hoarded items for blizzard (and sub zero) prep…Cheers!
We believe that coming from the Midwest. Same thing! Thanks for sharing!
Be safe and stay dry!
Thanks so much!
Ill never forget that big ice storm 2007 or 2008...im here in Tulsa Oklahoma. .We were w/o power for two weeks. Stay safe and keep posting...
I remember that ice storm as well. I lived a little east of Tulsa in Chouteau. I would melt snow and ice to flush the toilets and I would cook on top of my wood burning stove. We moved to Florida in January of this year and now I’m trying to figure out this hurricane stuff.
Wow so you share some of those same memories. What a crazy storm that was! Stay safe as well!
Crazy how that storm impacted so many people! Same thing for FL, be prepared because at least you get warnings here. Stay safe!
Don't forget to fill the bathtub with water for flushing....in case your well goes out, if you have one.
That is very smart! Thank you for the tip!
@@thealtemlife you're welcome
We’re coastal and Debby was a TS warning for us. There are many good suggestions from others already. We prefer to stock-up at the beginning of the storm season by purchasing larger quantities like batteries, paper products, etc. at Sam’s Club or Costco. We like the BOGO’s at Publix but not their prices otherwise. We had too many perishables going into Ian-lost everything of course. So we really try keeping perishables to a minimum during the season.
Good tips and places to shop! Hope you all were safe during the storm and thanks for sharing!
Hi Tember and Alex!
Please stay safe 🙏🏻
It will be thundering and raining with gusty winds all day today ⛈️
Thank you! Luckily we didn’t get it that bad. Hope you are safe as well!
I did a Walmart delivery yesterday and have a Sam's delivery arriving today, so we're set on groceries. I use a lot of pantry items that I normally wouldn't buy - smoked oysters and crackers, ravioli, canned soups, etc. I have an electric skillet that plugs into a solar powered battery pack. We also use it to run our refrigerator. We're under the highest amount of rain totals, so I'm not even sure what will happen with this. Everyone stay safe!
Oh wow those are great tips! Thank you for sharing these! Hope all was well and everything stayed safe!
Thanks for the tips! Stay safe!
You are welcome! Stay safe as well!
Stay safe from England x
Thank you! We were!
We call that stinking cute!
Thank you!
We just moved to central Florida January of this year. Being from Oklahoma I’m use to Tornadoes but hurricanes is a whole new experience for me.
Yeah there is a little different prep that has to take place! Luckily, for the most part, Central Florida is a good spot to be in.
Camping stuff and hurricane stuff are the same ,,,, cooler ,, propane stove ,, battery camp light ,,, battery operated radio
Good point! It’s nice to have those on hand!
For many years now, I've always had "emergency supplies" (including alternative power for low-demand devices/appliances) on hand no matter in what part of the country I lived (each area has its own possible/likely "emergencies"), so I NEVER need to get anything at the last minute (even as many locals do, who should know better but don't) -- I can just watch local TV news videos of panicking locals clearing store shelves (hilarious) -- they didn't even have WATER at home. Sad...
No, I'm not a hardcore prepper/survivalist -- just a "common-sense-emergency-preparedness" guy. So a storm (or some other natural (or man-made!) disaster could happen at any time (even by surprise, no warning) and I'd be prepared for it "automatically."
IMO, all of us should be prepared at all times w/o relying on or even expecting external help (neighbors or "the authorities" be they local or FEMA). Whether one is a home-owner or a renter makes no difference...except in a house you have more room to designate an out-of-the-way area for your supplies than you would in an apartment. ;-)
Where I live now, there's only a TINY likelihood of any natural emergency (weather, earthquake, forest fires) happening, but of course some man-made emergency could happen (burning/looting or some other form of "peaceful protesting") but it doesn't matter as I have the same items (and amount of them) no matter where I live.
For one example, I did fine when Hurricane Ike hit (bullseye!) Galveston TX back in late 2008 -- some immediate neighbors (not among the 40K people who evacuated the island), not so much. They also lost their cars (submerged by the storm-surge) -- I didn't (parked it in a safer high-elevation place), so I was the only one who had a running vehicle to drive them to the FEMA PODS area so they could get food/water. And they had no way of charging their phones, either -- so again my car was used for that need as well.
But then it's also a "primitive mindset" that helps to deal with a emergency's stress (I just flashback to my primitive RVN days -- easy!). The more "uncivilized" you are, the easier surviving is. In Galveston (and probably the same anywhere after a disaster), the first ones out & about on the streets even BEFORE the storm had passed were the homeless/transients (and looters, there are ALWAYS looters!), but then they're experts at "substance living," aren't they. ;-)
The only disaster my supplies won't help me with is a huge meteor striking Earth...but otherwise, I think I have things pretty much/reasonably covered. And judging by what the average person does to prepare (pretty much nothing!) I'm better-off than most.
But really, it's not hard or expensive to do: Just stock-up on things as you can little by little, designate a place to store them and sooner than later you'll have a decent supply of things. No one has to be a "survival expert" -- it's just Common Sense.
Oh yeah, one more thing: If I DID need to evacuate during a storm (flooding, debris in the road or some other serious obstacles to navigate), I also have the vehicle to do it in -- a Jeep (Gladiator Rubicon)...which is one reason I got it (AND for serious "snow events" as would sometimes happened back in CO).
But honestly, I don't ever expect to USE my emergency supplies for any extended period, and it does take up some space I could use for other things, but I keep it on hand anyway as I'd rather have it and not need it than the contrary. But that might just be me... ;-)

Lots of rain here in Burke county Georgia. The big concern at my house is when the ground gets really wet one of the big pines in my yard may come down. Tember is stinking cute but does anyone think he could be Ryan Reynolds stunt double. They look look a lot alike
Hopefully you are all safe? Thanks for the two compliments! We really appreciate that! Being stinkin’ cute and looking like Ryan and two great compliments so thanks!!
I hope you didn't suffer any storm damage.
We really had no damage so very thankful for that! Just had some string lights that were on the ground. Thanks!
Back in the moment when Covid invaded Illinois; shopping was a dirty joke.I was amazed at the over reacted buying them by the bunch crowd.
Yeah! There were a lot of items that were gone that didn’t make a lot of sense.
Stay safe guys ❤
Thank you! You too!
I've never seen a sweet treats case at publix. Interesting. I'd be grabbing a black and white cookie
They have such good sweets! You will definitely have to get something!
Hope you both made it through the storm okay!
I love going to that Publix because it is nicer, however be aware that everything is a little more expensive there compared to the other local Publix stores. I noticed lots of things were 25 cents or 50 cents more than some of the other locations.
We did! Same to you! Yeah that is the only downfall. It is more expensive. But it usually is a pretty fun experience lol
Get some solar lights. They will keep your house lit most of the night. Also, full tank of gas as you might need to use your car to charge your phones unless you have a power station which are very nice.
Great tips! Thanks for sharing these!
When you buy water think Distilled water. It's the most pure.
Thanks for the tip!
And I think it’s Tember?
Haha yup!
👍👍
Thanks!
You guys must be wealthy 😅.
Nope we have two full time jobs lol
Publix is the absolute worst store to for prepping their prices are outrageous
We have some that are a lot closer than driving to bigger grocery stores and fighting traffic!
