Makes sense to buy the cheap crap for SHTF barter liquor....ONLY in glass bottles btw!...people would be so desperate that quality should not make a difference for value. Cheap stuff on sale by the case. Problem for many folks is storage. In addition bulk asprin and ibuprofen and and acetaminophen (lasts for decades!) will be like gold....SALT! SEEDS! Especially seeds that can be both planted AND eaten! (oats wheat barley etc) ....btw I started saving and refilling with H2O ALL glass bottles of any size (ie 1 literally plus) ...I mean clean water bottled in glass? NO expiration is my understanding! As opposed to H2O in plastic being iffy even after one year in hot climate....I consider long term plastic bottled water only good for life and death or bathing etc NOT for non emergency consumption! ....I mean OFCOURSE I WOULD drink the crap rather than dying! But years old water in plastic bottles! YUUCK! How about liquor stored for years in plastic? YUUCK me thinks ....glass man!
The great thing about being frugal is,you realise you don't need much to have a comfortable life. When we accumulate a lot it's nice to share with those who are not able to. Funny seeing this from all those years ago. And here we are, it's about to happen. You are a smart man.
Have you thought about the possibility that if things really get THAT bad, you are the first target for a quick murder and loot? Possibly related, Clan Macgregor is a great choice and we'd appreciate it if you started stocking cheap scotch as well.
EXACTLY! Good argument for hoarding the right mix of stuff JUST for your OWN and don't tell ANYONE! A different school of thought and quite possibly the SMARTER plan!???
AND VERY ATTRACTIVE to be DRUNK as much as possible end of days ....who wants to face THAT sober? actually the most bang for buck might be to squirrel away pure fentanyl! Although I personally have zero idea where to procure such! I'm just saying a tiny stash of such would go a LONG WAY ! One could bury a few ounces of the substance and be SET bartar wise for SHTF! SO MANY would trade WHATEVER to escape the awful reality via euphoric OD! LOL on the OTHER HAND ? A BUNCH would KILL your ass to Rob you of it!
Why not minis? Then you don't have to convince folks that you have not cut whatever you are pouring out of another bottle and minis are SO easy to store. Thanks
mini bottle are TERRIBLE value! Now IF I had a source for free or super cheap empty mini bottles! THOSE could be wonderful to refill for barter....so long as GLASS rather than plastic! Or just store empty UNTIL SHTF and only then refill! And who cares if refilled ALL with cheap vodka even if label is something entirely different? Seal is broken anyway you just tell the buyer "look it is generic vodka ...take it or leave it! Let you have each mini for one dehydrated meal OR quart of freshish gasoline or diesel fuel...or? What have you got to trade man? Fresh antibiotics? fresh meat? BULLETS? 10 rounds of .22LR? 2 rnds 9mm? 2 12 gauge? 1 .308 or .223 etc ....subject to supply demand ....ammo along with other commodities WILL skyrocket over time! ...AMMO as a barter item? Hard to beat! Intrinsically more dangerous to deal in? arguably? Hey how about reloading supplies? Hand reloading tools/primers/powder? Bullet molds? Worth more than GOLD! In fact in total SHTF who even WANTS precious metals?? Can't eat it! Can't shoot it! Won't get you drunk! Lousy antibiotic (well processed as colloidal silver might be exception??) Here is another thing ...IF one hoarded a bunch of barter items and word gets out? Are you not a DEAD MAN walking? Those in need WILL come for you! ....no? Almost makes me want to NOT hoard and just suicide instead
Well I was just buying rum all the time and putting it down I was saying for a rainy day now in my country covid hit and Gov ban the selling of rum . I have do lol

Are those bottles plastic? Will they store well in plastic, get brittle?
Good point! My own thought is to use ONLY glass for anything I actually intend to personally consume! On the other hand for barter? Should I care?
Alcoholics will trade anything for liquor.
yeah they trade their health for it

Stock up

You are a smart person. Do you know how long liquor stores safely?
Well I have it in a dark closet shelf I I gotten built if I buy cork cover alcohol I transfer it into a screw cover bottle like a soda bottle.
mom so it would slow down the evaporation process
