Im putting together a BOB, and Im trying to get everything together, and in order.

Twinkies, cupcakes, cheez-its.

I think I got a bag of Doritos (cool ranch), a Para P10, a pack of smokes, and some condoms in my truck.
2 fly rods, reels, and about 3.7 million flies, a tow strap, a box of .44mag ammo, and some old magazines in my truck box. Thats about as close as I get to a BOB |
|
Grapes. I buy new ones weekly. And a jar of vaseline. And a crescent wrench.

ASSWIPES!!! YOU BETTA' HAVE YOU SOME ASSWIPES!!!!
And maybe a pack of smokes, too. |

I take a back pack with me to work and haul around in my work truck all day then bring it back home. I don't leave a dedicated BOB in any vehicle...just can't afford to put multiple together. I keep it low key, it's a Black with red trim Swiss Gear laptop back pack. Looks like I am going to class.
On the outside in a side pouch is a hard plastic bottle with 20oz of purified water Inside: Complete MRE Katadyn "straw" style water purifier Leatherman Blast Multitool Next pouch: Fire making kit including dryer lint, flint, knife, and some trioxane fuel bars Little bag with a bunch of duct tape wrapped around a card about 100' of para cord, some neatly wrapped and some loose in the bottom Trash bags, ziploc bags Mechanics gloves KaBar small sheath knife Gander Mtn flash light Couple pens Extra C123 batteries And usually an extra mag or two for my Glock 19 that I carry almost 100% of the time. All this carries very well and the pack looks normal. It's not exactly a true BOB but it's kind of my mix of a "get home bag/bug out bag/just nice to have this shit around sometimes...bag" I change little things to the pack every now and again but I am very happy with how it has turned out and I feel great carrying it around with me. |

Rain gear, basic first aid kid, flash light, extra pair of socks, leatherman, Glock 27 with spare mag. My bag is more of a GHB, if the shtf I will be bugging in.

In my car:
battery jump pack/air compressor fix-a-flat donut tire jumper cables bottled water sleeping bag pair of weather appropriate shoes in my BOB I have: matches water filtration bottle mountain house meals hand/foot warmers emergency blanket survival sleeping blanket small shovel flashlight portable stove stove pellets *other misc items, I can't remember everything in the winter I add a heavy blanket hat gloves thermal socks spare pair of boots and no, I'm not a nut-job, I just drive a LOT, and most of it is thru very isolated country roads. I also live on roads which the state will close down if the weather gets too bad. . .I don't want to find myself halfway home in the winter and have my car snowed in and have to sleep there w/o being prepared. |

You should definitely visit the survival forum.
But, I'm gonna watch this thread to remind myself why I would have posted this in SF. |

What kind of food could you put in a BOB (other than something like MREs) that would keep for a month+?
|
|
a raptor claw, a fuckmonkey and a small bottle of holy water.
The monkey drank the holy water and got out the other day. Wife called locked in the bathroom and said it either wanted to perform an exorcism or...well you get the picture |

I'm too close to NJ to risk keeping a firearm in my BOB. I stick with food, water, jackets/hats/gloves for the whole family, shovels, knives, basic survival kit with tools to build fire, shelter, food, & keep up hygiene.

This isn;t really a bug out bag, it is my comfort bag. It makes most situations more comfortable. It goes everywhere, it looks unassuming, it comes in handy.
Spare everything for my EDC; knife, multi tool, keys, etc. Usually spare clothes. Rain coat. First aid kit and bathroom kit in Nalgene knock offs. FA kit has bandaids, neosporin, various OTC pain killers and remedies, vitamin c, sutures, and some other stuff. BAthroom kit has toothbrush, toothpaste, small soap container, TP unrolled and folded flat in a ziplock. Deoderant. Meds for a week. 2-3 days worth of calories. Handwarmers Batteries Headlamp 2-3 Maxi pads and tampons (it never fails, despite the regular scheduling of such events they seem to arrive suddenly and without notice at the worst possible of times, often to the complete surprise of the individual who experiences the need for such products, thus, since roughly 50% of the population is female, having some spare toiletries has been handy.) Quart bag filled with a variety of powdered drinks and coffee, sugar packets, salt and pepper packets, and Stevia packets. Mint tins marked with contents, one had duct tape and 80lb dacron fishing line, one has plastic bags, another a candle and some other stuff. Folded sheet of aluminum foil for cooking stuff in. Lighters Several micro SD cards with scans of ID's Big cheap knife KT Sub2K with 3 mags Space Blanket Spare chargers for phones Plastic forks and spoons Gallon ziplocks and some regular grocery bags for dirty clothes and the like Outer pouches have Spare knit hat and work gloves. Lockpicks Spare Blood Glucose meter Lengths of wire Floss I think there is more, but I don't recall. Sometimes I tear it down and find stuff I forgot about. |
