Quoted: i saw mentioned a while ago that someone would go shopping and add $10 worth of something to add to his preparedness stocks. This is within my budget and probably storage options. Since kroger doesn't sell MRE's what would be the best things to by for longer term storage other than soup? |
The way I do it is make a list of the
staples we use weekly, crackers, peanut butter, bottled water, spam, et cetera, things that last on the shelf.
Then, when the we shop, we buy 10$ worth of those things.
4 cans of spam one shop day, 2 flats of water the next. One week, Kroeger has a 10 soups for 10 bucks, YeeHaw, jackpot!
Pretty soon, you have months of useable food and water.
Dont go out and buy 200 MRE's, unless that's what you and your family are used to eating daily, can you imagine going from regular meals, to MRE's 3 times a day, your guts wont be thanking you.
MRE's are great, I have 100 of them, just incase. But mostly, im going to use them for trading if SHTF some day.
