I got 2 boxes of 750 count Q-tips , 3 cotton ball bags, and 2 hydrogen peroxide. It is a start. I love opening the closet door and seeing my preps.
It really is satisfying to know you're doing good for your and your families security.

Mine all started with just 1 closet.. . . amazing how quickly it accumulated and grew.
We bought a couple buckets of (some brand of) freeze dried meals from Amazon. Basically 3 months worth of meals for 2 people. Haven't tried it yet, but to be honest, in a grid down scenario any meal should be pretty tasty. Shelf life is 10-20 years depending on storage temp. Bought those 6 years ago. Going to look at cycling them out in the next couple years. In the meantime, I supplement with 12-36 unit trays of canned goods from Winco. Stuff like mac'n'cheese, spaghettios, ravioli, canned corn and green beens, chicken breast, tuna, chili, and pork'n'beans. They have a year's shelf life, so gives me plenty of time to cycle them out. If things go bad today I have sufficient reserves. If society can hang on for another year or so, I can get a fresh stockpile.
The freeze dried food buckets were like $72-120 each. The trays of canned food (amounts to about another 30-60 days of meals) was $169.

We went over the top a year or two ago and bought a freeze dryer. We have really used it, and it does a great job. Properly stored freeze dried food should have a long long shelf life.
The canned stuff: a year is very conservative. A lot of people here go way past the ‘best used by’ date, and have tested their stores. It loses a little taste and probably some nutrients, but is still edible. I wouldn’t use a can if it were swelled up or damaged, but otherwise would.

In 2016 I posted opening a can up from 2005 and eaten it 11 years from date on can and gave report here;

Be careful if practicing a survival situation and living off the land . You can see these "professional" survivalists digging worms or grabbing insects eating them whole. Claiming they are getting protein. I just saw where the Aussie Rugby Player that swallowed the slug as a dare has been in a vegetated state for a long time has just died . I could forage alot from the land but I also cook almost everything .
The slugs favorite food is mouse/rat ****, so go ahead and eat that slug
ya, I seen those survival stunts too where they eat slugs and certain snails, I remember through JOTC training they strongly advised against it so I don't know where the hell these so-called tv and youtube experts are getting this from.There's a large lot of emergency food on Craigslist, Brazil ,Indiana. If you got 3K to fork over. Thought that was interesting as it is the first time I have seen this type of thing on Craigslist.
Yea, I'm cooking my slugs, thank you very much.The slugs favorite food is mouse/rat ****, so go ahead and eat that slug
A couple of years, I buy 8 jars at a time when it is cheap.
Wonder what that's like when the temp goes below freezing?
A 19 year old rugby player was turned into a quadripeleigic by eating a raw slug when he became infected with rat lungworm.The slugs favorite food is mouse/rat ****, so go ahead and eat that slug
When the body fights the lungworm, a crisis happens called eosiniphillic encephalitis (I think--but am not sure), and this 19 year old rugby player was left a quad and in a vegetative state.
Cook you snails and slugs.
