Thanks everyone. I’m just trying to put things back for my toddler & myself (I’m a single mom) since I really believe hard times are ahead, esp since we have not monetized our debt. Thanks, Soros, you dirty bastard.

Ask ChocChipCookie to add you to her ping list. She has a website www.thesurvivalistmom.com
Be sure you add a couple of small bottles of vinegar to your survival list, it treats many things like scraps, bruises. Google for other uses. It was used as an antiseptic before we had them. Don’t neglect things like asprin or tylenol or vit C. Canned goods if you have the space and ROTATE, use the oldest first. If you have a hard time reading the expiration date, write it in sharpie on the can lid. Dried beans another good source of food. Maybe boring, but fills the belly when hunger comes calling.
Stores like Krogers are running their Thanksgiving specials over the next 2 weeks...you can pick up canned fruit or tomatoes for as little as 49 cents a can, about a year shelf life. Canned milk like Carnation can be added to your storage list. I cook with it a lot. Powdered milk is another item, just don’t go over board, doesn’t taste very good to drink, but can be used in cooking prep where the flavor is masked by the food taste...or chocolate syrup if you are drinking it. LOL.
Learn to can food. Don’t forget things like TP, laundry/bar soap..price is climbing fast. You can store in big plastic bins if you don’t have shelf space...DATE food stuffs. Don’t mix food stuff with cleaning supplies when storing. Dry cool place for storage.
