Just buy $800 worth of soup, can opener, and lots of matches.

Add a few pounds of rice, cooking oil, dried pasta and beans to that list and you can live for a looooong time. Nice thing about a total disaster is there won't be much daytime entertainment beyond eating and cooking... (and learning how to garden and survive)

In my camping and survival bags - I keep a couple decks of cards. Can you imagine how boring life will be without tv or computer, etc.

Most of your time will be spend defending. During Florida's year of the hurricanes, I wondered out loud about all the good ole boys driving up and down the road in their jacked up 4x4's, saying "why aren't they stocking up and preparing?" As soon as I said it, it dawned on me that they were preparing: making note of who was doing the heavy lifting for them. Just remember, it will be survival of the fittest.

"Add a few pounds of rice, cooking oil"

make sure it's white rice - not as nutritious, but has a MUCH longer shelf life than brown rice.
