Time for the monthly rotation checklist. I’ve adapted this from alpharubicon’s site (they have more info than I can ever read). Usually do this the first Friday of every month (you pick best time for you). Some of these actions may only pertain to those living in a moist (and in my case salty) environment. If you have a suggestion of what to add…let me know!

Check you BOB often. Don't keep batteries in devices! Use what you store! Store what you use!
I promise some on a thread on this subject.
Prepper’s PING!

Canteens and canteen cups. No prepper or survivalist should be without them. Handy as a pocket on a shirt for your BOB when SHTF. You can usually get them at military surplus stores, flea markets or online.
For the new prepper...who has limited means. ..
Garden - Google global buckets.
Water-go to cheaper than dirt.com product number camp-352 also look up pool shock calcium hydro.. 58%
For vacuum sealing food go to natural supplies online and look for pump n seal.
For inexpensive way to extend gas life go to goodboatgear.com and look up Pri-G.
For lanterns Google olive oil lamp.
Ammo- cheaper than dirt pretty good.

Thanks!
FIFO is your friend!
Man, I just found something cool the other day.
You can take a metal office supply cabinet and make it into a faraday cage for EMP protection. Your mention of storing batteries made me remember it.
Keep your emergency electronic stuff in an office supply cabinet, and have it protected from EMP. (Make sure to ground the thing properly)

I followed your link to the video and spent half the day on youtube. Your fault. :)
That “LDSPrepper” guy has some good vids.
We must understand that preppers are going to cross paths with a lot of folks we don’t agree with on other things.
I’ve already run into everything from tinfoil hatters to Rambos to sandle footed exhippies.
I know what you mean. All kinds of people are catching on that it is time to prepare. And then there is the sweet little lady next door who would rather raise flowers instead of vegetables, but she does have chickens.
I grew up in the country. Canning food, raising a hog, and keeping chickens and a cow was considered normal. My how times have changed.
