After Halloween Sales On Prepping Items

Hi Everyone-

Quick post today but wanted to remind you that today most “Halloween” items go on sale for at least 50% off. Here are some great things that you can pick up during the sales to add to your preps:

 

  1. Pumpkins!! Here are some fabulous ways to use pumpkin: can cubed pumpkins, make pumpkin butter, roast  pumpkin seeds, save pumpkin seeds, dehydrate pumpkins, and don’t forget about putting some away for your doggy’s upset tummy!

  2. Glow sticks! These make excellent emergency lights. You can also use them to mark things outside that you would like to be able to see while camping.

  3. Hard candy. Dum Dum lollipops and jolly ranchers will sure be a treat if you are living off the canned goods, beans and rice you have stored away. Peppermint candy is great for human stomach aches as well.

What are some other great items and uses for the after Halloween sales? Share your ideas in the comments!

Why Worry About Preparing?

Preparedness for a disaster makes a lot of sense. With recent and predicted events like Hurricane Sandy, The Colorado Wildfires, Fiscal Cliffs, and rising food and gas costs just in 2012 there is no denying that things are changing in our world. Whether or not you believe "The End of the World As We Know It" is near there are plenty of everyday things to worry about: loss of a job, health emergency, local weather events to name a few.

I find that I worry less about the big "what if's" out there the more emergency planning my family does to deal with the unexpected. I will share the survival tips and tricks I have learned while on this preparedness journey and hope that you join in with lots of comments. We all have a lot to learn from one another.

Now, lets get started prepping! Pick a post and start reading. At the end of every post the blog randomly selects three more survival posts for you to check out. Set aside 10 minutes a day to build your preppers knowledge base. We can never be done learning or prepping, right?
