    My wife worked at Wal-Mart for 14 years, (1995 - 2008). She was the Over-the-Counter (OTC) Supply Manager for the Pharmacy Section. During this time, when an item sold out and left the shelve empty it was called an "out". During her time with Wal-Mart the most "outs" she ever had in a day was three! Yesterday, she visited our local Wal-Mart and one of her Co-Workers still worked for Wal-Mart. After viewing the Pharmacy section she noticed several empty spots on the shelves. Her friend who is now the OTC Manager, said she had a total of 800 outs!!! My wife was in shock. The friend said they were having problems getting in supplies. So, yes, now is a good time to prepare for lean times!

      My mom just passed away this past February, I am so glad that she isn't here to see what is going on. She had NUMEROUS health issues, and because of that - I have what almost relates to a mini-doctor's office (and that is even after scaling it back some). I'm glad I have it, though. Every time I go to a store, I try to get something to add to my "mini-doctor's office" first aid kit and pharmacy or to my pantry. I have even invested in some recipe cards so that when I get truly bored out of my mind, I can have a few days of pantry cooking so I'll know what I will and won't try again in times of true hardship.

In those times most everyone had a garden and England's climate is well suited to growing an extreme wide range of foods. Even in the sixties when I growing up my Mother used to grow and dry onions for the winter. Importing from Espana is a relatively modern phenomen. Further more, Wales is full of sheep, Scotland full of beef and were an island surrounded by (What then were) rich fishing waters. Sugar (which we dont need anyway) and Cotton were probably our biggest imports, but I am aware that clothes recycling was a big thing wartime. x

I do not want my neighbors or anyone to know that I have stored up food - you have to be careful since people come and go in apartment complexes.

      1 sewing kit
      Cleaning supplies like mops and floor cleaners like Mr.clean pinesol.etc
      3 matches and lighters candles
      4 very well stocked first aid kit with plenty of rubbing alcohol, hydrogen peroxide and iodine
      5 pool shock. This is dehydrated bleach find recipe on y u tub make sure it is only pool shock no algecide etc
      6 garbage bags, some to fit into a 5 gallon pails, for a makeshift toilet and a seat for said bucket, even a pool noodle will work, and other garbage bags to cover windows etc
      7 tape like packing tape gorilla tape etc
      8 laundry bar soap
      9 toilet plunger the cheap red ones. Drill some 3/8holes in it then use it to wash your clothes in a bucket see y2k tub for videos on this
      10 vinegar white for cleaning instead of pinesol and vinegar is good to disinfect
      11 rope
      12 wipes good for a sponge bath
      13 several fire extinguishers
      14 baking soda for health, cleaning and putting out fires and absobi g orders from your makeshift toilet
      15 charcoal pulverized to size of lentils wash it then you can use it t to filter taste, odor and chemicals from your water. Or go to pet store and buy activated charcoal
      16 camp stove I suggest a Coleman propane stove or similar and get an adapter hose to attach a 20lb propane tank to your stove
      17 last but not least your imagination. Use it to guide you what do use now to prep meals clean etc then look for alternatives to use in a grid down scenario
      Hope this list helps

    All done and dusted, enough to last more than a year, two years if I rationed properly. Anyone who is a practical person would have prepped long before the pandemic. My parents grew most of our food in the garden. They survived WWI and WWII in the UK. We always had a warm fire in the winter, fresh organic foods, and clothes my mother sewed for us. My father could build or repair many items. Shoes were repaired at home, we rode bikes and went blackberrying in the summer. I am very grateful for everything they taught me, because I know I will survive and thrive under almost any circumstances. I plan to teach my little grand-daughter how to be resilient. To me, that is one of the most precious gifts we can pass on from one generation to the next.

The factories may have to stop producing food which in turn will mean empty shelves, I want to have food stored.

      Yeah, I remember when that happened a year or so ago also- with the shutdown as well as this recent situation with the beginning of the COVID lockdown in that started in March of this year (regarding the beginning of the shortages). On both occasions, what many people thought would never happen did indeed actually happened. All of this is even more the reason why it is important to at least start storing up stuff for the winter and also for times or situations such as the two that I've mentioned above. Being proactive and prepared will definitely pay off in the long run.

      My husband and myself back in October 2019 finished building our food storage shelves. When it was done I said ok, let’s stock up, so we did including pet food for a year. I was so glad we did because then covid hit. I had friends tell me that the could not find pet food. I honestly was shocked about this. As well as toilet paper shortages. I do not know why we felt so strong about stocking up at that time. But I am glad we did, we didn’t have any concerns about running out of supplies. But I was still shocked at what was going on and was glad we listened to our gut feeling.

And I'm not knocking my fellow Americans, before anyone gets upset, as I agree there are always exceptions to the norm. This is something they claim to teach in school, but when they say a portion of meat is the size of a deck of cards, does that really help? Do many kids still play cards anymore? And a serving of beans looks different than a serving of steak, which looks different than a serving of shrimp, etc. My point is, a can of soup often has more than enough protein for one person, it just doesn't look like what people are used to when they think of protein.

      @@TheProvidentPrepper The biggest lesson I learned from my mother is to never waste anything. There is just so much food waste these days, if she were alive she would be grieved by it. One thing just came to mind. Dumplings! If she made too much dumpling mix, instead of putting it all in the stew, she would keep the extra back. Then she would just steam it over a pan of plain water and let it go cold. Next day for lunch she would slice it and fry it in whatever she had. Savoury might be fried in a little dripping (pork dripping is best!), sprinkle a little salt on and it's a tasty snack. For a sweet, she would fry slices in the tiniest little bit of butter and sprinkle with sugar, unless she had some leftover custard. (I think custard may mean something different in the US!). I'm guessing a lot of people would throw up their hands and call that unhealthy, but when you rationed, or hungry, you can't be picky. My parents made it to nearly 90 years old so I'm guessing it's not that unhealthy!

    -One was he wished he left before the Socialist State went all Socialist and nutty.
    -Another was he ran out of stored food and going to the store for potting soil, etc. yearly was to expensive (learn to grow your own and store seeds for the next year)
    -Learn as many skills as possible from repairing your vehicle (improvising equipment for "make shift")
    -Go out and meet other people around you who grow foods, farm, etc that can help you and vice versa (you're "on your own" and the State just sit there enjoying the Rule of Law)
    -Living off the land is almost impossible for the vast majority so just "bugging out" into the woods in a worst case will leave you and your family as skeletons in the woods
    -Have alternate currencies (ammo, food, skills, security, silver/gold/jewelry, other nations currency/digital, TP, meds, smokes, weed, spare bed, etc.)
    -Water collection/purification.

If folks like us can be prepared when all we have to do it with is Social Security, then, there is no reason anyone else can't. Some of us have learned to be frugal, and make the most of what we have. Being frugal is not 'fashionable'. Even wealthy people are going to find out the hard way, that having one's priorities in order is necessary, and that a person needs to keep learning new skills, because money will be worthless. You are totally correct about the Boy Scout's motto, sadly, it is off the radar of many people, who seem to think that the government will cover all their needs from cradle to grave.

    Regardless of the situation, we all need to stockpile in case of emergencies. Looking at CV19 and all the shelves being emptied was the perfect example of having a stockpile so we don’t have to go through not having toilet paper and all the necessary essentials. Another good source for stockpiling if the electricity goes out are battery packs for our cell phones, propane tanks and charcoals for our bbq grills. Look at the East Coast and how we recently lost power from the storm. You don’t have to buy much or spend thousands of dollars on food and essentials, just replace what you used and pick up extra. Oh, and definitely stock up on powered milk for the kids, fill up your gas containers, and always try to maintain the gas tank in your car on high just in case.

Warm socks for "sleep socks" and a knit stocking cap to keep your head warm will make a big difference when the thermostat doesn't work. Pull out the extra comforter (saved or from a thrift store) is a fairly light weight way to add extra insulation on top. Flannel sheets are another help stay warm item.

      @Lisa Surlie Providing I can afford the generator and only for as long as I have enough fuel/power stored to operate it. I'm miles away from a natural gas pipe line. Plus, there's no guarantee the flow from that line will flow, regardless of what happens to the line.
      I'd love to have a whole house, NG powered version. However, that's not to be. Generator, permanent install (I can't physically move large ones) and stored fuel are expensive, regardless of the fuel source. Upcoming propane contract for this winter is $2.19 per gallon.
      BTW, Using a gasoline powered generator is not an option, as I can't carry 5 gallon cans of fuel. Plus, limited shelf life must be taken into consideration.
      Bottom line: Regardless of the capability of a generator or its fuel source, generators are limited by the amount of fuel/power that can be stored to operate them. When the fuel runs out or is disrupted we will still "be out of power".
