You nailed it. I have been prepping and circulating out food for 3 years now. I only have so much money and what I do with it has to be thought out how I spend it. I buy only what I need . My money isn't increasing so I have to be smart. Just changing up a few things I am doing just fine. I see people bitching but they are not changing their spending habits to make it easier on themselves. I hear people say I am broke before my next check and yet they still do everything they did before shtf. Well of course your broke , because you haven't stopped buying stuff that you don't really need. Do I like having to cut back? No but I do it because that is the time we are in and I am adjusting to the times. When things get better I may splurge on a candy bar but until then I don't need it. Thanks for video stay safe snake.
You nailed it. Thanks for watching and commenting!
I *like* cutting back because it proves to me that I won't miss most of it. No paid entertainment in a decade, and in the past few years I have purchased exactly one coffee shop coffee and no foods anywhere but the grocery store. I never think about a coffee and donut when I pass a shop, anymore. There's no temptation because it never enters my mind to do it now.
Prepping is good but no money will prep our bodies. I am not "a fitness" guy but I ruck a lot. Rucking and squats are a good start. SHTF may kill unfit people very easily
Indeed. Thanks for watching and commenting!
I grew up living off the land. My Mom would go to town and spend $20-$25 for a family of 5. We milked a cow, we raised our own meat, we planted our gardens. Today I live off the land. I spend a lot more at the store because of inflation, but I keep the amount I spend down to a minimum. Prepping is the only way people are going to make it. I agree with you 100%. Great video, thanks for sharing. There's a lot we can do to save and get ahead. God bless!!!
Thanks for the view and comment!
I wish I had your knowledge. I was spoiled and never taught squat.
Great video. Thanks for sharing. As a prepper, the biggest budget cut we've made is shutting off our heat and AC. We learned to heat and cook solely with wood in winter. In summer, take the time to acclimate to the heat. We live in Florida and don't run AC. Also we keep the hot water heater off all the time unless absolutely necessary. We water the livestock and gardens with IBC totes attached to gutters. There's tons of ways to save that adds up.
I still run ac, but keep it in the eighties during the summer. Otherwise i feel too cold when I've been outside a lot. You've made big cuts! Thanks for the view and comment!
We've been turning off the hot water tank at the fuse box for years
@@SurvivalTheory for us, it isnt as much about saving money as it is practicing and preparing. In shtf, you're not going to have a clothes dryer. So why not shut it off now and learn to hang your clothes? Saves money as a secondary bonus. Same with heat, ac, cooking. Leave the electric/gas stove alone and get used to cooking on a woodstove, bbq grill, or open flame. Saves money. Paper towel stocks will eventually run out. Get used to using rags and things you can wash, in lieu of paper towels. Growing a small container garden can dramatically reduce costs at the grocery store and give you the practice you'll need for shtf when the shelves are completely empty. If a prepper is practicing skills, they should inherently be saving money as they become more producers of goods and services and less consumers of them.
More gardening, hunting, and don't drive anywhere anymore! Awesome work as usual, Keep it up!👍👍🇺🇸🌲🔥

Remember.... don't die before you die.
Tried your grandpa/old main driving approach and drove 190.6 miles on 9.652 gallons = 19.74 MPG. In a 5.7L 4x4 Tundra, many times the same trip was around 16.5-17 mpg so it's a nice increase. Never once floored it, or hit passing gear (out of character for my driving) and was through very mountainous terrain - Show Low AZ to Mesa AZ. My wife said it was her most enjoyable drive on that route ever. As an added bonus, much less wear and tear on the drive train.
Awesome. Thanks for watching and commenting!
Bought a ham at Easter time for $10.00, had the butcher slice it in half inch slices, 11 slices and a ham hock for a pot of beans...so. brought it home and vac packed each slice
..so. $1 a slice with bag. Prepackaged slices are bout $10.00 a slice....saved a ton...
Thats a lot of saving! Thanks for watching and commenting!
I found hams at Food Lion for 99 cents a pound. I bought 5😂😂😂The freezer is full of ham.
Agree 100%. Since March a 30ct package of eggs jumped from @ $4.59 to $9.01.😯Eggs for Christ sake!! Bean and rice seems to be the smarter way for sure. It’s filling and can be pretty tasty if prepared creatively. Definitely have been stocking up before they’re $10. Peanut butter and jelly sandwiches are always delicious 😋.
Peanut butter and jelly is an essential. Thanks for watching and commenting!
PB and jelly are food groups I thought.... 😳
Finding fresh bread is difficult.
@@kendroberts1 - Yes, the day is coming that we'll have to soon find out how to make Jewish bread daily. It's better for you and tastes better. Make just what you need for that meal. Quick and easy. No waste. I found this out at a Jewish Seder on Easter.
We rely too much on the groc store. That bread is just short of poison anyway.
I've been growing my own food for years. I knew a food shortage could always happen. Now the Gov is warning of a food shortage and in their own word, a famine. Everyone with a Yard needs to start planting food producing plants, bushes, and trees. You can buy adult versions of these at nurseries so you don't have to wait 10 years for the fruits/berries/nuts. Food is super easy to make. There is no reason why we should run out. Stop growing grass in your yards and get the stuff that will keep you alive. I have apple, plum, pear, cherry and pawpaw trees. A dozen of each except for the Pawpaw. I have 32 of them. Man those are good. For bushes i have hazel nuts, aronia berries, autumn olive, black raspberries, service berries, honey berry, sea buckthorn (my favorite), Teaberry, creeping wintergreen, spicebush, that's all i can think of off the top of my head. My yard makes about 10,000 pounds of food a year. I give most of it away. But i have hundreds of canning jars if i need them. If it gets worse i'll do a normal garden and also get some chickens. It's best to pre buy all your garden seeds too. Like right now. Get extra and don't plant them. You never know. Next year there might not be any.
Yep. Thanks for watching and commenting!

Great video! A wise prepper be: think like a wise prepper and be so. What will most people do when the evil ones shut off the power? No light, no water, no Internet, no mobile phones, no gas pumps, no traffic control systems, no emergency response, no HVAC, no refrigeration, no trash collection, no transportation, no sewer, no groceries. Wise ones with solar rigs on their RVs or yatchs will be using up their ammo if they've stayed clear of the cities. Throw another raider on the barbie.
Excellent points. ❤️ I was talking to my gf today, telling her we need to go thru the food and see what SHE would eat. She's picky. Inventorying..... what we have for actual meals, not just snacks and bits.
Beautiful scenery. Very peaceful despite the subject. I have to admit I go eat out at TxRdHs a lot. I'm going to enjoy my time before it gets crazy. Those people are like family too. I try to get them to see they need to be ready for it. Deaf ears but I try to spread the Word. As I can.....
Be safe brother! 🎈🥳🎈 Keep it coming while we can.
Watch out for those tx roadhouse burgers... they are deliciously addicting. Thanks for watching and commenting!
If you live in a cold place, put up thick curtains over every doorway in your house in winter. Insulation is a poor man's solution to the rising cost of heating your home.
... and very practical!
Great video, Snake...I'm right there with you...doing my best, a bit at the time...
Thanks for the watch and words!
The only resturant I go to any more is Texas Roadhouse. I hit it about once a month, I guess. 2 tall draft bud lights and an 8-ounce filet with a nice tip runs me about $50. Last night I was at the grocery and got a 3 pack of nice rib eyes for 24.75 (got to watch for those sales) and 9 pints of Coors light for 13.09. For less than one meal at TR I'm set for dinner Friday, Saturday and Sunday.
Sweet. Thanks for watching and commenting!
I buy my meat in large pieces (top round sections, chuck sections) from a restaurant supply. It cost me half what the grocery stores are charging per pound.
I live on a fixed income, yet I still continue to put food by each month. I do it by discipline and sacrifice.
Nice one. Thanks for watching and commenting!
Haven't eaten at a restaurant, but maybe 4-5 times since late 2019. Even getting groceries from insta cart is cheaper and better quality than eating out. I can order a frozen pizza, 6 pack of soda if I wanted take out, and also get stuff like milk, veggies, meat that I need, all for about the same price as eating out or ordering pizza. Instant gratification fun food as well as some groceries that I needed.
For sure. Thanks for watching and commenting!
cool snake, good to hear your views on these subjects; would like to hear more like this
Thanks for the view and comment!
It's a great idea to prep food. Have a nice day.
And water. And ways to clean and purify your water once that runs out.
You can only go 3 days without water. And the last 18 hours of that is hell. Drinking dirty water can kill you too.
Thanks for watching and commenting!
Great Advice! All things considered, I would LOVE that price per gallon! My last partial fill-up was $161.13 for 27.6 gallons.
Ouch. Thanks for the watch and words!
If you're in inner city when it hits.... it won't matter what the price is.
@@redfaux74 I'm not.
@@GrandpaD78 - Good choice. Be safe!
very true sir! if i'm at the store, when i need one, i get 2 if possible. and pinching pennies does create dollars!
Yep. Thanks for watching and commenting!
Another great video.
I'm as prepared as I can be. I'm sure there's things I've overlooked but I have food and other items. I'm good on guns and ammo also.
Good video. Good talk. God bless. From Glenn CATT in Massachusetts.

yep. good advice as always sir.

I kick me car in neutral and coast down the hills, shut down my engine a long stop lights, it makes a big difference.
Sure does. Thanks for watching and commenting!
Humans are inherently pack creatures, your odds of survival increase dramatically when you've got people you can count on, they might not be who you expect either

It is ok to make comments on how the price of fuel and food is going up AND go out for a meal occasionally. Just because you can afford a meal out, doesn’t mean you must stay silent on the ever increasing prices of everyday items. And just because they might get a meal out or drive differently, doesn’t automatically mean they aren’t prepping to a degree that they are happy with. There’s a lot of ‘moral high ground’ and arrogance in the prepping community that suggests they ‘know better’ than everyone else. Every prepper thinks they are doing it right. But the reality is, everyone is a prepper. Nobody truly lives hand to mouth. We are all just on a spectrum of ‘degree’ of prepping. Some people feel ok with meals out and are happy with their stock of food at home. Does that mean they can’t make comment on the empty shelves and increased prices?? Come on now. Let’s not think we have it all sorted and then look down at others who do it different. Truth is, nobody has a totally foolproof prep and we should all be humble enough to recognise that.
I complain about prices AND still eat out...just not like I used to. Most of that is simply choosing to be healthier, but I've found a financial gain as well. If someone is prepping at all, then they are doing it right. The foolishness is not prepping at all, especially considering the environment we are currently in.
I dig into peoples' finances as part of my job on a regular basis, and I can tell you that MOST people are living above their means and headed for disaster due to situations that have developed over the past couple of years, and the situation is steadily getting worse. The problem is, MOST people are still trying to live a certain way for appearance rather than securing their situation by, for example, different shopping or driving habits. I gave personal examples of how I am combatting the increase in living expenses by making my pennies saved turn into dollars...lots of dollars. MOST people need to find ways to cut back, but they don't out of lack of knowledge or just plain foolishness. Yeah, there are some that can still afford to eat out on a regular basis or drive like gas is cheap...but I know there are not many of them that can afford that if they were to analyze their projected income vs. projected living expenses. I've seen the finances of people living in million dollar homes, a Jag in the driveway, and a Rolex on their wrist...and they are up to their necks in debt and own nothing, not even the furniture in their house....with no preps to boot. This video is for most people, and out of those most people, it is for those that want to find ways to cut back on expenses or find ways to have money for prepping.
Complaining about costs is one thing, doing something about it is another...and this was my rant about it.
Thanks for watching and commenting!
Good video Snake. Your example will help me keep the rpm's under 3k on this summer's camping trips. Tuck myself in behind a semi and get a tow. I did fill some jerry cans with gas at the start of the plandemic, just in case. They tell you gas can only be stored for so long without deteriorating but I've been burning three year old fuel in my Jetta for the last couple weeks and haven't noticed any difference in performance. Maybe add a few PSI's to the tires as well. Thanks Bro.
Also, topping up the refrigerant in the A/C system will enhance efficiency and improve fuel mileage.
I get behind the big trucks on long trips... really makes a difference. I use old fuel all the time... as long as there is no water in it I'm good to go. Thanks for watching and commenting!
We're in the beginning of SHTF, when it comes down hard and heavy many folks will shit themselves. Hard times make strong men easy times make weaklings.
Wish I could still buy good gas for $3.659 but it’s worse here. Trouble definitely ahead. Stock what Beans, Bullets & Bandaids you can, before it’s too late.
Yep. Thanks for watching and commenting!
...ammo shortages, only 3.5s 12 ga. available, scavage the shells powder and primers, rezsize, whatever, same with shells that you don't need, but find, primers and powder are hard to come by...
Yep. Thanks for watching and commenting!
My wife went to the store today to get dogfood. Most of the stuff was gone.
Slim pickings. Thanks for watching and commenting!
Well if it makes you feel any better we are paying $6.22 a gallon for diesel right now and would love to pay less
Ouch. Thanks for the view and comment!
I got rid of my wife.............I'm saving hundreds.
Thousands... Thanks for watching and commenting!
I refused to get one. I retired at 45 with everything paid for!😂😂😂😂👏👏👏🏆🏆🏆
@@squirrelcovers6340 SCORE!! Yeah, keep it that way my man. We parted 3 years ago not wanting anything from each other and I'll tell ya, Thailand is a MUST!!
More like $30 per person for an inexpensive restaurant.
Yep. Thanks for watching and commenting!
With alcohol at $6 to $9 for one drink and $2.99 for fountain drink? Easy ways to save.
Bicycle fuel @ my local liquor store has increased, so now i pedal me arse less & walk more

You must be new to the channel. He's been saying this for years.
What make and model truck do you drive that takes 32 gallons to fill.?
I appreciate you for posting this, it’s good to hear sound peoples thoughts
35 gallons. F150. My old one was 37 gallons.
@@SurvivalTheory hmmm. Okay.
Thank you sir!
Thanks Snake! I have an off topic question. Do you have a problem in your area with ticks, and what suggestions do you have for camping in tick infested areas? Thanks!!!
25mpg? 😂 you need to change your vehicle! I get 50mpg driving normally in an average, very comfortable, five door estate.
I need what I drive. Thanks for watching and commenting!
@@SurvivalTheory I bet there’s way more efficient alternatives you could drive. Your video is ranting about how people moan but don’t do anything different. Take your own advice and get a more efficient vehicle instead of moaning about it and not doing anything.
@@pete3816 I'm willing to consider if you're willing to pay for the alternative.
Most can't afford to buy a vehicle based solely on gas mileage or just run out and buy a new vehicle because fuel went up. . You're betting silly.
@@SurvivalTheory deal. I’m getting you a Citroen Ami. You’ll love it!
Have your seen the food processing plants having malfunctions or fires? It's.. A weird amount.
I'm monitoring... Thanks for watching and commenting!
Yes, Snake needs to do a video on that alone.....
Just saying. 🤨
There are over 36,000+ food processors in the United States. A couple dozen every few months is NEGLIGIBLE.😊
@@squirrelcovers6340 - You cannot include mom and pop shops. They won't ship anything to anyone in a crisis. They'll take care of their own and no one else. We're talking about processing plants that feed 90% of the USA.
Also if you stop bringing in food from Canada, Mexico China and Europe.... then you've eliminated 50% of our variety alone. That has already happened. Groc CEOs are now saying they may have 3 to 6 months of food available. People are being paid to stay home again, less production. Restaurants are having a hard time staffing....
Deny reality all you want. They're PAYING farmers more NOT to produce food. SHTF is not coming. It's here. Gas prices, diesel alone, will drive up prices 2 to 4 times last years prices. Gates owns 40% of ALL farm land now and he's not growing food. He's preventing food production. Look at his Ted Talks. Population control - Vaccines, Health services, energy limitation, Services.... He said it with his own mouth and it's recorded. Why are they eliminating those videos you suppose?
