Shelves are emptying and now prices are about to jump again. This is the moment your crazy prepper friends tried to warn you about. This is your last chance to prepare for the worst.
Guns and ammo: doesn't have to be fancy. Get something you are comfortable hunting and defending yourself with.
Food: canned goods. Anything that has a shelf life longer than 6 months. Hopefully this won't last longer than a few weeks, but hope is not a game plan. Anticipating the worst is.
Warm clothing and blankets: remember the Texas deep freeze? Plan for that times 10 if you want to make it.
That's all basic stuff you can and should get right now... God bless and protect, Frens... We'll make it.
I think a lot of people have been buying extra food for many months. I haven't seen the kind of stupid, two grocery carts full of toilet paper buying I saw last year. I am seeing that people are buying canning supplies, bulk sized bags of staples like flour and rice, canned meats and vegetables and of course cat food because apparently even the people not buying extra food for themselves are buying massive stockpiles of cat food.
