Sorry for the black pill… but there’s really no other way to address this issue. we NEED to be prepared for the worst case scenario even though we may not ever get there. And those who have not yet prepared, let’s help them out.
Here’s why one needs to be prepared for the worst…

I think it’s time we help each other with preparing for potentially the worst. I believe we will jump into a severe depression, so our commodities may actually end up being tradable goods and benefit us.
Please contribute information for our fellow community members who may not understand much about prepping. I will comment below as well.
Yes, I got a bottle of those bleach tablets last year because of all the craziness with cleaning supplies, couldn't find liquid bleach anywhere. We didn't need it at the time but wanted to buy just one bottle of bleach to have. When no store had any I saw the tablets and said well this could be even better as it will be easier to store. We have been just picking a few extra items each time we hit the store, so as not to have to buy a bunch of items last minute and to have plenty on hand in case we can't get them.
I have Katadyn and Sawyer. katadyn are very expensive and don't have the gallon capacity of sawyer. You can get a 3 pack of sawyers for around $50. Each one lasts for over a million gallons because they can be reversed flushed. The Katadyn is good for 10k gallons before a filter change is needed. The $300 one well built, but heavy and can be scrubbed because it is a ceramic one. The Sawyers are light weight and don't/can't be disassembled. They used to make a .02 micron filter that was the best in the world. It would actually filter out viruses. It was only $125
Where did u get bleach tabs ,, TY
Type "bleach tabs" in Amazon search and you'll see a selection of cheap and reliable old fashioned bleach tabs. That's what I did.
Thank you so much , doing it now , you’re so right about storage
At Walmart
