Popular Post jvs Posted March 14, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted March 14, 2020 I decided it is time to start and stock up on a few things,looking at the world news i believe it is only a matter of days before the government starts to panic over here and the people will follow. I do not think there is any reason to panic but we will just have to deal with it. We have our own water supply and a large garden,the chickens and fish can provide us with protein for a month at least and we have lots of wood to cook food on if need be. Going out to stock up on a few things that might not be available if things grind to a halt. Toothpaste,shampoo,tiffy,paracetamol,hygiene products and some food that can last. Also some extra bags of chicken food,dog food and some vitamins. Again i am not panicking but just want to be ready if we are going to be told to stay at home for awhile. Any one feeling the same or different? 6 4 3 1 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Dmaxdan Posted March 14, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted March 14, 2020 (edited) Golden rule #1 If you are going to stock up with supplies then don't tell anyone!! Because, if and when the panic really starts you may be inundated with scroungers queuing up at your front gate!

Logosone Posted March 14, 2020 Share Posted March 14, 2020 I am doing it.(stocking up) I'm sorry you fell for the mumsnet panic, but I think you'll find that if you go down that route it's rather a big operation. Unless you get all the essential items doesn't seem much point. Here's the full list of what's needed from the pros: https://theprepared.com/prepping-basics/guides/emergency-preparedness-checklist-prepping-beginners/ 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As usual, you are totally wrong. But hey, tell us how many of those cases there are. Personally, I have a brace of M4s set up with Rails and 3x Trijicons as well as several thousand rounds of ammo and Mag Pul magazines. No one is getting my toilet paper, canned garbanzos and sardines! Molon Labe! 1 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bkk6060 Posted March 14, 2020 Share Posted March 14, 2020 I have family in Los Angeles. They are telling me hand sanitizer and toilet paper are difficult to find. Most of the larger discount stores are totally out. A minor inconvenience yes, but what will be next? I do not think if panic sets in people will be nice and polite and sharing. This is not like 911, where everyone gathered together. It will be every person for themselves and their family. Hope it does not come to that. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
