What does your go bag look like?

[Chris Daley]

Do you have a full size hold luggage one, a smaller carry on one or just a back pack?

 

I have chosen the carry on suitcase with a back pack.  3 pairs of clothes.  I will leave all non essential things.  Just my degree and transcripts, a few small things.  But the big ones will have to stay.  All the nice shirts, the piano, the dumbbells.

 

How about you?  What is the capacity of your go bag?

I guess seeing I don't have a degree I don't know what a go bag is.

if you need to leave urgently in case WW3 breaks out?

[KhunLA]

Why & where where I go anywhere ?

 

If the world went to sh!t, I have water, food, energy right here.  Everything I need.   Leaving and I wouldn't have any of that guaranteed any place else, as I'd be dependent on others or govt to supply.

 

They've failed miserably at that in that past.

[Jeff the Chef]

Don't need any bags if WWIII breaks out while I'm in Thailand, I'll just sit on the porch fag in one hand, drink in the other, while trying to convince her indoors a BJ would be nice before we go.

Anywhere else it would be bend over time and kiss my behind goodbye.

[MisterTee]

My take on this - and I may be wrong - is that the OP is anticipating some sort of domestic calamity rather than a worldwide apocalypse.

[Sandboxer]

Depends on size of bag but in general, minimum:

 

1. Passport

2. Brick of cash + gold

3. Tactical knife or knife/axe combo (in the US, add a Glock 9)

4. Pack of Amoxicillin (broad spectrum antibiotic)

5. Small first aid kit incl. tourniquet

6. Extra sets underwear & socks

7. Charcoal+immodium tablets for water purification/gastrointestinal

8. Power bank

9. Mosquito repellent lotion satchels

10. Nyson high tensile strength rope at least 10m in length strong enough to abseil with but thin enough to fit into bag.

11. Tactical gloves

 

This should all fit into a standard rucksack.

 

If bag is larger, add extra shoes if you have very big feet and are unlikely to be able to wear the shoes of other casualties from the zombie apocalypse you pass by. Tent. Tactical axe.

I think it will be better to dig in at home,we have a garden,fish, a deep water well and a roof to stay under.

I think a go bag is more for conspiracy minded people.

When the shxt really hits the fan the locals will come and get everything any ways.

Some people watch too many movies.

Human made Zombie or Blood-Sucker type virus, Aliens of course, Earth's core slows and stops, Earth itself stops, Damn Dirty Apes, Killer Bees, Meteorites, Liquid Hot Magma and heat death of the Universe, also that movie where all the animals on Earth are affected by some form of radiation and become feral, super aggressive, and Leslie Nielsen fights a bear mono e mono.

Have you got the shoes to match, as well?

If so, get you Duckie, love the colour. 🤣🥰🤪

Nice clutch ... hope you have a nice pair of pumps to go with that 😎

[BakedPanda]

1) Main daypack / laptopbag: always with me: all essentials
2) Normal bagpack, could fit the main daypack inside + clothes, first aid, more stuff like that.
3) Large backpack that cna fit normal bagpack and daypack with survival gear, in case i remain stuck here, as well as solar / powerbanks, sat phone etc.

In normal conditions just my main daypack and a carry on suitcase with clothes, doesn't take much time to pack anyway and if it is worse you likely can't even go back to get your bags anyways too. That is why I always carry my main one with me.

 

At the end, with enough money, you can buy any items needed on the way again. Buy a biz class flight emirates and you now have a full equiped toilet bag, then buy some clothes in free duty and take a shower + change in the business lounges.

They sell them on Shopee a lot cheaper than a biz class tckt, a word to the wise.

Not sure is they are good to go, but I like them. 😉

Why don't you just read the replies to your topic on the subject posted on July 2? How many go bag topics do we need?

 

 

[Will B Good]

40L rucksack to check and a 15L backpack to carry on.

 

Absolutely hate suitcases.

[Cameroni]

I have a Delsey hard shell suitcase plus a nameless rucksack made specifically for air travel that is indestructible. I particularly like the latter because its dimensions seem to satisfy any airline.

No, a nice pair of shoes by Jimmy Choo is what you need instead of these.

[nauseus]

Well, it is very different to my come bag.

A lot. Multiple, Many.

Or we might get too complacent.

FFS, everybody is a two-bit cross dresser these days. Just because JD Vance does it, now suddenly everyone else has got FOMO.

yea, you're gonna walk around with gold bricks when the zombie apocalypse breaks out.

the zombies will fry your brains with onions and then take the gold bar from you.

not necessarily in that order. 

crypto might be better. use a good password on your wallet.

Buying a business class Emirates flight seems a remarkably expensive way of acquiring a toilet bag, if Emirates is still flying then 7/11 will probably still be open.

 

Anyway, to answer the OP, I always carry a Swiss Army Knife!

Put on your trifocals and read what I wrote, gramps!^^😁

 

BricK (singular) of cash.

 

It weighs nothing, and neither do a few ounces of gold. Ideally small bullion bars so the weight/value is clear. 

 

 

[orang37]

I'm into backpacks, so this backpack would be my go-to bag. Because it's stylish.

[KhunLA]

Carry my go bag with me all the time, has phone, wallet & passport in it.  All I need 

 

... go to the store, Makro, 7-11

... go to coffee shop

... go to the park

... go to the surf

Could your 'go bag' also be called your 'completely f***ed bag' ???... 

 

.. If you lose it going to Makro, 7-11, coffee-shop, the park, or someone steels it while you are in the famous Kanchanaburi Surf....
