What if you just watched the news or read something on the internet that makes you think there is an imminet disaster, war, terrorist attack, economic melt down, on the very close horizon, the next day or week, what are the final preps you have to rush out and get? (it doesn't matter if you've been prepping for a week or 5 years, what is your final, doable, list)
My Imminent disaster, 72 hour final prep list is:
1. Head to Sams and grab $100 worth of food
2. Fill Gas Tanks, About $125
3. $500 ammo, quick purchase, I don't care what the price is.
4. Top off Propane tanks, about $100
5. Buy more Kerosene, about $100
6. Buy meat, at least $100
7. Microwave (Fairday cage) , unplug and store, Crank radios, Walkie Talkies, Cell Phones, Laptop, Data Backup Hard Drives, CB Radio's
8. Arms Inventory, Mags Load and Prepped, place rifles and guns for easy access and grab and go
9. Review supplies in Bug out Bags and position including Rotate Water, Place smaller rifle and pistol inside, add ammo to pack, check that boots are ready.
10. Fire up Bug out Vehicle, fuel up and recharge battery, top off fluids
11. Fire Extinguishers, Plastic Tarps, Duct Tape and Breathing Mask out and ready.
12. Start a big monster pot of bean soup in case the power goes out so cooking won't be a priority the first few days.
13. Head to the library and load up on books about canning, solar power, welding, gardening. If society takes a dive you don't have to return them.
14. Gather Parents and Kids for an extended "sleep over"
15. Contact Prepper friends to confirm emergency communications process
There is more you could add, but think,
1. you've got limited time... 72 hours to a week
2. you've got limited money... only $500 to $1000 to make more emergency purchases, might include credit cards
3. you've got to maintain appearances or the neighbors (or cops) will be knocking at the door...
4. you've got to still go to work and maintain your life..
