Thanks for this separate forum!
One thing to consider for you GAS generator owners. Gas doesnt store well. You get get tried fuel conversions that are affordable, that allow you to run gas, propane, or nat gas. I am unlucky enough NOT to have gas heat. But propane bottles give me a second option.
I know nothing about conversions but found this online. Anybody use them, before?

My contribution:
- Shelf stable foods- heat and or water or less.
- Additional refill on all prescriptions for the family- can purchase at low cost even if insurance won’t agree.
- Water storage and consumption plan- 1gal/day/person in the family- hope we don’t need this as it’s a sign SHTF if we did.
- Simple Bleach and water solution make a fine anti-bacterial/viral cleaner.
- Firearms- you can only shoot 2 at a time per person at most (ha ha), ammo would be more critical, but hopefully anyone here is already well stocked in that respect. Even .40 has value in the apocalypse.
- If you have a baby hopefully you’ve got 1+ month supply of diapers (I do!).
Is it time to stock up?
