Did anyone else see the glint in Leisa’s eye when she said you should have some contractor trash bags handy…. “you never know when you might need to take care of something.“ Trespassers?! 😂

I started removing the batteries from items and placing them in a plastic storage bag attached to the item, so they don't corrode inside the item and ruin it. They're also right there when needed.

I stock up on vinegar, baking soda, ammonia, dr Bronners unscented Castile soap, TP, first aid items, household safety equipment. Our tornado shelter is stocked up with everything we need including a way to get out in case we get trapped. We have been doing this for so long, we have put a lot of thought into emergencies.

Omgosh! So glad i was alone. I laughed SO hard, Out loud, about the large contractors bags. Thank you for that!

When I first moved into my house in 2003, the seller put a list of important phone numbers on the inside of the cabinet door under the kitchen sink. I’ve continued to keep it updated. I always thought it was a brilliant idea!

I use vinegar with water to clean windows. I make my own citrus all purpose cleaner by putting citrus peels in vinegar for a couple months, then straining it into a spray bottle, half and half with water and a few drops of dishwashing liquid. Both of these work better than store bought and save a ton of money.

Also the fire blankets that can hang on a pegboard or on a wall in your kitchen are great, especially if you are older and have a hard time lifting extinguishers.

Clothing!! Especially socks and underwear for every person in your family would be a wonderful thing to have in an emergency!!

I lost my husband this month, age 66. 39 years of marriage. Please pray for my strength and guidance through Jesus 😢. I'm a preparedness person. My food will last longer now. I need strength to take care of our 3 acres homestead. Thank you ❤😢

Fire extinguishers are important items to have on hand, any day of the week! I gave them to our new neighbors when they moved into our brand-new subdivision. I also give them to friends & family for Christmas gifts.

Empty paper rolls are great fire starters especially if you stuff them with your dryer lint

[carolstrickland]

I would add a couple manual can openers. I keep them, yes multiple, with the canned goods I have stashed around as well as in the kitchen. Much easier to find what kind you like then get like 3 or so. Just my opinion.

😂 my husband showed me a video yesterday of a woman who ran out of toilet paper and reached for the kleenex. She then showed the vicks on the side & started singing this girl is on fiyaaah! 😂

There are bar lights that are motion sensitive. I keep one in the bathroom under a cabinet over the commode. Works like a CHARM! I also keep one in the kitchen. I put the batteries for that one in a bag in the drawer under it.
Gave them for gifts to my senior neighbors so they could light their whole path to the bathroom in the night. They stay on 30 seconds if motion stops.

May I offer a suggestion? From the Mom, Nurse, cook..well you know! Disposable Dry Washcloths. They are thick, they will hold up to cleaning the goo off of.. For your vehicle- ya know that side pocket that is the trash collection? Store 1 dry pack, 1 bottle of water, 1 small bottle of liquid antibacterial soap, a couple zip lock bags and a grocery bag or 3. Insert wipes in zip bags- pour in water- use as needed. You can also put hand sanitizer on the wipes and clean the goo off!

I have a thin decorative tin screwed to my wall looks just like a photo as it’s thin and I keep emergency money in it I think it’s a great idea because even my 2 grandchildren has never even paid attention to to it

I've been tracking all of the non-food items that we use regularly to figure out how much we use & how long one package of whatever it is lasts. The goal is to calculate how much we would need for 1 year & stocking up on a year's worth of a different item each payday. Then start again til 2 years, etc. Prices are just going to continue to go up, so I'd rather stock up at today's prices.

Sorry I missed the last 3 videos, my wife and I got really sick suddenly and I'm just getting to my phone to watch a backlog of missed videos. Still feel like shit, but I am proud to say that we have more than enough OTC meds to help. I'm glad we pay attention and follow you all.❤

I store matches in a metal can or a mason jar. My mil did this so a mouse can't chew to get to them.

I just finished my 6 year supply of kitchen trash bags from when my Dad went to Costco.
