Am looking at sale ads to see what else I can put aside. It's kinda hard because this time of year the items on sale are potato chips and soda.[b] Looking at getting some charcoal set aside as a backup cooking fuel.[/b] [/quote] This is the time when charcoal sales at HD,Lowes happen,keep your eyes peeled and get a bunch. [/quote] Yeah, I've been looking at sales and decided that maybe I should take advantage of the sales while I still can. This fall is gonna be a whole different game. Edit: I've been thinking about how Koreans would put a charcoal burner under a table and everyone would sit around it to keep warm in the winter. There's issues with carbon monoxide to consider but all in all, a possible solution to staying warm in the winter if you are in a drafty house. Edit 2: There's a table in the garage that I can cut down to sitting size and I have a chess/checkers set to play while the snow flies outside. Oh, and a 4000 volume library. If all else fails, I'll be fed and warm and entertained. [/quote] I just took about half an hour to answer this post, say NO NO NO to indoor charcoal use, and give two really great suggestions. Suddenly, it all disappeared. Now I'm thoroughly disgusted. [/quote] Apparently it's been used for hundreds of years. I wouldn't do it without a modern carbon monoxide detector in the room but I know people that are afraid to refuel a kerosene heater. I'm just looking at solutions for edge case uses. I've got many other ways to keep warm. [/quote]

Continuation of another thread of wonderful people with the best ever ideas for practical prepping even for those with little money.
We discuss power outages including CME and EMP, heating and cooking methods, first aid, foods; we run disaster scenarios to see if we know what to do.
This is probably the only prepping thread a person would need, whether long-time prepper here to share, or newbie prepper here to learn and everyone in between.
Welcome!! Join us! Learn! Teach! Enjoy!!
