Money

Currency and silver- dimes, not bullion. Know the value, also.

Dollars, 5s and 10s. You might not see a working credit card machine and if you salt away a few bucks, it couldn't hurt, anyway.

Re: Prep items most people don't think of
Make sure you have plenty of gauze, and bandages to deal with large bleeding wounds, enough to last at least a few days if not longer. I learned the hard way my kit was woefully inadequate from simply taking a stupid fall and shredding the crap out of my hand.

I'd also suggest getting some quick clot for the same reason. May be a pain to wash out later, but bleeding for days is not going to be a good time.

How is this a preper thread without someone going on and on about anal bleach for 3 pages?

Soaps, toilet paper, luxury canned soups, pet food and litter, flax seeds to ground up for egg substitutes, butter for the vitamins.

Nope, They want clean shaven faces for facial recognicion programs. Beards kind of mess up the AI's ability to differentiate certain facial types. Thus now is the perfect time for the CDC to make everybody get a shave.

Candies, chocolates. Bobs red mill makes a powdered egg replacement for baking. Chapsticks, extra toothbrushes, dry shampoo or baby powder for hair. A size up in shoes for kids.

Small hand crank clothes washer.

You'll need one, if you bug out into the woods. And, if you shelter in-place and lose power and/or water, they come in handy, too.

Amazon sells them. Search on "Wonderwash."

If someone gets sick and has nausea, canned peaches in heavy syrup will help.

I love board games. We don't have 100 but enough to keep us entertained. My youngest is 18 so its hard to get anyone to play with me.

Re: Prep items most people don't think of
I am not a avid prepper but I am prepped with the basics. Food, water, meds, alt heating and cooking sources, ammo, etc.

What are some things the average person doesn't think of prepping? For instance I have powdered Gatorade for this prep in the event someone gets sick.

Mice / rodent bait and traps. They can destroy your preps, piss and drop all over your can tops and eat your garden produce. They can destroy your clothes, chew up your TP and any other paper or plastic, the list is endless the damage they do to your house, health and supplies.
