5 items every prepper should consider for emergencies
Alright guys, today I want to give you five items every prepper should have, and these are not the typical rice and beans or the flashlight everyone talks about. These are real tools that give you an advantage in a crisis.
First is a gas siphon pump. Most people forget how fast gas stations run out during any disaster. If the power is down, the pumps are dead. A siphon pump lets you pull fuel from abandoned equipment, cars,, lawnmowers, generators, anything that has fuel in it. You stay mobile, you keep your generator running, and you are not stuck hoping a gas station magically opens back up.
Next is a bulletproof jacket. Yes, they make these. Level 3A jackets that look like normal clothing. I talked about this inside Prepper Academy. You get quiet protection without drawing attention. In a real crisis you do not want to look tactical. You want to blend in and still be protected from handgun threats. These jackets are perfect for that.
Third is sandbags. Preppers forget about these. Sandbags give you an instant barrier around doors, windows, and weak areas of your house if things get dangerous. They slow down incoming fire and give you a fighting position if the neighborhood goes bad. And they are also useful for floods. If a water main breaks or a storm hits, sandbags keep water out of your home. They even help with embers and small debris during a fire. They are cheap, easy to store flat, and you can fill them in minutes.
Fourth is a good countertop water filter. Not a basic kitchen filter, I mean a real gravity fed system that can take outdoor water, lake water, rainwater, and make it safe to drink. The one I use filters the equivalent of sixty eight thousand plastic water bottles. In a crisis, clean water is everything. If you can filter your own, you have a massive advantage over everyone else standing in line for bottled water.
For the fifth item, Get a handheld thermal camera or binoculars. This is one of the most underrated tools in prepping. You can detect people or animals in the dark, see heat signatures through smoke, locate intruders hiding behind bushes, and even check your house for heat loss in winter. In a post crisis environment, being able to see what others cannot is a huge edge. Maybe you guys don't agree with me but I think for tactical purposes at night, its so valuable.
These five items might not be on every prepper checklist, but they give you mobility, protection, water security, and home defense, That is the level you want to be operating at.

10 Powdered Prepping & Survival Foods To Stockpile
Ten powdered foods everyone should stock up on right now. These are lightweight, long lasting, and give you real calories and real nutrition during an emergency.
Store these in airtight containers or mylar bags with oxygen absorbers and they will last for years, some even decades.
Number one is whey protein. This gives you quick protein in any situation. If the stores close and meat disappears, this becomes one of the easiest ways to hit your daily protein and stay strong. It takes very little space and lasts a long time.
Number two is corn starch. This is a thickener and a base ingredient. You can stretch soups, stews, and sauces with it. In a long emergency, stretching your food is a life saver.
Number three is baking soda. This is a must have because it handles cooking, cleaning, deodorizing, and even basic hygiene. One container can be used hundreds of different ways.
Number four is powdered skim milk. This gives you calcium, protein, and fats when fresh milk is impossible to find. It lasts for years if stored correctly and you can use it in baking or drink it straight.
Number five is powdered eggs. Real eggs are one of the first foods to disappear. Powdered eggs let you cook breakfast, fry rice, bake bread, and still get high quality protein without refrigeration.
Number six is peanut butter powder. It gives you protein and healthy fats and you can add it to shakes, oatmeal, or baking. This is one of the most calorie dense powders you can store.
Number seven is cocoa powder. It boosts morale, it gives you antioxidants, and you can use it in drinks, desserts, and baking. During long emergencies, morale foods matter more than people think.
Number eight is powdered butter. Fat is the hardest thing to store long term. Powdered butter gives you the ability to cook, fry, and add calories to meals when fresh butter is long gone.
Number nine is the Augason Farms pancake mix. This stuff has a ten year shelf life and you only need water. This gives you carbs and calories instantly. It is cheap, easy to store, and extremely useful.
Number ten is cinnamon. It improves taste, helps preserve foods, and gives you flavor when everything else tastes bland. You can add it to oats, rice pudding, baked goods, and drinks.
These powdered foods are compact, cheap, and last for years. If you add them to your prepper pantry now, you will have calories, protein, fats, and flavor even in the worst emergencies. Stock up while everything is still available.

WATER PREPAREDNESS

Water is the most important part of preparedness. You can survive weeks without food, but only a few days without water. During a crisis, water systems can get contaminated, shut off, or overwhelmed. When that happens, people panic. Stores sell out instantly. That is why water storage is the foundation of every emergency plan.

How Much Water You Need
A good rule is one gallon of water per person per day for drinking and basic use. If you want a safer buffer, store two gallons a day. This covers drinking, cooking, cleaning, and basic hygiene. If you have pets, add them into your plan. Babies, seniors, and sick family members may need more.

How To Store Water
There are many ways to store water. The simplest is bottled water. You can stack a few cases and have an immediate supply. Larger options include water bricks, five to eight gallon jugs, and fifty five gallon drums. If you have space, a drum can hold almost two months of drinking water for one person. Make sure you store water in a cool and dark place and avoid keeping it next to chemicals or gasoline.

How To Make Questionable Water Safe
If you ever run out of stored water, you need to know how to make unsafe water drinkable. The first method is boiling. Bring the water to a rolling boil for at least one full minute. This kills most bacteria and viruses. The second method is water purification tablets. These are cheap, small, and easy to store. They work well for emergencies.

Filtering Water
A high quality water filter is one of the most important tools you can own. Handheld filters, gravity filters, and home countertop filters can remove most contaminants. Filters do not replace stored water but they give you backup options. Always have more than one way to purify water.

Off Grid Options
During long term emergencies, natural water sources like lakes, rivers, and rainwater can become important. If you collect rainwater, make sure you run it through a proper filter before drinking. If you use a stream or river, pick flowing water when possible. Always assume outdoor water is contaminated until you filter or boil it.

Why Water Matters More Than People Realize
Food shortages get attention. Water shortages are worse. When water stops flowing from the tap, every part of life becomes harder. Cooking becomes harder. Cleaning becomes harder. Staying healthy becomes harder. People underestimate how fast dehydration hits. They also underestimate how quickly the public panics when water supplies get disrupted.

Preparedness gives you peace of mind. When you have a real water plan, you do not rush to the store during every emergency announcement. You already have what you need. That confidence is what sets preppers apart from the rest of society.

Being prepared for the unexpected

Christy waited tables at a hip little bistro a few blocks from her apartment. Though she loved her neighborhood, she always prepared for the unexpected.

One night, one of the diners got a little out of hand. She could put up with rude customers, and she could even tolerate patrons who had a little too much to drink.

She and her boss agreed that anyone who tried to lay hands on her or on any of the wait staff would end up enjoying the rest of their meal "to go."

So her boss ejected a customer who looked like a rumpled college professor after he tried to pinch Christy's bottom. The guy created a huge stink, but the customers applauded when he fell down the steps and landed on the sidewalk with a thud.

Later that night, after Christy banked out and counted her tip money, she headed back down the street to her place. She thought she heard footsteps behind her, but saw nobody when she swung around.

Another block away from the restaurant, she thought she heard a trash can rattle. Still, she couldn't see anyone in the shadows.

Only a few steps away from her building's front door, Christy heard someone sneeze. She whipped around to see the drunken customer from earlier that night.

He lunged at her, shouting, "I'll show you!"

Instead of bolting for the door - she wouldn't have made it in time, anyway - she pulled out her keys. Instead of a usual keychain, Christy carries a Key Chain Pepper Spray. It's small enough to fit in a purse, and durable enough to inflict pain on an attacker.

As the drunken patron grabbed for her hair, Christy ducked down and sprayed the attacker in the eyes. Wincing in pain, he buckled over and made another swipe at her. She retaliated by holding onto the spray and swinging her keys against his face.

Christy's attacker crouched on the sidewalk while she dialed 9-1-1 on her cell phone.

"Next time," Christy said, "stick to what's on the menu."
