We set a goal a while ago to get our house stockpiled with food and supplies to last us at least 6 months. Well - we decided that with our income we could safely do it with $30.00 a week. Each week I make a list of items to get and we cannot spend more than the $30.00! It has worked awesome, much better than we thought that it would! We have only been doing this for a few months and we now have a stockpile that will last a few months. Some weeks I buy #10 cans of freeze dried foods. But, I keep the total under $30.00! This week I ordered 2 #10 cans of the TVP Beef bits from Emegency Essentials - $10.50 a can and the shipping and it was 27.00 ! Each can has 65 servings. Great in Hamburger Helper, chili, soups, and more.
Just make a plan and stick to it. Figure out for yourself how much that you can spend comfortably on your stockpile. PLAN PLAN PLAN

I just wanted to know what you bought your first week for your stockpile. I'm thinking I can start with 20.00 a week but don't really know what to start with. I'm thinking 10 cans of tuna and 10 cans of beans. I don't know. Maybe I'm over thinking. I really enjoy your blog.
ReplyDeleteThe first week I bought $20.00 worth of canned hams!!! They are awesome in beans of any type. Store well too.
ReplyDeleteThanks, good idea. I plan to do canned meats for a couple of weeks and move to veggies. I'll get there.
