WOW!! Grocery Shopping Was Not Fun This Week!!!

We had to go to get some fresh items at the grocery store this week. It was amazing how high everything was. I just got what we needed, some meat, water, a few snacks for the kids and I almost cried. I just cannot believe that food prices have went up that much. I came out of the store with 7 bags (plastic bags) of groceries and a case of water and it was $137.00!!!!!! I can not understand how it could be that high. It is just crazy. We live in a very small town and it is not anywhere near any major high ways so maybe that is one of the reasons it is so high. I did feel like crying. I just wonder how much it would have been if I had REALLY shopped? Luckily we have a stockpile at home of basics to work off of. If the price of meat keeps going up, we are going to become vegetarians. Bad thing about it, is that I did not even buy a lot of meat. It just was high. I looked at some chicken and did not buy any of it. Over $10.00 for a small pack of wings was way too high for me. Now is the best time to grow your own garden.
Bad thing is that our county is now at 12% unemployment. High prices at the grocery store will cause crime to go up here, I am afraid.

Anyone else getting sticker shock when they go grocery shopping????

New Survival Book On My Bookshelf

I received Handbook to Practical Disaster Preparedness for the Familyin the mail yesterday. That was fast shipping. But it was well worth it. I love it. It has everything in that I was hoping it would. Tons of information on radiation and how to seal your house. Tons of other information too. This is a pretty thick book! I really like how it is set up and it is very easy to understand. I even caught my hubby reading it last night and he is not a big reader. I am so glad I went ahead and bought this book - well worth the money and now my book shelf is complete.

List of Survival Forums

I have been wanting to make a list of survival and preparedness forums for a while now. I have finally gotten around to doing it. I think that it is a good idea to get into a forum with others so that you can ask questions, share ideas, and information about being prepared for anything.

That is all for now. You can Google and find some more great forums and message groups to talk to others who are also wanting to get prepared and become self-sufficient.

Is Your Garden Planned?

Really, I have been planning my garden all winter!! I had tried some tomatoes and green peppers last year just to see how they would grow here. They grew great and this spring I am planting everything. I have a food dehydrator to use and tons of other ideas. This is going to be a great year.
I hope that you all are planning on having a garden , no matter how small it is , it will be a huge help!! Having a garden will really help you and keep you from spending so much at the grocery store. I have also been saving money by having meatless meals 2-3 times a week. This is the year to jump in and have a garden. DO IT!!
