For food I have stocked up on wild rice and beans. It's the cheapest route I can think of. Fuel, I just fill the tank as often as I can. Might pick up a 10 gallon tank to extend the range of the car.

2. Plan/rehearse for an escape route to a safezone? Where?

Any where the poorer sections are not. The ghettos and the like. I would say any farm area. I don't know if this is possible, but moving to a remote place away from the park way and turnpike. I big worry over 30 years ago was that if something like this did happen, then people would come down off the parkway and ran sack the houses nearby. (Yes, people had ideas this was in the mix along time ago) The poorer sections are going to get hit the hardest.

3. Get a firearm and prepare to go rambo? (I am anti-gun and not trained at all, but this whole apocalypse thing might just make me do exactly that!)

I have decided not to do the fire arm thing. I don't believe in taking a life. It's a personal decision. Plus, you get a gun they know you have it and will most likely visit you.
We really might have very little to worry about if the dollar is quickly replaced, and I think it will be if it does fall.
I have also bought a tent and sleeping bags. Going to stock on a few other camping items.
