2. I buy big cans of food at Costco and Sam's Club dated 2010 and beyond.
3. I installed a Solar Hot Water heater for additional water storage as well and saving on the SRP/APS rates that have increased.
4. I have 6 1- Gal gas cans in case of shortage.
5. I have a 5000W generator . Used it 2 weeks ago when the lights went out.
6. I have plans to leave town if things get really bad.
7. I have a book called Edible and healing plants of the SW. Nature has
food and healing products free for the picking.
FOOD AND WATER. Get stocked up now before the prices rise.
Educate others on how to prepare for change. Depend on yourself .
God Bless to all your Arizonians....

Yes, mama and I have been stockpiling also. Lots of dried, canned and packaged foods with long expiration dates, lots of water, seeds for a garden (if it comes to that) and I paid off my truck so that it's mine. I've seen other places on this forum talking about getting out of "survival mode". I say it's just prudent to be safe and prepared. Hell, the LDS church has been doing it for years during peace time, there's no shame in that. My Grandad used to tell me to "Prepare for war in times of peace". He should know, he was born in 1912 and lived up until last year. He lived through all the difficult times of the last century (the great depression included). Being prepared is not about not having a positive attitude, it's about being smart.
