I've been stocking food and supplies since mid june throwing $150 per week into my stash, I live in the pacific northwest which is a major earthquake zone.
Now just imagine if the quake hits, even if the stores are open think of how huge the line ups would be...debit and cc systems would be down so cash only, people would be fighting over this and that...it would be very ugly.

Because of my diligent forsite I now have enough GOOD food to feed my family for atleast 4 months...no rations GOOD meals.
I also bought a 100w solar array that charges a deep cycle marine battery for lighting, portable dvd player, cordless drills, charging batteries, cell phones, my sons PSP...anything that needs a recharge comes from the sun!

Stocked propane and burners, 400 pc firstaid kit, hygiene supplies...plenty of ammo, tabbaco, vodka, tackle.
patch kit and pump for the bikes...compass, maps, camping gear.

I have spent a fair amount of time and money on my cache but I live in an earthquake zone and not taking any chances. And the more I think about it...its still not enough.

But at least I am ahead of the game. Everyone should be some what prepared...its your family after all.

Costco is a good place for flats of canned goods...and yes they look at you kinda funny rolling out of there like your expecting the second coming...whatever!

Good luck!
