What Preps are you doing this week

[ezekiel]

Stock rotation - Moved all the shortest shelf life foodstuffs from the store cupboard to the pantry and busying myself filling the space with new tins/packets/jars. Also building my water supply back up as it was severely depleted when there was a problem with the taps recently.

Followed a couple links from other members (sorry, can't remember who but thanks for the suggestions) One lead to a solar battery charger from Maplins that I'm thinking of getting, the other lead to survivalcache.com with an interesting article on Amazon's Kindle E-reader. Got myself one and now I'm filling it up with survival books and how to manuals.

They are expensive but they are also the perfect solution for carrying around all the books and pdfs you will ever need. I dont have the kindle, i have a different make but it is very good

Just had food delivery so stock rotated which takes blooming ages! Added a few extras this month as last month we didn't (just after christmas and no money) OH moaned it seemed like a lot of shopping........but I blagged it and said it was normal amount, it just wasn't in bags like normal! Phew, got away with that.....
Stock shelves are looking full and I'm running out of space.....

Also went to GoOutdoors and bought 3 Regatta fleeces for 6.99 each. 2 for me and 1 for daughter. They will be brill for the spring and cooler summer evenings. (and an extra layer in the winter when we haven't got the heating on!!!!)

Me too - cupboards are bursting and getting to the point where it's difficult to get at stuff and I hate things looking messy . Got an understairs cupboard that runs the length of the lounge but you get to it from a door in the kitchen, so I'm going to put some shelves in there and have it as a big store cupboard

My P-38 can openers came. Woohoo!

Will have to try on a tin when I get home. A lot of tins these days have ring pulls unfortunately (boring!)

Had a little shopping trip today, MrsCC has won a load of gift vouchers for Sports Direct which stock quite a few Karrimor bits and pieces at cheap prices so picked up another fire steel, a bum bag for use as an EDC, and a couple of packs of hand warmers. Nipped into Boots and picked up a "Second Skin" spray then went to the pound shop and picked up some "Cooling Burn Gel" and a pack of 3 mini glowsticks to try out. All finished off with 2 Large Frys and a Cheeseburger

Good stuff CC!

I'm concentrating mostly on food this week, as you may have noticed... Also been reading my SAS survival handbook - essential reading.

Forgot to mention that the Pound Shop also had a couple of pallets of "Fray Bentos" Steak and Onion tinned pies (the round tins) with a BB of Dec 2012, the manufactures price which is printed on them was over £2 but obviously just a pound in the pound shop I only bought a couple to put away but might go back later in the week for some more
