Thanks for this. I have used some of these companies in the past and I like them also. One thing is to keep looking and comparing pricing. The internet is great but don't discount yard sales and flea markets. Not everyone realizes the 'gold' they inherited from Aunt Sally, to them it looks like an old heavy (cast iron) pot. I got a lot of dried food from the local food bank after y2k. People were getting rid of it and the owner did not know what to do with it because most families are not as large as mine. (Its food people and it was dried at that!) Their loss and my family's gain. :)

This is our "lifestyle"...we did not know we were "preppers" until recently! LOL We have always tried to live as off grid as we can and of course, sometimes that means doing things the hard way...or so our kids thought! But, they now know that our foods do not always come in boxes off a shelf at some store....and it does take work and thinking to be able to do for one's self...we have trained our sons for self sufficiency..and now they can live this life if they choose to. Hope this helps someone else...

> Print this list for future reference at your fingertips and order accordingly. Always verify availability BEFORE you place your order and shipping times. Prices fluctuate greatly with commodities and demand. And although all of these sources have many of the same type items, price shop before you buy (especially shipping costs!). There are literally thousands of places and sources on the internet, these are just some of the ones we have used or still do that we would vouch for. Shop locally if possible. Need a source for something not found here? Ask me! We have been prepping for almost 20 years and have vast knowledge for many products and where to locate them. And don't forget to co-op with friends and neighbors to be able to purchase in bulk, to save $$$ off the products as well as shipping. Ask for "bulk pricing" lists and you will see the considerable savings. Most offer free catalogs if asked.
