As an American we are united with our fellow preppers across the pond.

Hey dude, John here in Bulgaria. Great sound advice. People have different reasons at to why they prep. I prep because a few years ago, i had no work and no money, I lived of bread for 4 weeks and i vowed to always have food in the pantry, so now when i have a few extra Lev, i buy food.

I’m a Texan that has been prepping for years. I used to travel to the UK quite often and I have several friends I still stay in contact with. Not one of them think they should prep. It boggles my mind. This warms my heart to see. Blessings.

May I suggest having a pressure canner and or water bath canner. I buy tons of meat when it’s on sale and I can it up. I can beef, pork, chicken, sausage, bacon, ribs, beans, soups, meals, etc… I also make tons of ghee. Plus, if you keep tons of stuff it the freezer and the grid goes down, all you need is a canner, jars, and propane cooker. You won’t lose that stuff.

I’m in the UK and I’ve been prepping for 4 years. I’ve been unemployed and to me it makes sense to have extra of everything in case of unemployment, you can’t get out for some reason and many other reasons. When panic buying happened, I didn’t have to worry about anything as I was well stocked. You only have to buy a few items extra of what you normally buy and it soon builds up. I started with tins and packets. I’d buy an extra large toilet roll pack once a month. Toiletries, batteries, candles, matches, washing powder/liquid and cleaning products. I’ve got a couple of 10kg buckets for rice and pasta. Only buy what you eat. Don’t forget seasonings, stock cubes and beans pulses for thickening up soups and high in protein and fat. Honey is good and keeps forever. Good for sweetening things and good the immune system. I’ve also stocked up on sweets, chocolates and crisp. I have basic medical supplies in the first aid box which is updated regularly - plasters, gauze, antiseptic, antihistamines, bandages and saline spray. I also make sure I have vinegar and baking powder as these can be used in the house for different things in the house and are cheap. Dried fruit keeps a long time as well as tin. Keep your freezers well stocked too. Don’t forget cereals and porridge. If you have pets, don’t forget to stock up on food for them too.

I was in the vunerable group during the "medical emergency", didn't go out at all for months. Had my food preps, used them, found a few holes in things that got used more than others. Just used the lock down as a real world exercise. All "holes" now sorted. Been prepping for over 20 years, always something new to learn, new ways, new skills. Have subbed.

Great to see people prepping worldwide

Finally some decent uk prepping 💪

Hello, from central Florida USA! Great 👍 video. Glad to see others around the world preparing. Food is just a part of preparing. Store what you eat. Eat what you store. First in, first out.

Hi. Great to see a UK prepper with a sensible attitude. I've been prepping food and other items intentionally for me and mine since around 2021 October time.

Don't forget to be mindful of mice! They can happily eat through your cardboard AND plastic layers around your cereal! (Speaking from experience here!)

Greetings from Cheshire. I’m very pleased to see another UK prepper on YT. Great content, keep posting, you have a new subscriber. 👍💯 I have been on the “prepper” mindset since 2016 due to fear of job loss in my household, so far we have been ok, but things can change overnight. Having a buffer while you gather you thoughts and get a plan in action is great for our peace of mind. Have a great weekend, peace and love to all 🙂❤

😮 tins/canned food 🥫 heat process... Whuuut?!? Wow! I learned something!

Thats me , under the stairs 😂 bags of tins and water , wish i had more room. I have 3 kids so like to be stocked up you never know whats going to happen ❤

You could move your tea bags into glass jars with a screw-top lid. That would keep them sealed up tight and you could buy in bulk and swipe from storage to move some into your regular kitchen. Same for pancake mix, sugars, etc. Also, for a true emergency, you might want to stock up on charcoal briquettes or even better, an eco stove that burns several types of fuel. I have one called an Eco-Zoom, I believe, that also burns small twigs if you don't have the fuel pellets. Just an idea. Oh! water filters too!

Great channel, great sensible advice. New subscriber, looking forward to checking out rest of your videos 👍🏻

I have just started prepping. Thanks for the presentation ❤

Living out in country and always prep through winter in case get snowed in, more important than ever now to prep, saved me money as well as prices go up all the time.

Great video! Atlanta, GA USA.

What we do when we use anything from our Prepper store is we write down on a chalk board what we've used and the next time we do a supermarket run, we buy double - thus replacing what we've used and adding to our supplies. Great first video. Looking forward to more.

The thing is about dates on foodstuffs, is that the dates are mostly "best before" dates, which aren't the same as "use by" dates. I have seen too many people throw away perfectly good food just because it had passed its best before date, while it was still edible!

Brilliant gentle introduction to prepping. Thank You !

Hello from Tennessee!! Your pantry looks great!!

New subscriber here also a fellow prepper.. Food storage is important, a little each week soon adds up.. Its having the room to store it that I struggle with 😂..

You really seem like a lovely guy! Everything you have is what I've been getting myself and its nice to see more UK Preppers. You have gotten a sub from me bud!

Oh for any new preppers here put the bbd on the front of the tin/box with a sharpie then you can see the date at a glance

Just found your channel. Great to have another sensible UK prepper. I'm in the UK. Very sound advice and hope you start making more videos. Cheers.

I'm in Ireland and prepping is not common. I always had extra food anyway but with the viruus on its way I really stocked up and when everyone was going nuts looking for toilet roll, calpol etc I was at home with my children. School was closed and we never went anywhere for 2 months. My husband would pick up bread, fruit and veg on way home from work but since then I've become more focused, having lots of multiples, vacuum sealing etc. I'm getting more prepared with whatever will happen. Bought a kelly kettle as a back up and want to invest in solar generator very soon!! Putting in a big garden this year and getting a big tunnel installed at the end of the month 😊

I'm a Prepper, been one most of my adult life, I start Birthdays Christmas gifts as soon as one is over plan for the next. Toilet paper has never been an issue even during lockdown I helped a few elderly couples when they couldn't get any. Store what you eat though, unless you buy things to barter along the way. Great points you make ❤

Been prepping for year but still like watching videos aimed at new preppers. We can all learn more everyday. Your point about comfort items such as alcohol, sweets etc is very important, we will need these items even more under stress. Looking for to more content. Thank you. Ps, a bit envious of your storage area.

New sub from the netherlands, awesome video! Good to see more european preppers😊

another great video look forward to watching more from you

So glad you popped up on my recommended. With the fall out from the sky news piece done on Northman. Ive spend a few days on various platforms trying to explain to people why we prep ect and this first video is perfect good British channel

Can you do a video of the kind of stuff you add to the boxes behind you? The ones you said are for packing into the car if that is what you need to do

Storing dried orange powder is a great idea for making drinks also has a long shelf life.

Refreshing Approach well done Sir.

Great vid mate, like & subscribed. Re. your point about not wasting money, you could say that with soaring food prices, you save money as everything you eat from those ''old'' preps cost less when you bought it...if you replace it now and don't eat it for 2 years again the same is the case, it's most likely going to be more expensive in 2 years.

If I should wait until I need the food before I buy it, it could cost me a lot more later. That's just one reason why I prep.

New to prepping but really helpful mate !

Great vid subbed ☮️👍🏾

Good Video, Glad to see others in the UK with this mindset. Subscribed, Looking forward to seeing more 👍🏻

Hi Adam, I have talked to other people who think I am crazy when I tell them about being prepared, so now I don`t even mention it ! I would not say I am a big prepper, but I like to think I have got what I think are my main items and preps, that put my mind at rest. But there`s always room for more! I live in North Wales, and in the past couple of years we have had some major storms! There were areas across Wales that had no power, and for some that lasted nearly 2 weeks! Also in the recent cold spell we had the other week, there was another area in Wales that had no running water due to the mains pipe freezing and Bursting! On top of that I recently had a 12 hour power cut! So if there is any cause or reasoning for people to make some basic preps, there`s three reasons! It doesn't take a major event to catch us out, just a bit of snow and there`s no loo roll to be had! lol. Just subscribed mate. Keep up the good work. Shaun.

Tip for noodles. Go to an Asian food store and head to the noodle section. Thank me later 👌

A healthy stash there mate, good to see another drinker, its something that seems to get overlooked a lot. For me, if you use it then store it. Cheers for the vid mate.

New channel, great to see. Looking forward to more.

Great video just watched it today very interesting 😊😎👍🏻

Nice little set up that mate

Great video, Keep up the great work

Excellent vlog fella. Great advice.

You can buy tinned fruit in own juice!! Pineapple, peach, pears, fruit cocktail is what I buy

Please do more of these videos

I prep because I’ll never forget having to quew up for 2 hours to buy 1 potato for the family in 1945 Berlin

Tasty. Your stocks are good too :)

Thank you for the upload I really enjoyed it! Hello mate I was just thinking. If you had a bit of down pipe you could cut an opening at the bottom for grabbing tins out (like vending machine). When you pull a tin out the next one hits the bottom. Replenish at the top of the pipe. A stack of whatever tinned food you want would go right to the opening of the pipe at the top. You place the freshest tins you’ve just bought at the top and the older tins fall to the bottom as you get a tin out to eat. It will replenish itself.

Great start to the Channel.. .looing forward to more content from you!

Good video

A thermal cooking is great for reducing fuel use. I'm using an ecopot to make stews etc. It's portable too.

I don't have the money to stock like you. I'm a senior on a pension. Nor do I have a large space to store. You should be OK for a long time.

Damn he looks good. 😂😂😂😂

I write the date on top of tins with a sharpie so it's easier to see as I have bad eyesight .Where did you get your dehydrated vegetables from please

Wow

Nice..Preppers all around the world unite! Joke aside, the world is crazy right now and if you are NOT doing some kind of prepping, you will be very sorry.

SIMPLES THE PREPPERS WILL BE JACKED 1ST LOL POINTLESS
