Dollar Tree Challenge- 72 Hour Survival Kit.
If you're wondering, "What should I put in a 72 hour kit?" or "What do I need in an emergency kit?" This video might help.
If you put together a kit like this, I always recommend you rotate and replace things like the food and medications every year or so to keep things from getting wasted or going bad. There are so many types of disasters and emergencies: wildfires, floods, hurricanes, earthquakes, tornadoes, and even just bad storms . In many cases, a 72-hour kit could mean the difference between life and death. After a major disaster or emergency, it could take up to three days for emergency responders to reach some areas. Consider a 72-hour kit that you could live on for 7-10 days if needed. In such a case, if you live in a disaster-prone area, a 72-hour kit is the minimum you should have available. Plan your 72-hour kit according to your family’s size. With a kit like this, you can be prepared on a budget, and ready for anything from power outages to SHTF.

3 thoughts: 1. Would you mind sharing your total cost for that kit? 2. A simple paper notebook and pencil can count as communication (if you had to grab your kit and go, you could leave a note behind for your loved ones to let them know where you are going, etc.). 3. I would also throw in a deck of cards just to have something to do.

I was homeless in TX for nearly three years living in a tent. I ate a lot from DT. I'd add gallon and quart freezer bags for storage of small things and opened packets. Mashed potatoes- put some in a bowl and add little bits of heated water until you get the consistency you want. As time goes on, one can save for a sterno stove (I still have mine) or a camping stove (which made my life vastly different.). Pancake mix labeled just add water, again eyeball the amount and enough water to suit, and have a pancake for breakfast. Syrup doesn't need refrigeration. I had a pour over melitta ($5 at heb grocery store) and I picked up bags of flavored coffees to break up monotony. packets of hot chocolate. I'd add books to read, for kids, coloring books and crayons. Let kids make their own activity boxes. Things can be added as time and money allow. I'm no longer homeless and have an RV. I also have a portable solar power station and just got a Roadpro roaster that's 12volt. Learn to make a solar oven and use it to save on fuel. Kids will love that too. Figure out what to do with waste and trash ahead of time. You did put together a very nice kit. My dollar tree has battery operated switch lights- get them for the bathroom, bedrooms- they're a treat. The 150 lumen work light is very nice to have- attach it to your frig on the outside. You can't have too much light.

True story: when we first started lockdown in 2020, toilet paper was gone from the shelves. I work in a pharmacy and a mom and daughter came in for a prescription. Mom sent daughter to get some pads. She brought back 2 packages. Mom told her to put them back because she didn’t like the brand. The daughter said their usual brand was out. Mom said ok, but just get one. I usually don’t get involved in these conversations but I had to that day. I just quietly mentioned that the shelves of feminine hygiene products were full a few hours before they came. I reminded them that you couldn’t get toilet paper at the moment. And I was surprised it had taken so long for the women to remember tampons and pads. No surprise, mom sent daughter back for another package!

I have a hot tip for you. Never mind your alcohol food heaters. CANDLES! If you can find 24-hour candles, all the better. I was stuck indoors for 2 weeks, no heat, lights or electricity after an ice storm knocked down most of the wiring in the city. I loaded up on 24-hour tall candles and found that I could stick 3 of them together on a bit of hot wax in a saucer, placed in the bottom of a fold-up wire basket. I could balance my enamel cookpot on top of the wire basket and boil water with it. Eventually, I was shopping in the little market store downstairs each day for ingredients to make fresh Cantonese style shrimps, chicken and pork. I boiled water to fill the thermos of the old man across the hall; and I refllled emptied plastic water bottles with warm water, and tucked them under a blanket for my cat to sit on warm and cosy. Candles for cooking, it's just like a gas stove, the food is favnulous, and you have a LIGHT source at the same time.

I found the bags is pre-made refried beans today, I've not had them but many people give the m them a decent review, high protien and enough for 2 meals in my opinion, and it's a decent meal with the packs of ready made Spanish rice. Overall, I'm really impressed. Great job. Please folks, if you've not started a pantry even a few extra cans with your shopping trips can start getting you a stock. And it's not just "apocolyptic" stuff. Example, we have 10 people in our home and 4 are young children, we have been snowed in, completely for 7-9 days at a time the last 2 winters.

I'm glad you included heat and a fire kit. So many people live in all-electric apartments or homes. After the great Texas blizzard, I made power out kits for two friends who live in all electric apartments. They are not campers so they cannot rely gear that they have tucked away like campers and preppers do. I made them alcohol stoves and included a bottle of alcohol, and I gave them floating oil lamps with a bottle of vegetable oil so that they would be able to have light. (Back in the 70s we called these un-candles.) Please include the price tag you paid for this kit. The problem with shopping at Dollar tree is that those dollars add up very quickly, and it's very easy to overspend. People need to be reminded that they can budget for these things, make a shopping list, buy a few things every payday, and build it over time. The folks living from paycheck to paycheck don't have the additional cash to drop on something like this, making it seem out of reach in which case they don't buy any of it. A follow-up to this would be great showing them to list these items, even having them check off what they already own. And since this is being used as a shelter-in-place kit, you don't need redundancy. Most folks have duct tape, have paper plates, tools, flashlights, candles, etc. By being able to check those items off the list it drops the price of this kit completely.

@MaggieValera Ай бұрын

Also, a great thing to have in an emergency is a fondue pot. If it's an old school one you can flip it over and put one of those big liquid heat cans underneath, or better yet an alcohol burner or a buddy burner (tuna can filled with coiled corrugated cardboard then filled with wax).

@twistedv3r1ta5 Ай бұрын

@MeditativeManifesting Ай бұрын

So it looks like all together this would have been around $150.00 for everything and that's a lot of money to put down at once for a lot of people. So I would just like to say that you can buy these things in small batches until you have a complete kit, and I would recommend using a bucket (from hardware store) for storage as that can be used to port water or as a makeshift toilet. And I would remind everyone to also add a pair of socks and underwear in case you get wet. ✌

Petroleum jelly has more uses than a fire starter. Use it on bruises to clear them up faster; use instead of lip balm and skin softener. It's also good for hemorrhoids, if you don't have Preparation-H about. It's good for cracked feet and rough elbows and also for preventing diaper rash. You can also heat food up with tea light candles. Put your cooking setup in the kitchen sink, if you need to keep it away from kids or pets. Don't store your head-light or flashlights, long term, with the batteries inside, as they will corrode. Jon in rural BC, Canada

You can get more heat using votives plus it's a lot cheaper. Turn a metal pan upside down, lifted up about an inch. I set 2 bricks (about 8-10 inches apart) on a big floor tile. Then place the upside down metal pan on the 2 bricks. Place 4-6 lighted votive candles under the metal pan. The bricks will lift the pan high enough for airspace so the candles will burn well. BE CAREFUL because it'll get HOT fast. This setup will help heat a small room by a few degrees. My power went out a few years ago for 4+ days during a massive snow storm.. Temps were in the teens. This setup kept me from literally freezing to death. I kept my coffee pot filled with water on it so I could make hot tea. Depending on how many candles you use will determine how fast you can heat up food (either in cans or in another pan) and how much heat it'll throw out. If you have a huge metal cooking pot, you can add more votive candles. I ALWAYS buy votives in bulk so I have a lot on hand. Walmart used to sell 100 for $4 but haven't had them in stock for over a year. I've found good deals on TEMU. Just make sure you buy the 4-6 hour votive candles. Not worth bothering with the standard 2 hour ones.

Studies on starvation revealed that starving humans will eat anything including nonfood items just to relieve the pain of emptiness in their stomachs. An interesting thing they discovered is that a variety of flavor is important - even if you're not fond of a flavor in your prosperity diet. Lack of flavor variation causes 'appetite fatigue" and it can make you not want eat. So spice it up even if you add beef bullion to oatmeal and make a 'beef patty'.

There’s another DT about the same distance away just a different direction and it’s always stocked, I prefer the first one as there is road construction to get to the 2nd one, but also it’s a very car dependent area, it’s in a huge shopping center, and no residences that are really walkable. So I guess I will battle the road work, it just takes 2-3 times longer to get to even though it’s about the same distance.

Plastic sheeting and Duct Tape isn't going to stop radiation, but can be used for so many other things. This isn't going to get you through nuclear war, but it can help in more minor situations or just a getting from A to B situation in relative comfort or just having no water or power for a couple of days after a storm. In my lifetime in the UK, we've experienced no power intermittently for some considerable time thanks to miners' strikes (don't blame them, though), being snowed in with no milk deliveries (daily doorstep deliveries back then), a weekend without running water because of multiple bursts to the mains on the main road and I've watched a couple trying to keep the roof on stables (with horses inside) with rope during a storm. I've also survived on very little food for three days and wish I knew back then what I know now and had had a proper financial and "life skills" education.

I would add condoms (for water and tourniquets) zipties, superglue in place of liquid skin so you have more options. At least 2 magnifying glasses as a fire source. I would get larger bottles of hand sanitizer as it works as a fire source same with crayons each one burns for about 15 minutes. Jute twine for tying and for wicking. In the cleaning section of my dollar tree they've been carrying tube's of bleach tablets in a 10pk which 1 tab will clean up to 3gals of water and when added to a spray bottle can be used for defense. Sewing supplies for mending or quick stitches. I wouldn't worry to much about hygiene stuff as that takes valuable room and is a temporary luxury and could have perfume that could be detected if you're trying to hide or escape an area. I would add some of the 8pk emergency candles that could be melted down and added to pine shavings ( aka hamster bedding) to make 18hr candles which also act as a source of heat. A honing stone to sharpen your knife. 9v batteries and steel wool to make instant fires. Most dollar trees have solar stake lights which would be good for when you run out of batteries. If you add peroxide to your bleach it can cause an explosion that could be life-saving. Add baking soda because when added to super glue it gets really hot then creates a very strong plastic/acrylic which can be used for quick repairs. Tinfoil can be tapped together to make an improvised emergency blanket or get several mylar balloons. ⌛️

This was a perfect rundown to remind and guide me/someone to get ready for hurricane season, which officially started last week on 6/1. The only thing I would suggest additionally is to put in 3 days worth of any maintenance medications you need, in case you can’t get to your pharmacy. Actually, based on going through 8 hurricanes now (including Andrew, Katrina, Rita and the 2 in 2020 back to back here in Louisiana) if there is a way to put a whole week’s worth of your scripts up in your kit, it’s not a bad idea. Pharmacies work very hard to get up & running after storms, but that doesn’t mean that power is available and roads are passable. There is enough stress and struggle without running out of your maintenance meds.

One thing I love about the instant breakfast shakes is they can be a meal replacement in themselves. In a real TSHTF scenario you simply might need to be hidden and concealed. On the flip side you might want to stay as mobile as possible but still stay safe. These shakes allow you to do both. As you’ve often heard it’s sometimes dangerous to stay in one location too long. You need to be as mobile as possible but still be stealthy. And in a pinch so long as you can keep them clean you can always reuse them for extra water storage. Reuse them as containers with a life straw or Sawyer products and you will have the potential of never running out of portable water. That’s the very first thing that will kill you regardless of your status in life (dehydration). How about doing a video about how you can better manage to keep your preps themselves safe?

Fyi: gallon water can be cheaper in a regular grocery store if you buy the store brand. And you can reuse the cans of soup by using them as candle holders. Just punch some holes on the sides to let some light out and place a candle in the middle. Not really kid or pet friendly so be careful. For cooking, you can also use a muffin pan, tea candles and a cooling rack. $1tree's working light gives off lots of light. The little silver light that you push to turn on, is ok. I place both in areas where I can turn on in the house when the power goes out. Works great for emergencies.

Either mine has really been worn over the past few years or the pointy factor has changed. But it's still a good deal.
