I live in NY and I have been preparing for awhile with meds, water, canned vegetables,tuna, cereal's,flour,honey sugar , pasta,yeast, peanut butter,jelly, batteries, toiletries and my cats food and litter. Don't forget first aid kits for humans and your animals. I was taught this since I was kid to always be prepared for anything!! Be safe and be well everyone.
@@OK-jn4wn It's hard to grow beans to maturity in quantity indoors. Lettuce, spinach, and other small-space veggies still provide nutrition, fiber and fresh flavors that can make that big bag of beans easier to deal with when you're eating on it every day.
I still have my winter veggies (turnip greens, radish, cabbage, mustard) still going and semi insulated with leaves (layering compost too on it for hot bed method). We will be harvesting (and preserving them) till December (we already had couple frost). Cold weather actually sweeten the greens. Will be planting garlic bulbs soon for next year. We also harvest wild weeds in the spring. And more than enuff foods to overwinter (Freezer is full too).
If by terrible you mean a national day of facing the reality of what we have been living under...a global plague and national division, I certainly agree with you. I've lost 12 friends to Covid. I don't have one more family member or friend to lose to this wicked disease and those who don't take it seriously. We must unite in this war like we did when called to action against the Nazis! Conspiracy theories and deliberate political divisions don't serve us well. They are of Satan. Rebuke it.
Instead of buying fast food for a meal go purchase a extra bag of rice and a case of water. Five dollars at Dollar Tree makes a difference when stockpiling
I go to the dollar store to stock up on name brand toothpaste that's there, toothbrushes, soap, etc. At the grocery store I go to clearance racks and get discounted meat. It's doable. Stock up on spices, herbs, salt, cheap dressings that can jazz up your food. Research farming coops and if you're adventurous, you can dumpster dive. If you have pets, it may be cheaper to make their food with stuff like yams, mixed vegetables, brown rice, chicken, ground meat, etc.
Biden was asked the same question after this came up. He said there will be no "national lockdown". It would be determined by area. He also said stores that sell food would remain open regardless. There is no need to do a major stock up. The biggest problem the last time we had a surge was people hording. It's already happening again. I live in a small rural community and we had people coming from the big city in the next state to our little town trying to clear our stores out of TP, kleenex, disinfectant spray, rubbing alcohol & bread. Our local market owner showed them the door.. with their loaded carts left behind. I've always kept enough food to last a month for my family and rotate those goods - oldest out to use & replaced in each shopping trip. No matter what you're calling it - this is still panic buying. I also have a container garden growing in totes I picked up used at yard sales over the last few years that gives me the produce I need. I have them in a small greenhouse that has a vent from my house to the greenhouse to keep it warm.
It’s good to be self sufficient and prepared for anything. Those that horde are the same ones that over indulge before the pandemic. Too many are selfish.
I’m not trying to start a political debate; however Biden flip-flops like a caught fish. He originally said there would be a 4 to 6 week lockdown. And while some stores will remain open, they would be severely limited in hours. Again this is what he said... like the old adage “you know a politician is lying when he opens his mouth”.
@@foodlifefamily6140 It is not about being selfish, it about a family survival. People are prepairing for what is starting to happen around thanksgiving and this weekend. If you are watching Fox, CNN MSN and AP etc etc and being on face book and twitter, you probably did not get the notice since they blocked the real truthful news.
@@foodlifefamily6140 Horde? If you live in the PNW you should have enough to last you and yours at a minimum of three months. An Air Force Colonel assigned to FEMA told me it would take three months to establish any a semblance of rescue in the event of the 9.0 Cascadia earthquake. Being prepared isn’t “hoarding”.
Even without a national lockdown start preparing for new times ahead. We have to recover. Once Dec 21 comes millions will be out of income and when the stimulus checks are sent out prices will spike.
I don't think we need a lock down, well not exactly/we need a PLAN. MOST people don't need to lose their jobs/income/hours don't need to be cut. More info, and I know its A LOT, but a good plan/a plan that goes indepth/fixes a problem/helps allot,requires depth/allot of pieces have to go into it. Also allot of this answers/addresses, A LOT of other questions/concerns as well. I honestly don't see anything wrong with lock downs. Meaning EVERYTHING/MOST things are DIGITAL, NOW DAYS ANYWAY, and what TRULY isn't, can be deamed essential, meaning ANYONE that works with a physical product, a computer doesn't count, UNLESS, your maintaining servers HARDWARE/if you can remote access it, that doesn't count, also Maintaining internet, also the electric companies, field workers/maintenance workers, ARE ESSENTIAL, the desk workers are not essential/don't need to leave their homes/they can use VOIP/the internet/email/portals/Zoom/some other service like SKYPE, JUST LIKE ALL OF THE OTHER, AT HOME WORKERS, other essential workers, Fedex,UPS,USPS, also if you work in a warehouse,grocery store, TO PREPARE, groceries/other products, for delivery/for doordash/instacart/stock shelves/unload trucks, if your an RN,LPN,CNA,DR,surgeon, Ambulance driver, police officer, if you need to be at a vet, to receive dogs/cats/animals, also CERTAIN medical procedures/care, is permitted, WITH the RIGHT PPE, such as respirators/hazmat suits. Also SOME garage door/door services are essential, such as medical garage doors. Anyway a lock down, MEANS NOTHING/NOTHINGS changed, other than HOW WE DO BUSINESS, WHICH IS A LOT MORE EFFICIENT, ANYWAY, meaning less gas is being used in vehicles, less TIME IS BEING WASTED, while driving to a location, the business, is still happening though, A LOT of the money lost, in the oil fields, can be transferred over to the renewable resources field, such as solar panels,wind turbines,water mills, batteries and so on, the way the worlds going anyway/BP, sees it/has invested allot into renewable energy. You don't NEED to leave your house to work, unless you work with a physical product. Also your house most likely has more, than anywhere else anyway, meaning I have, computers/gaming consoles,tvs/monitors,blurays,internet/streaming services, such as Netflix,Hulu,Hbo,starz,books, pdfs and physical books, and so on, I have workout equipment, hair clippers. I really have, no need, to leave my house, doordash/walmart/fedex/UPS/USPS/Amazon, deliver, what ever I need, and I also keep things stored, as well, JUST IN CASE. Honestly to go out, is A LOT MORE, inconvenient, than staying home. Other concerns/things, people have asked/my answers, to other issues, people have talked about: I would prefer kids to be able to live a long life/SOME sacrifices are needed. Also Vitamin D supplements is an option. I have air purifiers/filters in my house/the air in my house, is definitely allot cleaner, than whats outside. I also have a treadmill/a full gym,but work out bands are an option, mine go up to 1000pounds/resistance. I'd prefer lives to be saved/a few sacrifices are worth it, to be honest. Honestly nothings wrong with kids going outside, in their back yards, also ZOOM/Skype,Google DUO,Facetime and so on, is available for friends and family, ALSO, if you get your family to quarantine, for 20 to 30 days/not go out, for that period of time, they can stay with you or vice verse, meaning contact doesn't have to stop, if all rules are being met/your not exposed. Also MOST kids are involved/doing virtual learning, right now/some were doing this, before any of this, and as long as the rest, of that family is doing the same/working from home, their safe as well. Granted, SOME cases of Covid are asymptomtaic/SOME people can have covid and never show any signs, but at the same time, 30 to 40days SHOULD be long enough, not to worrie. Also, regulations SHOULD be made, with in business, to prevent job loss/SHOW/Inlighten, companies/show them how business is done, in todays day and time/show them how the digital world works. If your an essential worker/someone that works in a warehouse/grocery store/stocker/unloading trucks/fills orders/ANY of the jobs/types of jobs that I mentioned, than, YOU SHOULDN'T LOOSE YOUR JOB, ANYWAY. Also SOME jobs/services AREN'T black and white, MEANING, SOME JOBS, MAY be essential, so an appealing process/through court/Zoom, SHOULD be available, to people, with no cost, to the person applying for it. If you work in a restaurant/fast food, than, MAYBE one day, the food/bar industry will bounce back/after the Pandemic, SOME people are still using Uber Eats, I'M NOT, but SOME people are. Also Salons/Barbershops, is ANOTHER industry, that is NOT essential right now. Also entertainers/entertainment/big gathering and so on, are NOT essential. You could also check out door dash/Instacart, IF your in the food/restaurant industry. For these type workers, waiting for stimulus, is about all you can do, or like i said switch to door dash, or something like that/look at whats viable RIGHT NOW. This is another reply/answer/ other parts to the solution/problem: definitely the biggest problem, and thats where the military needs to step up/step in. Also it is really easy to transfer any business over to complete digital, atleast when it comes to the payments/transactions/deliverie, parts of the business. Parts of the business, MAY not be digital though/ certain parts, MAY, can't be digital, such as the parts of the business, that work with a physical product, those are essential workers, grocery stores, shouldn't be open, to the public, but their workers are definitely essential, to unload trucks,stock shelves, prepare orders, for pick up, either by customers, that have to sit in their car, with the trunk open, or doordash/instacart drivers/deliveries or to a spot/person/bicycle. To do this for SOME people, kiosks, installed outside walmart, so people can put their orders in, and they would be cleaned, periodically as well and sanitizer dispensers would be available as well. Also this is what servers/VOIP/E-mail/portals/websites/apps/Skype or zoom and so on,are for/these tools allow ANYONE to work remotely. Unless your business is already broken/your using paper/envelopes/stamps/Ink/printers/huge filing cabinets/paper calenders,huge adding machines/have no online presents/website/server. In this case, you will SOON turn into Sears,Kmart,ToysRUs,Sports Authority,Hifi Buy,Circuit City, AND SOON GameStop. We now have the ability to pay our bills through apps/setup auto pay. We bank through apps, we can even deposit checks through apps, but most things are direct deposited, now days anyway, and if you use a check, MOST OF THE TIME, its handed back to you, after your transaction, and is baisicly ran as a debit/the money is taken out of your account, at the time of purchase/right away. Anyway things are done A LOT MORE EFFICIENT, NOW DAYS. The hardest part, is definitely going to be, the part, where the government, NEEDS, to enforce all of this and issue fines and FUTURE jail time, but at the moment, issue the digital fines and escort them back to their homes. Court now days, is also done through zoom/digitally. Anyway ALL of this is definitely doable, and the Military/government needs to help the people, that cant take care of them selves/that don't have access to water/ food to eat/a place to live, also do this safely as well/with the proper PPE gear on, gas masks, with the right filters/the virus protecting filters. This would definitely help A LOT. Also this is ONE thing, I didn't mention, I believe in rights/everyone should be able to choose, UNLESS, someone is being hurt, other than the person that chose to do something. I think spreading covid/infected people/potentially killing old people/technically any aged person, is not right/as long as your not hurting anyone, than, I believe that people have the right, to do, what ever they want. Also another issue, thats been brought up A LOT: Mental health is an issue, but like I've also stated, to quarantine/be safe, you don't have to isolate AND DEFINITELY NOT FOREVER, meaning, you can be with people, as long as either, you were together, since the beginning, OR two, both people isolate them selves for 30 to 40 days. You still have skype/zoom/entertainment/the ability to workout from home, ALSO a back yard or like me, allot of property to walk on/look around/enjoy/you can still go outside, I have fences and gates, so I don't have to worrie about people walking up/driving up on me, but ALLOT can be done from home. The issues with suicide/abuse and so on, WERE MOST LIKELY ALREADY an issue with these people, BEFORE, ANY OF THIS, this just probably brought it out MORE/showed the issues in their relationships/minds, that were there, before any of this, meaning, being around a person for long periods of time/not having alone time, CAN/COULD cause problems, I say to that, EVERYONE, needs a place, where they can go and relax/unwind/decompress. I have a few places like that, my man cave/gaming area, my projector room, where I can game or watch movies, my gym, I also have my office, and thats where I work. My wife has her office and her arts and crafts room and a lady cave/where she can game, watch movies and decompress. Mental health is a problem, but its a separate problem/an existing problem, IN MOST CASES. Zoom/skype/Google DUO/facetime, CAN/COULD definitely be used to talk to a therapist, it might not be ideal, but it CAN definitely help. Also if abuse is the issue, MAKE A PLAN/contact authorities discreetly/I know that can be a hard/a tricky situation. I'm not saying mental health isn't real, but MOST LIKELY, it was already an issue BEFORE covid, anxiety or what ever it might be. Therapy/medication OR a mental health facility, MAY be whats needed, for that.
@@CascadiaDispatch 😂 I saw your shelf and thought “WOW! We have almost all of that in our house. 😂 and more than a few other things... pirate ships, more castles... 😆
Its sad that people can't be responsible and take the necessary precautions on their own, that the government would have to step in. I can't believe that the most advanced country in the world (us), had the absolute worst handle on this virus.
I wasn't going to comment at all, but your comment warrants one. You are asking for communist dictator north Korea treatment. I didn't go to two countries and be involved in two wars so you can give away your freedom. Even the blue state lockdowns are unconstitutional, and they are collapsing because of them. Media not telling it all as always. Unemployment is high, but really it's low in red states and astronomical in blue states. Im still busy as ever, went to several stores yesterday, all well stocked as they always have been, no mask either. Do you live in a blue state?
@@ridgerunner106 I think you completely missed the point of my comment.. if people cared about their fellow americans and wore a mask and practiced social distancing we wouldn't be in this position.
@@amirchar Well, it's pretty obvious how they feel. Government should not step out of bounds. What if the govt mandates a vaccine? You'll go for that too? Even though there is no recourse if it is tainted, makes you sick, has fungus in it? Compliance to the govt is opening some bad doors, that you will wish were still closed. If the govt is do afraid, they, yes they, should stay locked down. As for me, I will continue to live free.
And, the worst handle on the virus? Look at more than what the news media tells you. You'll see it was an engineered virus. It hit Italy, UK, USA, hard. Did not hit Singapore, Korea, Vietnam, Africa, Germany. Difference is wheat and rice/potatoes. Kills blacks in US, but not Africa? difference is wheat. Don't just make quick conclusions and repeat talking points.
As a retired person living alone, I see no need to meal plan. I have prepped enough food, supplies and the means to collect and filter water. Enough for daughter and family as well as self and pets for four or more years! If one shops at Grocery Outlet or similar there is no need to collect coupons, they do not accept them. And, their prices are 50-75% less than regular grocery stores. Have a 'working pantry' as well as short and long-term storage. Be prepared for long term power outages, have generators that use petrol and/or solar power. Everyone can grow sprouts in the kitchen, to supplement fresh salads. If folk are not prepared now, they are making a big mistake.
Good tips. I laughed about the gov reimbursing lost wages. I live in FL and there are tons of people still waiting for their unemployment from the first time we went on lockdown and lots of people lost their jobs. Never depend on the gov to help you when things go wrong. Gov should always be your Plan B or Plan C for that matter. They really don’t give a damn when individuals are evicted, homeless, can’t feed themselves, etc. So sad that most of these people paid taxes and supported others who were down on their luck for YEARS and now that they need help, there is none. 😢
Sadly, the gov's empathy for those of us who've had Grparents*Parents*Self PAY into the system has been Active for Decades!! Now, it's just coming to MORE people's Attention cuz they're in a position to NEED that Reimbursement!!! I told a friend's "Finacial" worker years ago that I never thought of myself as being prejudice til I was at a point of trying to get them MORE help above the $400 pm the system expected them to LIVE on & got told NO!!! I told her if my skin were a different color & I had some kind of Foreign accent, there wouldn't be ANY Delays in getting that help!! It's true!!
we're in Ny and when the schools closed in spring, the kids who depended on the schools for food didn't get it in most instances. In our district, they did a food pickup for the kids. The state decided a few months later to give money to makeup for that loss for low income and disabled kids, but I know families who still haven't gotten that money. I feel a little guilty, because my kids received from the district and the money from the state due to their disability status, and they received it as part of the first group to get help, but my family wasn't financially hurt by the situation. So many lost their jobs and haven't received this yet. the money went on a card and I spent it in the first month figuring it was best to use it right away and my kids were thrilled to get frozen pizzas and treats they hadn't had this spring and then I bought foods that we use a lot but will last on the shelf a long time. Try not to plan on government help, but if it's offered take it and use it to make a security net for the future. That money was a good learning tool for my kids, they told me what food they wanted me to spend it on and then they were involved in the decision of how to use the rest to add to the pantry. It didn't come as cash, it came on a card useable solely for groceries, with a few exceptions on types of groceries that could be spent on. It was also eye opening to see cashiers comment and to see what families on food stamps/snap experience.
I like to save money as much as anyone else, but sometimes I feel I'm better off buying something at full price when it is available and I have the money to purchase it. You don't save much money in the long run if you have to make a special trip to buy something on sale.
That is a great point. There is also the trade off of the value you would save by waiting vs the value you gain by purchasing now and being able to use it for that extra time.
Just wonderful, been searching for "best canned food for emergencies" for a while now, and I think this has helped. You ever tried - Ponannah Unthinkable Prestige - (just google it ) ? It is an awesome one off product for discovering how to produce an amazing bug out plan for your survival without the normal expense. Ive heard some amazing things about it and my mate got great success with it.
@@solarmoon694 if you’re into Asian food: rice, salted egg, 100 year egg, dried Asian sausage. For the green, you can home grow some green, given the amount of free time u will have to take care of those.
Get non perishable food too such as rice, pasta, beans, broth or bullion cubes, canned fruits and vegetables, shelf stable milk, oatmeal, flour, sugar, bottled water. Also get medicines and first aid stuff, personal care items warm clothing. Also make sure you're prepared for a potential power outage too, have and alternate light and heat source too.
Family in Indianapolis asked me to get them TP...the stores they shop are out. Sent me a photo from Costco...sign that said no TP, paper towels, antibacterial wipes, hydrogen peroxide, isopropyl alcohol and face shields.
I did a two week meal plan, then multiplied by 2 to get a list of what I needed for four weeks of meals and snacks. I added in two bonus items (a cake and a pie) for special treats every couple of weeks.
Not enough, you need 3-6 month worth if not 1 years worth unless you can grow your own food. Thousands more businesses will shut down this second round and the stimulus is based for businesses only if biden wins . It will take 1 year or better to recover this second time and with biden it will take 4 years or better if recovering at all. Since a lot more people may lose their jobs and may not have the things you got, there will be a lot more crime including crooks that want to take your stuff. So you better have a lot of protection 24/7. Neighbors turn into wild animals if they get hungry or needing things you got.
@@FloryJohann not sure who you're replying to - that I planned a two week plan than multiplied by two doesn't mean I did, or suggest anyone do just one month - it's a start for those struggling to figure out how to do it - if you start with two weeks of menus. then multiply by 2, you get four weeks of food....now do that 13 more times and you have a year. Math is easy, isn't it?
@@rahrahonamission7062 Something is better than nothing, you are right about this. Not able to get supplies may throw your plan out the window. Truck drivers are parking their trucks this weekend for almost a week or more which may have you using your stored food fuel and other supplies, then they have it scheduled again do that again around the second week of december with no ending date. There is no way to keep food and other items including hardware and fuel in stock. Then beginning of next year, Biden wants to shut everything down for 6 more weeks if he get elected. And in the meantime the state will shut down more and more again, which started in some states the last few days already.
Also, keep your vehicles maintained. In March 2020, my one and only vehicle was in the shop for over a month. Because one part took over four weeks to get to the mechanic s shop.
The kids will not forget the snacks, and you won’t survive the whine 😂 Food fatigue is real! We’ve even added soda and treats we NEVER buy to use for moral boosters.
@@djgourley6664 Yep! I keep a tote exclusively for toys/activities/crafts they get gifted throughout the year. They cant play with it all at once, so some gets put up for a rainy day :) We are homeschoolers so I have craft supplies out the wahzoo!
We live in a very small space so we're buying steel barrels for dry food storage. They're weather proof and fairly easy to move if necessary, plus rather inexpensive. We also use them for feed storage they are rodent proof. Living out of town and no near neighbors makes it easier for us.
@@CascadiaDispatch for people who like to plan ahead it sounds good. I tend to buy what I know we'll need then wing it when I cook. I like doing one pot meals because they are easier to do and are much more forgiving if I don't have all the ingredients.
We have been stocking up as we see good deals since March. Then I watched a few minutes of Brown's video today and feel ok. We will need perishables at some point and our children are already all online school for middle and colleges so we are as ready as we can be. Oh we have lots of snacks so kids will not complain.
I live in Australia and we have been pretty much in lockdown since March... we have just come out of a hard stage 4 lockdown and are now 15 days no cases :) if we can do it so can America... stay safe
I wish America could do what your country has done, but I’m afraid there are too many selfish, rude Americans now that just don’t care and claim their rights are being violated over everything. Because of those people, we are stuck with an infinite loop of COVID infections. Maddening.
@@miasmom1230 I’ve seen a few posts on Facebook saying some states in America are going into lockdown soon..

@@johnq.public3302 you go ahead and think that. I’ve lost someone to COVID. I have close friends who are nurses who see this day in and day out. I hope it doesn’t take someone close to you to die from it.
r u kidding me? u really believe the media and the govt? this is a new world order take over under the guise of a virus WORLDWIDE. look into un agenda 2021 and the world economic forum on the great reset. its the beast system. I pray you have eyes to see and ears to hear the truth.
All good advice. I would like to expand on the medications point a little. Your doctor may be willing to write you an additional prescription for 30-90 days to be paid for out of pocket. The cost may not be terrible if you use a generic. Don't even ask for this with meds for mental health or prescription pain relievers, as it will get you flagged as drug-seeking. A pulse oximeter will also be helpful if you get COVID-19 or any other breathing problems. Get some easy-to-take vitamins and minerals, such as gummies; they will dissolve in your mouth if you don't feel like chewing, and they taste pretty good. Plan to be sick as well as you can. It sounds strange, but I was careful -- masking everywhere, staying in unless I had to go to the grocery or pharmacy, washing after every contact -- but I still caught it, likely from an unmasked neighbor or at the pharmacy. It was a mild case, so I was able to treat mine with OTCs, fortunately, but I still have post-acute symptoms, which are slow to go away. Easy-to-prepare, familiar food that you can microwave, eat out of the package or throw together from a box mix makes the difference between eating and being hungry because you're too fatigued to do much more than sit or lie in a lump. My go-tos were nachos, dry fruit, ramen and canned pasta, drink mixes for water, and jugs of fruit juice. My roommate and I also ordered pizza a couple of times, which is pricey but also helps.
I’m sorry to hear you’re still dealing with symptoms but glad to hear most of your symptoms were manageable 🙂 I just added pulse oximeters to our first aid kits, great call out!
@@CascadiaDispatch Thanks. I'm sure it will pass with time. It's just not something a person is necessarily going to bounce back from, and some preparation for it is helpful.
@@CascadiaDispatch im in the same boat as Mckenzie Drake. Got it, fought it. Seeming survived it.... except for my sense of taste and smell! I've been having follow on problems with my blood sucrose and heart arrhythmias. But the taste and smell really affect me the.most on a day to day basis. You talk about planning for meals using the foods you like, but if all your foods taste bland (best case) to outright nasty (typically) then its hard to even get excited about food planning. Luckily, I live by myself so my problems don't impinge on others. Oh, one other 'good' thing about my follow on problems is I am having problems with orthostatic hypotension (look it up... too involved to describe here). So the Doctors tell me that I am supposed to be "liberal" with my salt intake. When food tastes blah then salt helps.
@@billscarborough4682 Crud. I hope both will clear up with time; I'm working on weight to take off any load I can, though the tachycardia seems to have settled down. My taste and smell are a little off, but it's taken me awhile to figure out where. I still cook, but I'm having to add more spices and such.
We are in Ny, we were told that it was essentially a state wide quarrentine in March but there was never an official restriction on travel, etc. Officially more things are allowed to be open again, but stores are still having shortages or limited supply on shelves so things for us haven't changed much since March. The realization that it's ongoing has changed things in that I'm grocery shopping again where I didn't do that in March and April. But most of us in this area have the possibility of a firmer shutdown for longer in mind. If my son's eating a lot of oatmeal (like he is this week) then I'll go to the store and buy enough oatmeal to replace what he ate plus give a week supply of his favorites and a couple extra boxes of varieties other family members will eat. I only get the extra boxes if the shelf is full of oatmeal though. When we make pancakes we make 5 batches and freeze them so the kids can get them easily in the morning. Cereal's going faster than normal so it's become a weekly instead of a monthly buy. I'm also trying to make 1 or 2 crockpot meals that will give us several meals of leftovers a week, to make it easier to grab it when needed. In the spring, school only sent home homework but classes ended. Now school is remote and very scheduled for classes and my husband's working at home; so now some days I only need to serve lunch twice because family members can eat together, and some days everyone is eating at a separate time due to schedules. We added soda for the caffeine and mood boost. We're taking advantage of the candy sales to put aside some of those and give them as a treat to the kids or to give a boost to my child who is struggling with a full day of school and 4 or more hours of homework a night. Preparing for March, I thought survival without needing to go to stores. Now, I think of making it more bearable for everyone. Bought some more board games but have been too busy to play them.
Prepared for the wind storms. We’ve already had a couple of them here in Washington. Propane for heat when power goes out ect... Remember winter is coming 🧦🧤
@@beccascraps8141 I have a Buddy heater. I also put a carbonmanoxcide detector close to where it is and the window close to it is open a crack. Better safe then sorry
One of the best "meal planning" systems is to do it on a walk around at the supermarket/grocery store. The most important time is Never grocery shop if you haven't eaten yet, that day. Never food shop on an empty stomach
I think you need to find something to do so you don't go stir crazy, maybe a project in the house or yard like a remodel or something you were interested in building
Some of us actually saw this coming and prepared for it. Since l haven’t been driving as much because of the pandemic, l’ve been using the money l would normally spend on gas to pick up extra food!
Hello, new subscriber. I went today and got a ton of canned goods so I'm prepared. Stocked up for 4 weeks of toilet tissue. I bought puzzles for the family to work on, dvds to watch etc. , stocked up the medicine cabinet and first aid kit.
I *thought* that was Aloha! Come on over to Hillsboro occasionally. It's the world's largest as built Costco and dwarfs Aloha so we have lots of things that Aloha doesn't (like a HUGE area for TP and paper towels). I've been a prepper for 33 years but love getting ideas from you. :-)
I'm not sure we even have room for six months' supplies in a hard lockdown, even if we assume we will gradually lose weight in the process. We may, though. I need to do a thorough inventory.
Here you are telling people to stock up. What about us on SSDI. We don’t have money to stock up. Yet have the ability to have good meals for the rest of the month.
Sorry, it may be a bit to late to stock up now, but a bit is better than nothing. Folks think that they have to buy hundreds of dollars worth of food in one setting.....do not do it. A good way to start is if you go shopping you buy 1 extra can of food or a bag of rice and put in stock. Next shopping trip you do the same. Eventually you get more and more food in stock. Eventually you will go shopping in your pantry to rotate your food, but whatever you take from your pantry you need to replace.......now we just rotate food.
Debbie, I'm also on SSDI but I get a decent amount (and I've been doing this for 33 years so I have a head start on you. If you don't have a membership to Costco, find a restaurant supply store near you that is open to the public. Here in Oregon we have Smart Foodservice. If you shop there for even one item a month, you should discover that a 25 pound bag of rice is not much more that a 1 or 2 pound bag. If you are able to pressure can, you could buy a chunk of meat to can for later (they have great prices on meat). Don't buy cans of stuff that are the same size as grocery stores though. Those prices are much higher than can be found at a discount grocery store (I shop at Winco for that reason).
@@carlaalmaraz4481 we don’t get much my husband mad 5 times more a month than he does now. After just the house payment we have $600 left and out of that is electric, heat, insurance, car payment, food and half of this $600 pays for medical insurance and then $170 for meds. In Wisconsin only one person per family can collect ssdi. Then for food stamps you have to work 24 hours a week. We can’t do that. The food pantry here helps but here we don’t get all those boxes we see on tv. As for those stores you listed I have only heard of Costco and been there a few times. That store is about a hour and a half from me. We live in a village, but we live outside the village about 5 miles. We have to sell our house because of the large payment each month with ssdi. Plus I have my last 2 kids in college. So going from over 85,000 a year to less than 24,000 a year was a very deep jump. So you tell me how to do it. I am still trying to figure out Christmas. Plus my youngest needs to have his wisdom teeth out and we have to pay $2,500 for that. Again how. If you have so much coming in send some to me.
Skip Christmas presents, cancel cable TV, dish etc, lower cell phone bill, Internet and call around for better car insurance. If smoking or drinking then Quit. Survive first...luxuries 2nd....
Great tips! I would just add a couple of things. To go with #5 (medications), stock up on disposable contact lenses before your current prescription runs out for those who need them in case of not wanting to/being able to see your optometrist. Also, if you need to do anything to winterize your car, try to do it now before the lockdowns. I had new tires put on recently, and it was super busy in there with everyone else doing the same thing!
Thank you for this excellent video! I found it practical and simple. It was validating to me but also gave me some ideas of where our gaps might be. I would LOVE a printable of your menu planner! i'd love to see both a blank one and your own menus.
I would like a PDF of the meal plan. Just to see what you planned and maybe use a few ideas. I also liked the idea of buying for one week now and one to put away. Never would have thought of that.
Thanks for another great, well-reasoned video. I love meal plans, btw. I collect 'em, pick and choose, use for my own ideas. Always helpful to see how others are using their stock =)
I canned me some bacon for the first time and I am going to get me some more with this pay because even though I have some in my freezer I know they will last longer on the shelf especially if the power happens to go out.
@@halodog939 I put the bacon on a pan in the oven. you only cook it half way that way some of the fat will bake off of it. take a piece of parchment paper and lay your bacon on it leave about an inch of paper on each side. I did 8 pieces. take another piece of parchment paper and cut it in half. lay across the to of the bacon. fold the sides in this will keep the bacon from squeezing out the sides. fold the bacon in half. there will be extra paper on top, fold that down over to the bacon then just tightly roll the bacon and stick it in a wide mouth jar. leave at least 1 inch from the top of the jar. wipe the top of the jar l, put your lid on and pressure can for 75 minutes.
Thanks. I am thinking because of the recent surge our officials are using a second lockdown as prevention. Good presentation, I am happy to be regularly informed.
Thank you for these videos! I began my prepping around march and didn’t stop. We are in New Mexico and are currently in lockdown. Our Sam’s clubs and Albertsons closed 2 days ago suddenly for 2 weeks until December 2. People are now panicking because this came suddenly and are panic buying at small markets. We have also been told that the rest of our stores will also be closing.
Don't panic. Tell your governor / dictator to pound sand and refuse to be locked down. Go about your business. No government official has the authority to order us to stay home.

The citizens, everyday people will not be able to handle the “lockdown” measures if Biden is really president. All this is smokescreen for those in power to bring about “the great reset”. What it is basically is full government control over our lives. They are always pushing more and more restrictions on us since 9/11. They use fear to make us cooperate.
Since March I've been eating oatmeal more than ever and that's like twice a week. It feels me up and helps with going to the bathroom. Good stuff. I put berries. Honey and walnuts. If it wasn't for the pandemic I wouldn't be eating oatmeal ..
Oregon, New Mexico, and Washington start lockdowns this week that will go through the first week in December...Thanksgiving will not be a group thing this year.
I've talked/chatted with a few truckers based in the West, and they say no way. Companies will find other employees in a heartbeat, and indie truckers would be bleeding money to pull over like that. It's just not a hill to die on for them, entirely apart from politics.
Ever since convid came along, flue cases went from 35 million down to 10 million cases the last season. It has been around 35 million flue cases every year for the last 20 years except this one. Looks like they got rolled into convid cases. Also to note here is that the death rate of other diseases are way down this year, compare to all the other years.
Oregon is going into a “freeze”, California and Washington just implemented self quarantine protocols for out of state visitors. Other states are also discussing various changes to their statuses as hospitalizations increase. The Biden team mentioned a 4-6 week national shutdown earlier this week.

@@CascadiaDispatch And what about essential workers? Are they completely shutting the whole country down and also Are they planning on paying everyone's bills for no work during that time?
Many of California counties have gone to stage purple lockdown as of recent. NY just closed schools today continuing to online learning tomorrow. It seems to be an unfolding scenario as covid cases continue to rise and are projected to do so until mid January which coincides with presidential inauguration
@Cyndi Rothrock Get hold of the responsible parties in advance and remind them of the needs these folks all have. Communicate with your fellow students and those who benefit from the other programs. Light a fire under those who keep you fed and let them know you're not going away.

Don't forget first aid kits for humans and your animals. I was taught this since I was kid to always be prepared for anything!! Be safe and be well everyone.
Great to hear!
I’m not afraid of a food shortage. Just of people that are willing to hurt others to feed their family or themselves.
I grew lettuces in pots inside during the first lockdown to extend my produce. All stocked up now. About to restart my lettuce pots
Lettuce is a great veggie to grow inside, especially if you harvest the leaves and let them regrow. 🤓
@@OK-jn4wn It's hard to grow beans to maturity in quantity indoors. Lettuce, spinach, and other small-space veggies still provide nutrition, fiber and fresh flavors that can make that big bag of beans easier to deal with when you're eating on it every day.
@@OK-jn4wn its more for your digestion system
I still have my winter veggies (turnip greens, radish, cabbage, mustard) still going and semi insulated with leaves (layering compost too on it for hot bed method). We will be harvesting (and preserving them) till December (we already had couple frost). Cold weather actually sweeten the greens. Will be planting garlic bulbs soon for next year. We also harvest wild weeds in the spring. And more than enuff foods to overwinter (Freezer is full too).
my second batch of Spinach just looks great. Also Kale for salads. All in boxes and pots.
Starting January 2021 this life will be not the same. If 2020 is being terrible, we need to prepare for all is coming, mercy Lord🙏
If by terrible you mean a national day of facing the reality of what we have been living under...a global plague and national division, I certainly agree with you. I've lost 12 friends to Covid. I don't have one more family member or friend to lose to this wicked disease and those who don't take it seriously. We must unite in this war like we did when called to action against the Nazis! Conspiracy theories and deliberate political divisions don't serve us well. They are of Satan. Rebuke it.
not everyone has the money to buy ahead or plan ahead, they live month to month
That is 100% true. I’m working on some ideas for people living on limited or fixed incomes to start building preps over time.
Check with local churches and food pantries. They’re giving away food at an enormous rate right now. Get it before it’s all gone.
Instead of buying fast food for a meal go purchase a extra bag of rice and a case of water. Five dollars at Dollar Tree makes a difference when stockpiling
I go to the dollar store to stock up on name brand toothpaste that's there, toothbrushes, soap, etc. At the grocery store I go to clearance racks and get discounted meat. It's doable. Stock up on spices, herbs, salt, cheap dressings that can jazz up your food. Research farming coops and if you're adventurous, you can dumpster dive. If you have pets, it may be cheaper to make their food with stuff like yams, mixed vegetables, brown rice, chicken, ground meat, etc.
@@13Bull13 You beat me to it.
Biden was asked the same question after this came up. He said there will be no "national lockdown". It would be determined by area. He also said stores that sell food would remain open regardless. There is no need to do a major stock up. The biggest problem the last time we had a surge was people hording. It's already happening again. I live in a small rural community and we had people coming from the big city in the next state to our little town trying to clear our stores out of TP, kleenex, disinfectant spray, rubbing alcohol & bread. Our local market owner showed them the door.. with their loaded carts left behind. I've always kept enough food to last a month for my family and rotate those goods - oldest out to use & replaced in each shopping trip. No matter what you're calling it - this is still panic buying. I also have a container garden growing in totes I picked up used at yard sales over the last few years that gives me the produce I need. I have them in a small greenhouse that has a vent from my house to the greenhouse to keep it warm.
It’s good to be self sufficient and prepared for anything. Those that horde are the same ones that over indulge before the pandemic. Too many are selfish.
I’m not trying to start a political debate; however Biden flip-flops like a caught fish. He originally said there would be a 4 to 6 week lockdown. And while some stores will remain open, they would be severely limited in hours. Again this is what he said... like the old adage “you know a politician is lying when he opens his mouth”.
@@foodlifefamily6140
It is not about being selfish, it about a family survival.
People are prepairing for what is starting to happen around thanksgiving and this weekend.
If you are watching Fox, CNN MSN and AP etc etc and being on face book and twitter, you probably did not get the notice since they blocked the real truthful news.
@@foodlifefamily6140 Horde? If you live in the PNW you should have enough to last you and yours at a minimum of three months. An Air Force Colonel assigned to FEMA told me it would take three months to establish any a semblance of rescue in the event of the 9.0 Cascadia earthquake. Being prepared isn’t “hoarding”.
I’m sorry, but a 4-6week National shut down for our whole country would be the start of the 2nd Great Depression.
Even without a national lockdown start preparing for new times ahead. We have to recover. Once Dec 21 comes millions will be out of income and when the stimulus checks are sent out prices will spike.
Truth don’t be sorry PLANDEMIC DONT BE SHEEP
Great Reset
I don't think we need a lock down, well not exactly/we need a PLAN.
MOST people don't need to lose their jobs/income/hours don't need to be cut.
More info, and I know its A LOT, but a good plan/a plan that goes indepth/fixes a problem/helps allot,requires depth/allot of pieces have to go into it.
Also allot of this answers/addresses, A LOT of other questions/concerns as well.
I honestly don't see anything wrong with lock downs. Meaning EVERYTHING/MOST things are DIGITAL, NOW DAYS ANYWAY, and what TRULY isn't, can be deamed essential, meaning ANYONE that works with a physical product, a computer doesn't count, UNLESS, your maintaining servers HARDWARE/if you can remote access it, that doesn't count, also Maintaining internet, also the electric companies, field workers/maintenance workers, ARE ESSENTIAL, the desk workers are not essential/don't need to leave their homes/they can use VOIP/the internet/email/portals/Zoom/some other service like SKYPE, JUST LIKE ALL OF THE OTHER, AT HOME WORKERS, other essential workers, Fedex,UPS,USPS, also if you work in a warehouse,grocery store, TO PREPARE, groceries/other products, for delivery/for doordash/instacart/stock shelves/unload trucks, if your an RN,LPN,CNA,DR,surgeon, Ambulance driver, police officer, if you need to be at a vet, to receive dogs/cats/animals, also CERTAIN medical procedures/care, is permitted, WITH the RIGHT PPE, such as respirators/hazmat suits. Also SOME garage door/door services are essential, such as medical garage doors.
Anyway a lock down, MEANS NOTHING/NOTHINGS changed, other than HOW WE DO BUSINESS, WHICH IS A LOT MORE EFFICIENT, ANYWAY, meaning less gas is being used in vehicles, less TIME IS BEING WASTED, while driving to a location, the business, is still happening though, A LOT of the money lost, in the oil fields, can be transferred over to the renewable resources field, such as solar panels,wind turbines,water mills, batteries and so on, the way the worlds going anyway/BP, sees it/has invested allot into renewable energy.
You don't NEED to leave your house to work, unless you work with a physical product.
Also your house most likely has more, than anywhere else anyway, meaning I have, computers/gaming consoles,tvs/monitors,blurays,internet/streaming services, such as Netflix,Hulu,Hbo,starz,books, pdfs and physical books, and so on, I have workout equipment, hair clippers.
I really have, no need, to leave my house, doordash/walmart/fedex/UPS/USPS/Amazon, deliver, what ever I need, and I also keep things stored, as well, JUST IN CASE.
Honestly to go out, is A LOT MORE, inconvenient, than staying home.
Other concerns/things, people have asked/my answers, to other issues, people have talked about:
I would prefer kids to be able to live a long life/SOME sacrifices are needed.
Also Vitamin D supplements is an option.
I have air purifiers/filters in my house/the air in my house, is definitely allot cleaner, than whats outside.
I also have a treadmill/a full gym,but work out bands are an option, mine go up to 1000pounds/resistance.
I'd prefer lives to be saved/a few sacrifices are worth it, to be honest.
Honestly nothings wrong with kids going outside, in their back yards, also ZOOM/Skype,Google DUO,Facetime and so on, is available for friends and family, ALSO, if you get your family to quarantine, for 20 to 30 days/not go out, for that period of time, they can stay with you or vice verse, meaning contact doesn't have to stop, if all rules are being met/your not exposed.
Also MOST kids are involved/doing virtual learning, right now/some were doing this, before any of this, and as long as the rest, of that family is doing the same/working from home, their safe as well.
Granted, SOME cases of Covid are asymptomtaic/SOME people can have covid and never show any signs, but at the same time, 30 to 40days SHOULD be long enough, not to worrie.
Also, regulations SHOULD be made, with in business, to prevent job loss/SHOW/Inlighten, companies/show them how business is done, in todays day and time/show them how the digital world works.
If your an essential worker/someone that works in a warehouse/grocery store/stocker/unloading trucks/fills orders/ANY of the jobs/types of jobs that I mentioned, than, YOU SHOULDN'T LOOSE YOUR JOB, ANYWAY.
Also SOME jobs/services AREN'T black and white, MEANING, SOME JOBS, MAY be essential, so an appealing process/through court/Zoom, SHOULD be available, to people, with no cost, to the person applying for it.
If you work in a restaurant/fast food, than, MAYBE one day, the food/bar industry will bounce back/after the Pandemic, SOME people are still using Uber Eats, I'M NOT, but SOME people are.
Also Salons/Barbershops, is ANOTHER industry, that is NOT essential right now.
Also entertainers/entertainment/big gathering and so on, are NOT essential.
You could also check out door dash/Instacart, IF your in the food/restaurant industry.
For these type workers, waiting for stimulus, is about all you can do, or like i said switch to door dash, or something like that/look at whats viable RIGHT NOW.
This is another reply/answer/ other parts to the solution/problem:
definitely the biggest problem, and thats where the military needs to step up/step in.
Also it is really easy to transfer any business over to complete digital, atleast when it comes to the payments/transactions/deliverie, parts of the business. Parts of the business, MAY not be digital though/ certain parts, MAY, can't be digital, such as the parts of the business, that work with a physical product, those are essential workers, grocery stores, shouldn't be open, to the public, but their workers are definitely essential, to unload trucks,stock shelves, prepare orders, for pick up, either by customers, that have to sit in their car, with the trunk open, or doordash/instacart drivers/deliveries or to a spot/person/bicycle.
To do this for SOME people, kiosks, installed outside walmart, so people can put their orders in, and they would be cleaned, periodically as well and sanitizer dispensers would be available as well.
Also this is what servers/VOIP/E-mail/portals/websites/apps/Skype or zoom and so on,are for/these tools allow ANYONE to work remotely.
Unless your business is already broken/your using paper/envelopes/stamps/Ink/printers/huge filing cabinets/paper calenders,huge adding machines/have no online presents/website/server.
In this case, you will SOON turn into Sears,Kmart,ToysRUs,Sports Authority,Hifi Buy,Circuit City, AND SOON GameStop.
We now have the ability to pay our bills through apps/setup auto pay.
We bank through apps, we can even deposit checks through apps, but most things are direct deposited, now days anyway, and if you use a check, MOST OF THE TIME, its handed back to you, after your transaction, and is baisicly ran as a debit/the money is taken out of your account, at the time of purchase/right away.
Anyway things are done A LOT MORE EFFICIENT, NOW DAYS.
The hardest part, is definitely going to be, the part, where the government, NEEDS, to enforce all of this and issue fines and FUTURE jail time, but at the moment, issue the digital fines and escort them back to their homes.
Court now days, is also done through zoom/digitally.
Anyway ALL of this is definitely doable, and the Military/government needs to help the people, that cant take care of them selves/that don't have access to water/ food to eat/a place to live, also do this safely as well/with the proper PPE gear on, gas masks, with the right filters/the virus protecting filters.
This would definitely help A LOT.
Also this is ONE thing, I didn't mention, I believe in rights/everyone should be able to choose, UNLESS, someone is being hurt, other than the person that chose to do something.
I think spreading covid/infected people/potentially killing old people/technically any aged person, is not right/as long as your not hurting anyone, than, I believe that people have the right, to do, what ever they want.
Also another issue, thats been brought up A LOT:
Mental health is an issue, but like I've also stated, to quarantine/be safe, you don't have to isolate AND DEFINITELY NOT FOREVER, meaning, you can be with people, as long as either, you were together, since the beginning, OR two, both people isolate them selves for 30 to 40 days.
You still have skype/zoom/entertainment/the ability to workout from home, ALSO a back yard or like me, allot of property to walk on/look around/enjoy/you can still go outside, I have fences and gates, so I don't have to worrie about people walking up/driving up on me, but ALLOT can be done from home.
The issues with suicide/abuse and so on, WERE MOST LIKELY ALREADY an issue with these people, BEFORE, ANY OF THIS, this just probably brought it out MORE/showed the issues in their relationships/minds, that were there, before any of this, meaning, being around a person for long periods of time/not having alone time, CAN/COULD cause problems, I say to that, EVERYONE, needs a place, where they can go and relax/unwind/decompress.
I have a few places like that, my man cave/gaming area, my projector room, where I can game or watch movies, my gym, I also have my office, and thats where I work.
My wife has her office and her arts and crafts room and a lady cave/where she can game, watch movies and decompress.
Mental health is a problem, but its a separate problem/an existing problem, IN MOST CASES.
Zoom/skype/Google DUO/facetime, CAN/COULD definitely be used to talk to a therapist, it might not be ideal, but it CAN definitely help.
Also if abuse is the issue, MAKE A PLAN/contact authorities discreetly/I know that can be a hard/a tricky situation.
I'm not saying mental health isn't real, but MOST LIKELY, it was already an issue BEFORE covid, anxiety or what ever it might be.
Therapy/medication OR a mental health facility, MAY be whats needed, for that.

Its sad that people can't be responsible and take the necessary precautions on their own, that the government would have to step in. I can't believe that the most advanced country in the world (us), had the absolute worst handle on this virus.
It really is unfortunate!
I wasn't going to comment at all, but your comment warrants one. You are asking for communist dictator north Korea treatment. I didn't go to two countries and be involved in two wars so you can give away your freedom. Even the blue state lockdowns are unconstitutional, and they are collapsing because of them. Media not telling it all as always. Unemployment is high, but really it's low in red states and astronomical in blue states. Im still busy as ever, went to several stores yesterday, all well stocked as they always have been, no mask either. Do you live in a blue state?
@@ridgerunner106 I think you completely missed the point of my comment.. if people cared about their fellow americans and wore a mask and practiced social distancing we wouldn't be in this position.
@@amirchar Well, it's pretty obvious how they feel. Government should not step out of bounds. What if the govt mandates a vaccine? You'll go for that too? Even though there is no recourse if it is tainted, makes you sick, has fungus in it? Compliance to the govt is opening some bad doors, that you will wish were still closed. If the govt is do afraid, they, yes they, should stay locked down. As for me, I will continue to live free.
And, the worst handle on the virus? Look at more than what the news media tells you. You'll see it was an engineered virus. It hit Italy, UK, USA, hard. Did not hit Singapore, Korea, Vietnam, Africa, Germany. Difference is wheat and rice/potatoes. Kills blacks in US, but not Africa? difference is wheat. Don't just make quick conclusions and repeat talking points.
As a retired person living alone, I see no need to meal plan. I have prepped enough food, supplies and the means to collect and filter water. Enough for daughter and family as well as self and pets for four or more years! If one shops at Grocery Outlet or similar there is no need to collect coupons, they do not accept them. And, their prices are 50-75% less than regular grocery stores. Have a 'working pantry' as well as short and long-term storage. Be prepared for long term power outages, have generators that use petrol and/or solar power. Everyone can grow sprouts in the kitchen, to supplement fresh salads. If folk are not prepared now, they are making a big mistake.
Good tips. I laughed about the gov reimbursing lost wages. I live in FL and there are tons of people still waiting for their unemployment from the first time we went on lockdown and lots of people lost their jobs. Never depend on the gov to help you when things go wrong. Gov should always be your Plan B or Plan C for that matter. They really don’t give a damn when individuals are evicted, homeless, can’t feed themselves, etc. So sad that most of these people paid taxes and supported others who were down on their luck for YEARS and now that they need help, there is none. 😢
Well said. Don’t depend on government. Hope it’s not a preview to the Great Reset.
Sadly, the gov's empathy for those of us who've had Grparents*Parents*Self PAY into the system has been Active for Decades!! Now, it's just coming to MORE people's Attention cuz they're in a position to NEED that Reimbursement!!!
I told a friend's "Finacial" worker years ago that I never thought of myself as being prejudice til I was at a point of trying to get them MORE help above the $400 pm the system expected them to LIVE on & got told NO!!! I told her if my skin were a different color & I had some kind of Foreign accent, there wouldn't be ANY Delays in getting that help!! It's true!!
we're in Ny and when the schools closed in spring, the kids who depended on the schools for food didn't get it in most instances. In our district, they did a food pickup for the kids. The state decided a few months later to give money to makeup for that loss for low income and disabled kids, but I know families who still haven't gotten that money. I feel a little guilty, because my kids received from the district and the money from the state due to their disability status, and they received it as part of the first group to get help, but my family wasn't financially hurt by the situation. So many lost their jobs and haven't received this yet. the money went on a card and I spent it in the first month figuring it was best to use it right away and my kids were thrilled to get frozen pizzas and treats they hadn't had this spring and then I bought foods that we use a lot but will last on the shelf a long time. Try not to plan on government help, but if it's offered take it and use it to make a security net for the future. That money was a good learning tool for my kids, they told me what food they wanted me to spend it on and then they were involved in the decision of how to use the rest to add to the pantry. It didn't come as cash, it came on a card useable solely for groceries, with a few exceptions on types of groceries that could be spent on. It was also eye opening to see cashiers comment and to see what families on food stamps/snap experience.
Jane Sanchez exactly. Not a good thing to have to depend on the govt.
You have your governor to thank for the ails Florida is facing.
I like to save money as much as anyone else, but sometimes I feel I'm better off buying something at full price when it is available and I have the money to purchase it. You don't save much money in the long run if you have to make a special trip to buy something on sale.
That is a great point. There is also the trade off of the value you would save by waiting vs the value you gain by purchasing now and being able to use it for that extra time.
A bird 🐦 in the hand is worth two in the bush.
Please plan for single elderly also.
Great point!

@@tydd1985 And, if you can, some 'pets with benefits' like chickens, quail or ducks. Geese also lay eggs, but you don't get so many week to week.
We make food bags for our neighborhood seniors. Always good soups, crackers, fruit cups and pasta. Just drop a bag off when you can 😄
Get non perishable food too such as rice, pasta, beans, broth or bullion cubes, canned fruits and vegetables, shelf stable milk, oatmeal, flour, sugar, bottled water. Also get medicines and first aid stuff, personal care items warm clothing. Also make sure you're prepared for a potential power outage too, have and alternate light and heat source too.
Great tips!
toilet paper is gone in most stores, people were lined up in eugene at costco. it's already getting bad again
😳😳 thanks for the update! I hope it doesn’t get bad again...but best to be prepared in case!
It depends where you are. Winco in Sacramento has full supplies and no limit.
its definitely getting bad here in the Seattle area as well, no TP in sight.
@@beccascraps8141 same in Kentucky
Family in Indianapolis asked me to get them TP...the stores they shop are out. Sent me a photo from Costco...sign that said no TP, paper towels, antibacterial wipes, hydrogen peroxide, isopropyl alcohol and face shields.
I did a two week meal plan, then multiplied by 2 to get a list of what I needed for four weeks of meals and snacks. I added in two bonus items (a cake and a pie) for special treats every couple of weeks.
Mmmm...cake...mmmm...pie...😋
I love this idea.
Not enough, you need 3-6 month worth if not 1 years worth unless you can grow your own food.
Thousands more businesses will shut down this second round and the stimulus is based for businesses only if biden wins . It will take 1 year or better to recover this second time and with biden it will take 4 years or better if recovering at all.
Since a lot more people may lose their jobs and may not have the things you got, there will be a lot more crime including crooks that want to take your stuff. So you better have a lot of protection 24/7. Neighbors turn into wild animals if they get hungry or needing things you got.
@@FloryJohann not sure who you're replying to - that I planned a two week plan than multiplied by two doesn't mean I did, or suggest anyone do just one month - it's a start for those struggling to figure out how to do it - if you start with two weeks of menus. then multiply by 2, you get four weeks of food....now do that 13 more times and you have a year. Math is easy, isn't it?
@@rahrahonamission7062 Something is better than nothing, you are right about this. Not able to get supplies may throw your plan out the window. Truck drivers are parking their trucks this weekend for almost a week or more which may have you using your stored food fuel and other supplies, then they have it scheduled again do that again around the second week of december with no ending date. There is no way to keep food and other items including hardware and fuel in stock. Then beginning of next year, Biden wants to shut everything down for 6 more weeks if he get elected. And in the meantime the state will shut down more and more again, which started in some states the last few days already.
Also, keep your vehicles maintained. In March 2020, my one and only vehicle was in the shop for over a month. Because one part took over four weeks to get to the mechanic s shop.
Great point!
The kids will not forget the snacks, and you won’t survive the whine 😂
Food fatigue is real! We’ve even added soda and treats we NEVER buy to use for moral boosters.
The number of things we said we’d never do as parents...before we had kids...is astronomical 😳😂🤦♂️
Crafts for kids too
sweet things for yourself lol. me it is laffy taffy, tootsie rolls and gobstoppers.
I bought root beer and ginger ale, one for a treat the other in case I get sick :)
@@djgourley6664 Yep! I keep a tote exclusively for toys/activities/crafts they get gifted throughout the year. They cant play with it all at once, so some gets put up for a rainy day :) We are homeschoolers so I have craft supplies out the wahzoo!
We live in a very small space so we're buying steel barrels for dry food storage. They're weather proof and fairly easy to move if necessary, plus rather inexpensive. We also use them for feed storage they are rodent proof. Living out of town and no near neighbors makes it easier for us.
Steel barrels is a great idea! What do you think about the meal planning pdf idea?
@@CascadiaDispatch for people who like to plan ahead it sounds good. I tend to buy what I know we'll need then wing it when I cook. I like doing one pot meals because they are easier to do and are much more forgiving if I don't have all the ingredients.
Do you buy those at farm stores?
We have been stocking up as we see good deals since March. Then I watched a few minutes of Brown's video today and feel ok. We will need perishables at some point and our children are already all online school for middle and colleges so we are as ready as we can be. Oh we have lots of snacks so kids will not complain.
Yeah, I saw the alert of Gov. Brown’s announcement an hour after the video launched...unfortunate/fortunate timing I guess 🤓
I live in Australia and we have been pretty much in lockdown since March... we have just come out of a hard stage 4 lockdown and are now 15 days no cases :) if we can do it so can America... stay safe
Nice work!
I wish America could do what your country has done, but I’m afraid there are too many selfish, rude Americans now that just don’t care and claim their rights are being violated over everything. Because of those people, we are stuck with an infinite loop of COVID infections. Maddening.
@@miasmom1230 I’ve seen a few posts on Facebook saying some states in America are going into lockdown soon.. Bus yes your right there are some very selfish people out there that just think about themselves.. all I can say is you just do you and keep yourself and your family safe by doing the right thing :) stay safe
@@johnq.public3302 you go ahead and think that. I’ve lost someone to COVID. I have close friends who are nurses who see this day in and day out. I hope it doesn’t take someone close to you to die from it.
r u kidding me? u really believe the media and the govt? this is a new world order take over under the guise of a virus WORLDWIDE. look into un agenda 2021 and the world economic forum on the great reset. its the beast system. I pray you have eyes to see and ears to hear the truth.
All good advice. I would like to expand on the medications point a little. Your doctor may be willing to write you an additional prescription for 30-90 days to be paid for out of pocket. The cost may not be terrible if you use a generic. Don't even ask for this with meds for mental health or prescription pain relievers, as it will get you flagged as drug-seeking. A pulse oximeter will also be helpful if you get COVID-19 or any other breathing problems.
Get some easy-to-take vitamins and minerals, such as gummies; they will dissolve in your mouth if you don't feel like chewing, and they taste pretty good.
Plan to be sick as well as you can. It sounds strange, but I was careful -- masking everywhere, staying in unless I had to go to the grocery or pharmacy, washing after every contact -- but I still caught it, likely from an unmasked neighbor or at the pharmacy. It was a mild case, so I was able to treat mine with OTCs, fortunately, but I still have post-acute symptoms, which are slow to go away. Easy-to-prepare, familiar food that you can microwave, eat out of the package or throw together from a box mix makes the difference between eating and being hungry because you're too fatigued to do much more than sit or lie in a lump. My go-tos were nachos, dry fruit, ramen and canned pasta, drink mixes for water, and jugs of fruit juice. My roommate and I also ordered pizza a couple of times, which is pricey but also helps.
I’m sorry to hear you’re still dealing with symptoms but glad to hear most of your symptoms were manageable 🙂 I just added pulse oximeters to our first aid kits, great call out!
@@CascadiaDispatch Thanks. I'm sure it will pass with time. It's just not something a person is necessarily going to bounce back from, and some preparation for it is helpful.
If your psych meds aren’t a controlled substance and you pay cash, in Michigan you can get them for more than one month.
@@CascadiaDispatch im in the same boat as Mckenzie Drake. Got it, fought it. Seeming survived it.... except for my sense of taste and smell! I've been having follow on problems with my blood sucrose and heart arrhythmias. But the taste and smell really affect me the.most on a day to day basis. You talk about planning for meals using the foods you like, but if all your foods taste bland (best case) to outright nasty (typically) then its hard to even get excited about food planning. Luckily, I live by myself so my problems don't impinge on others. Oh, one other 'good' thing about my follow on problems is I am having problems with orthostatic hypotension (look it up... too involved to describe here). So the Doctors tell me that I am supposed to be "liberal" with my salt intake. When food tastes blah then salt helps.
@@billscarborough4682 Crud. I hope both will clear up with time; I'm working on weight to take off any load I can, though the tachycardia seems to have settled down. My taste and smell are a little off, but it's taken me awhile to figure out where. I still cook, but I'm having to add more spices and such.
Keep your gas tank full but make sure to use it. Gasoline has a life expectancy and you can drain your battery.
Great tip!
We are in Ny, we were told that it was essentially a state wide quarrentine in March but there was never an official restriction on travel, etc. Officially more things are allowed to be open again, but stores are still having shortages or limited supply on shelves so things for us haven't changed much since March. The realization that it's ongoing has changed things in that I'm grocery shopping again where I didn't do that in March and April. But most of us in this area have the possibility of a firmer shutdown for longer in mind. If my son's eating a lot of oatmeal (like he is this week) then I'll go to the store and buy enough oatmeal to replace what he ate plus give a week supply of his favorites and a couple extra boxes of varieties other family members will eat. I only get the extra boxes if the shelf is full of oatmeal though. When we make pancakes we make 5 batches and freeze them so the kids can get them easily in the morning. Cereal's going faster than normal so it's become a weekly instead of a monthly buy. I'm also trying to make 1 or 2 crockpot meals that will give us several meals of leftovers a week, to make it easier to grab it when needed. In the spring, school only sent home homework but classes ended. Now school is remote and very scheduled for classes and my husband's working at home; so now some days I only need to serve lunch twice because family members can eat together, and some days everyone is eating at a separate time due to schedules. We added soda for the caffeine and mood boost. We're taking advantage of the candy sales to put aside some of those and give them as a treat to the kids or to give a boost to my child who is struggling with a full day of school and 4 or more hours of homework a night. Preparing for March, I thought survival without needing to go to stores. Now, I think of making it more bearable for everyone. Bought some more board games but have been too busy to play them.
(3:27) There’s no panic buying in baseball! Lol.
😂😂😂⚾️
Yes to the meal prep pdf! Exactly what I need
Awesome! I’m working on it! :-)
Prepared for the wind storms. We’ve already had a couple of them here in Washington. Propane for heat when power goes out ect... Remember winter is coming 🧦🧤
Great job! We had some storms in Oregon this week and lost power for a bit...Covid preps, and Winter Preps, and wind preps, oh my!
so propane is safe to use indoors? Do you have any recommendations? thanks

I was thinking the same thing! 😆😆
Fellow Oregon Prepper here. Oregon City.
Yahoo for Oregon Preppers! 🥳
One of the best "meal planning" systems is to do it on a walk around at the supermarket/grocery store.
The most important time is Never grocery shop if you haven't eaten yet, that day. Never food shop on an empty stomach
Great tips!
Cyndi Rothrock...
The point of prepping IS to buy MORE of what you have at home... you dont fill empty shelves you ADD to FULL ones!!
Great ideas! Remember everybody: Two is one and one is none.
Great reminder!
And 3 is parts for 2!
Nice!
I had never heard that saying before. I had to look it up!👍
@@dmeyerification it’s a classic :-)
But now the entire state has been put on a freeze.
I think you need to find something to do so you don't go stir crazy, maybe a project in the house or yard like a remodel or something you were interested in building
Great idea!
How can someone buy anything when theirs no stimules coming in to go shopping to get those much needed supplies?!?😁🤩
That is a great point!
True. I wouldn’t count on seeing one in the near future
Some of us actually saw this coming and prepared for it. Since l haven’t been driving as much because of the pandemic, l’ve been using the money l would normally spend on gas to pick up extra food!
Hello, new subscriber. I went today and got a ton of canned goods so I'm prepared. Stocked up for 4 weeks of toilet tissue. I bought puzzles for the family to work on, dvds to watch etc. , stocked up the medicine cabinet and first aid kit.

Thank you! I try to! :-)
You can get a meal planning thing from Money Saving Mom.
Good advice. Thanks I am in Oregon too. I have a feeling we will have a longer pause then the 2 weeks. Cases are to high.

I am in Tigard, was that the Tigard Costco? Glad I went last week they had TP then.
@@dianeandrews7746 it was the Aloha Costco :-)
I am in NE Portland.
I *thought* that was Aloha! Come on over to Hillsboro occasionally. It's the world's largest as built Costco and dwarfs Aloha so we have lots of things that Aloha doesn't (like a HUGE area for TP and paper towels). I've been a prepper for 33 years but love getting ideas from you. :-)
More like 6 months or 6 years
Let’s hope not! 😳
I'm not sure we even have room for six months' supplies in a hard lockdown, even if we assume we will gradually lose weight in the process. We may, though. I need to do a thorough inventory.
Congress can not even get their own people right with unemployment, I highly doubt this will happen:
Here you are telling people to stock up. What about us on SSDI. We don’t have money to stock up. Yet have the ability to have good meals for the rest of the month.
That is an excellent concern. I’ll try to put some videos together to help with planning to prep on a fixed income.
Sorry, it may be a bit to late to stock up now, but a bit is better than nothing.
Folks think that they have to buy hundreds of dollars worth of food in one setting.....do not do it.
A good way to start is if you go shopping you buy 1 extra can of food or a bag of rice and put in stock. Next shopping trip you do the same. Eventually you get more and more food in stock. Eventually you will go shopping in your pantry to rotate your food, but whatever you take from your pantry you need to replace.......now we just rotate food.
Debbie, I'm also on SSDI but I get a decent amount (and I've been doing this for 33 years so I have a head start on you. If you don't have a membership to Costco, find a restaurant supply store near you that is open to the public. Here in Oregon we have Smart Foodservice. If you shop there for even one item a month, you should discover that a 25 pound bag of rice is not much more that a 1 or 2 pound bag. If you are able to pressure can, you could buy a chunk of meat to can for later (they have great prices on meat). Don't buy cans of stuff that are the same size as grocery stores though. Those prices are much higher than can be found at a discount grocery store (I shop at Winco for that reason).
@@carlaalmaraz4481 we don’t get much my husband mad 5 times more a month than he does now. After just the house payment we have $600 left and out of that is electric, heat, insurance, car payment, food and half of this $600 pays for medical insurance and then $170 for meds. In Wisconsin only one person per family can collect ssdi. Then for food stamps you have to work 24 hours a week. We can’t do that. The food pantry here helps but here we don’t get all those boxes we see on tv. As for those stores you listed I have only heard of Costco and been there a few times. That store is about a hour and a half from me. We live in a village, but we live outside the village about 5 miles. We have to sell our house because of the large payment each month with ssdi. Plus I have my last 2 kids in college. So going from over 85,000 a year to less than 24,000 a year was a very deep jump. So you tell me how to do it. I am still trying to figure out Christmas. Plus my youngest needs to have his wisdom teeth out and we have to pay $2,500 for that. Again how. If you have so much coming in send some to me.
Skip Christmas presents, cancel cable TV, dish etc, lower cell phone bill, Internet and call around for better car insurance. If smoking or drinking then Quit. Survive first...luxuries 2nd....
Great tips! I would just add a couple of things. To go with #5 (medications), stock up on disposable contact lenses before your current prescription runs out for those who need them in case of not wanting to/being able to see your optometrist. Also, if you need to do anything to winterize your car, try to do it now before the lockdowns. I had new tires put on recently, and it was super busy in there with everyone else doing the same thing!
Great tips! Winterizing your car is a really smart idea now too!

Mmm...bacon! 😋
Jenny Hackenberg ok how do you can bacon?
@@halodog939 I put the bacon on a pan in the oven. you only cook it half way that way some of the fat will bake off of it. take a piece of parchment paper and lay your bacon on it leave about an inch of paper on each side. I did 8 pieces. take another piece of parchment paper and cut it in half. lay across the to of the bacon. fold the sides in this will keep the bacon from squeezing out the sides. fold the bacon in half. there will be extra paper on top, fold that down over to the bacon then just tightly roll the bacon and stick it in a wide mouth jar. leave at least 1 inch from the top of the jar. wipe the top of the jar l, put your lid on and pressure can for 75 minutes.

The citizens, everyday people will not be able to handle the “lockdown” measures if Biden is really president. All this is smokescreen for those in power to bring about “the great reset”. What it is basically is full government control over our lives. They are always pushing more and more restrictions on us since 9/11. They use fear to make us cooperate.

I've talked/chatted with a few truckers based in the West, and they say no way. Companies will find other employees in a heartbeat, and indie truckers would be bleeding money to pull over like that. It's just not a hill to die on for them, entirely apart from politics.

We forgot that it's flu season.
Ever since convid came along, flue cases went from 35 million down to 10 million cases the last season. It has been around 35 million flue cases every year for the last 20 years except this one. Looks like they got rolled into convid cases. Also to note here is that the death rate of other diseases are way down this year, compare to all the other years.

Is this lockdown only in your state.? I've heard nothing of this here in California.
Oregon is going into a “freeze”, California and Washington just implemented self quarantine protocols for out of state visitors. Other states are also discussing various changes to their statuses as hospitalizations increase. The Biden team mentioned a 4-6 week national shutdown earlier this week.

@@CascadiaDispatch I’m a buff. But my daughter played lacrosse for the ducks so I’m a duck too big time. So much fun being part of uncle Phil’s organization. Once in a lifetime. She lived across the street from Hayward and have you seen that lately? Wow.
@@markblumhardt I haven’t been down to campus but I’ve seen video of Hayward, it’s amazing!!
Great video!
