Disaster Shopping List, Week 3

It’s Wednesday, time for your Week 3 shopping list mission! So, if you’ve been faithfully reading and following my advice, you should now have containers, water, food and other various and sundry items. So, now comes week 3 and it’s time for some more food to keep your family nourished in case of an emergency. As you roam the aisles in search of bargains this week, throw in these extra items for your emergency kit (adjust the quantities for your family’s needs):

1 jar of Jam or jelly
1 jar Peanut butter
Box(es) of saltine crackers
Bags of beef jerky

Large can(s) of juice (and a manual can opener)
Instant coffee/tea/powdered drinks (hello TANG!)
Consider keeping a few loaves of bread in the freezer and rotating them every few months

All of these won’t cost a fortune and will keep you fed when the lights are out. The amounts of food given are for a family of 3-4. Obviously, if your family is larger, you probably want to consider more food. Unless…Donner…party of 8….?
