Top Priorities SHTF How To Prepare Stay Safe What to do SHTF step by step plan
hi it's AlaskaGranny Alaska Prepper most of us spend a lot of time away from our homes
have you ever thought what would I do if an SHTF event occurred while I was away from my home what
if there was a major disruption or an emergency do you have a plan on what to do so that you can
be as safe as possible get to your vehicle as soon as possible and make sure all the doors
and windows are locked that should be something you do always when you're out in your vehicle
head to the nearest gas station if it appears to be safe fill up your car as quickly as possible
then if there's a mini mark get all of the bottled water and snacks that you can
remember all that cash you were supposed to be carrying for an emergency
this might be the time you need it it's a power outage situation now you want to determine what
is the safest route to get home you want to stay away from congested areas you want to avoid crowds
take to the back quieter roads if at all possible you want to stay out of sight stay away from
whatever is the center of what's causing an emergency now you want to get home asap
if you're comfortable you have the correct permit and training and you're allowed to
have it with you keep it handy this is not the time to be fiddling around with where
is it in a real emergency situation you may only have seconds to defend yourself
you're probably safer staying with your vehicle but if for some reason you're unable to continue
driving that's when you're glad you have your get home bag pull your car out of the way as safely
as possible get your bag and get going remember that's why you made a plan and you have a route
to get home and you've thought about it and made your decisions everyone needs a food stockpile
figure out what you use in your home for a week or two and provide those items storing food
doesn't have to be expensive or complicated you just need to focus on storing basic foods store
foods that are ready to eat and easy to prepare cans of ready to eat food like chili soup tamales
things you know your family will eat rice beans cans of meat cans of vegetables cans of fruit
it's simple to put together easy to prepare normal foods that your family can eat look at the things
you enjoy figure out ways that you can have those in a simple to prepare way make sure that you
always have a camp stove so that you still have a way to prepare a few things for your family
then look at your own needs and make an analysis what would you miss most if you could never get
it again that's the greatest place to start stockpiling are you concerned with the power
outage stockpile lighters candles matches are you concerned with hygiene stockpile some soap toilet
paper toothpaste and toothbrushes feminine hygiene products cleaners bleach vinegar trash bags
think about medicine would you miss painkillers rash ointments allergy pills cough syrups
what about some basic tools and basic household items like scissors sewing kits
can openers gloves ones that keep you warm and ones that help keep you safe
and don't forget clean socks and underwear do you have a baby in the house then maybe you need to
stockpile some baby supplies one important item in my list is a portable toilet think about vices
ones that affect you or those that you plan to be with cigarettes alcohol chocolate coffee stockpile
of things that you would miss most because those are the things that are most important to you
if you could never get them again are you okay with that or would you be saying darn it i
should have gotten some more of that that's how you know what you really want to have
then whether we have an end of the world as we know it an apocalyptic event something with shtf
or a snowstorm and you just don't want to go to the store
you'll probably then have the supplies that you would want in any kind of a situation people who
plan are the ones who have a much better time in a crisis situation so be glad that you're making
the preparations so that you'll be okay no matter what comes your way learn more at alaskagranny.com
