Prioritizing, you need at least these four things in your household. They can save your life. These were selected based on my experience, survival training, and reviewing after action reports of people who've experienced natural and man-made disasters.

ESSENTIALS
YOU MUST HAVE
For around $50

2. Trying to prepare for an emergency or disaster

3. Minimum:
2 cases of water per person= $9

What Must You Have Now?

4. Two Cases of water per person
Why? We can last only three days without water. 2 cases is
enough for a person for a six day supply (8 bottles per day).
It is the #1 priority being brought in after a disaster; have it
on hand beforehand.
WATER— the #1 Priority
Prices vary but should cost roughly $4.50.
Two cases= $9

5. There are numerous prepared ones you can buy.
Below is a very basic one.

disasters. Cell phone service and cable TV can be
disrupted. Even if you have cell phone coverage, you
might not be able to charge your phone. The device
below includes a cell phone/USB charger and flashlight.
Crank and solar charge.
Portable battery/solar/crank
survival radio.
$17.49

7. Do you know what to do in an emergency?
