Yesterday I went to purchase bullets for our newly acquired guns. Someone recommend I get them at Wal-mart (price). I went there after work, and the only handgun ammunition they had was .45 caliber. Their shelves were bare. The guy behind the counter said it had been that way for at least 3 months. I may try Gander Mountain today. I need to get a finger-print safe as well; so, maybe I can knock out two things at once.
Also, I completely finished the car kit yesterday. I have update the “car kit” page with pictures. I also added “tow rope/chain” to the car kit. We won’t have one of these, but I thought I should include it in case others reading the list might want to consider it.
I have not completed the “car kit” needed for an evacuation. That list includes 5 items, but I think I am only going to get a 5 gallon gas container and 5 quarts of oil. I won’t be buying a spare radiator hose, spare fan belt, or spare fuses. If we had a problem with any of those things, the only one I would know how to fix anyway would be the fuses. Maybe someone else would stop and help us if I needed to replace something like a fan belt, but I just think the chances of needing to do that versus the space needed for other things makes it not worth it to us.
Today, I hope to accomplish the following:
- Buy bullets
- Buy finger-print safe for storing loaded guns in bedroom
- Fill 2 one gallon gas tanks
- Fill 5 gallon gas tank
- Buy 5 quarts of motor oil
- Update inventory lists with items purchased from last week
- Make detailed action item list (things to do, things to buy) for water needs
