72 Hour Kits Week 5

We are on the last few weeks of 72 hour kits.  Hope you have been able to get started or even better are keeping up!  Money for the tube tents and solar blankets will be due on the 15th.  I will be emailing you the total for your order.

This week we will be working on Fuel and Light. 

You will need:
Waterproof stick matches (we keep ours in an empty pill bottle)
fire starters
flint & steel
Chemical Heat Packs  ($1 for a 2 pack at Walmart, Home Depot)
Portable Cooking Stoves/Sterno Type canned Fuel (See note at bottom)
Fire Extinguisher

Flashlight
Extra Batteries
Chemical LIght Sticks (2 packs can be found at Dollar Tree)

These small flashlights seem pretty ideal for a kids bag.  They were $1.88 at Walmart.

 

Larger Flashlight for $.98 at Walmart.

 

We have one of these in our bags.  Headlights 3pk for $15.98 at Home Depot.

 

 

I talked to the Preparedness Store about their portable stoves.  They are $8.95 and $5.45 for a 2 pack of canned fuel.  If enough people are interested I am sure they would do another bulk order discount so let me know if this is something that interests you.

 

I would also be happy to pick up light sticks, flashlights, matches and chemical heat packs for anybody interested.  Especially if it helps you get your kits together!   Let me know!
