Re: Roll your own

Did a search the other day in local stores,... found powder ( got enough ) , heads ( tho prices were up 20%, got plenty ) but no primers.
most store had open bricks but none full. When I buy its 5 bricks (5k ) at a time.
Getting worried, down to my last 5000 primers :)

Re: Power banks

Haven't found a power bank ( with self contained solar ) that is worth it yet... just not enough output from the small panel to be effective IMO.

Re: What have you done this week to forward your prepping goals 2020

Found a couple cases of baby wipes and surprise a gallon of lysol concentrate. Have been able to mix up a diluted amount of lysol liquid and then pour into the baby wipe container making a disinfection wipe ( non-flushable ).

Re: The Lessons of Covid: Prepping

good read... made me go reorganize the storage items and go label more items with my sharpie for easy rotation. PS added TP too :) Also picked up 2 cases of baby wipes and a gallon of lysol concentrate... allows me to mix up lysol liquid and pour it into the wipes container to convert to lysol wipes...

Re: Political signs

Near me, putting out a Trump sign is like saying come damage my cars, property, etc... NY sucks

I'd rather be the quiet man and then vote in private

Increased my backup meds... some how my daily meds all got wet and had to be replaced. :?
Ins companies allow for damage now and then.

Did a Costco run for a few packs of normal vitamins and pain killers ( they do get rotated )

Re: Preparations for October-November

Housing on Long Island have gone up quite a bit over last few months too.... all the people fleeing NYC. ( same with upstate )
It is going to be a mess, and I'm 55 miles away.
