If you thought things were going DOWN THE PAN FAST and you had a little spare cash would you hit the local supermarket or hardware shops, or just pay of some bills ?.
Water storage....jerrycans, waterbutts, sterilisation thin bleach & oasis tablets.
Food....look for special (2for1) offers, it soon adds up.
Heating....have you a wood burner or have you a chimney for an open fire?....Carbon monoxide and smoke detectors are ESSENTIAL.
Cooking....wood burner/stove ?, or portable camping stove with gas bottle.
Lighting....Windup led lantern, a head torch is useful, plenty rechargeable batteries.
Battery charging....a solar panel.
Medications....if you’re on prescription medication try and build a stock, don’t forget OTC meds and a good first aid kit.
Communication....a windup portable radio SW capable, maybe a couple of walkie-talkies.
Toilet....camping chemical toilet with chemicals.
So what would you prioritise ?.
