A freezer and a washing machine post collapse? really?

The above post could save money at any time pre collapse.

Post collapse priority would always be battery charging and lighting.

Then certainly the freezer while you can and there’s surplus food, even home grown stuff.

Immersion heater pre or post definitely, washing machine if you can why not ?.

If you have any solar power use it to make life a little easier.

Your choice.
