How long will a stash of fuel last buried in the garden? It would make sense to buy some now and hide it away but just wondering what the shelf life is?
What oil based products could we buy now or in the near future to barter with?

A Bicycles, horses, boats, canoes, steam locos, LPG powered vehicles, Ponies. However those preppers with motorised bug out plans have alreasy stored enough treated fuel to get them to their place of safety, after that the BOV has done its job.

Treated fuel can last up to 3 1/2 years for petrol and 5 or more for diesel, which is long enough to start making your own biol diesel or convert to other transport systems.

Parafin, Diesel, Meths for barter.
