within 2 hours of shtf every heroin addict and druggine in the world will head there first , not supermarkets.
and smack heads aint too tidy, they will scatter everything that dont say morphine on it.
then the other druggies will come in and take anything that ends in poxide, ium, pan etc.
all the other meds wil be trodden on urinated on and thrown up on as they o.d and die choking on their own vomit.
just a guess but its highly likely.
i keep my meds stocked.
first thing a smack head ever thinks about is a fix.
then again , not everyone lives where i live.
Luckily we won't have to put up with Smackheads for long as they will all die and be flushed out to sea with all the other turds. One thing is clear from all disasters/breakdowns and that is the demand for Drugs(I use this word to mean all drugs not just recreational ones) goes up beyond the ability of Governments to supply, or remedy the situation. Think of all the scenarios playing out before us over the last couple of years, and remember how there was always an appeal for medicines after every one!! A smart prepper would make an effort to stock up on all types of medication they can get, including strong pain relief of the prescription variety. I make a conscious effort when visiting our local Pharmacies to scan the layout of the shelves, noticing where they keep certain medicines.

If so how do you open them when the power goes down. My nearest marina has them, fortunatly thetes plenty of oyher boats that dont more there.
Yes it has flood gates, but they can nearly all be hand cranked, so I wouldn't worry about not being able to get to sea. Thinking about boats, there is a wide network off canals to bug out to and I reckon you could lay low for a while on a Barge etc. Plus most canals have direct access to cities, great for a quick forage without having to use the roads, very stealthy
