When do YOU start looting.

Hold that thought Hexyprep.
None of us has an infinite amount of supplies, they will run out eventually.

A bug out scenario for you:-
For some reason you've bugged out or even worse BEEN bugged out and all your careful preps are lost.
Not your fault but there you are without food, water, or candles.
On the road.
No shops, no where to spend your carefully prepped money, no aid, naught. Oh yes, you've just run out of fuel.

So what you going to do for supplies and fuel?

Whether you like it or not , you may have to start foraging / looting at some time. That's what I think the thread is all about.
When would you consider "looting" to keep alive.
