Hurricane Season is right around the corner. Every time I even hear the word hurricane, by stomach turns and my breathing pattern changes (I'm not kidding). So here's what I had in mind. Instead of rushing out the last possible minute after getting a warning, wouldn't it make sense to get certain necessities now?
At the beginning of each Summer we stock up on water - we buy a number of cases of spring water and store it in our garage, this is the item that goes first when there's an emergency and then you see people buying expensive "designer water" because there is nothing left. Just go get it now and save yourself the hassle....the good thing is that it won't go bad.
Other items that you should by are batteries, flashlights or lanterns and stock up on some canned goods, and make sure you have an extra tank of propane gas for your bar-b-q grill.
