I have been doing emergency storage for 3 years now. It saved me when I was out of work, sick ect. Not just for terrioisum which I am very prepard for but for anytime. A person who laughs at someone like me is not going to make it in todays world. Stores do now have more then a 2 week supply of items. Then what ? I stock up on food to last about 6 months or more but its stuff I use everyday so Im not out anything. I just have a little more then normal is all. At least my family will not starve if and when anything happens. I would like to hear from others who are into the emergency preparedness stuff .
The stuff that you expect to last about 6 months will last exactly a week because those who know of your supplies will come an rob you. But even if you manage to protect your supplies, what you gonna do when you run out of them?

After a disaster people may need to survive on their own for a
few days. It requires having food, water, medicines and other
supplies on hand for each family member. Experts recommend having a
minimum of three days supply available.
"Local officials and relief workers will be on the scene after a
disaster, but they cannot reach everyone immediately,' Jeff Byard,
state AEMA coordinating officer, said. "It is important to get a
kit, make a kit and be informed of disasters that can occur in
Alabama."
A basic emergency supply kit should include bottle water,
non-perishable food items, a NOAA weather radio, a battery operated
radio, flashlights and first aid supplies. Unique needs of each
family member and pets should also be considered.
Family members may be scattered in different locations when a
disaster occurs. It is important to account for this possibility
and to decide on a pre-designated meeting place in advance.
Know emergency plans at work, daycare, schools and other places
your family frequent. It's important to think ahead and know what
to do in advance.
