Don’t use traditional metal lids, as they can rust, and perhaps set off a metal detector. Get the plastic ones.

You don't know me, I'll probably need a metal detector to find it later.

Vacuum seal cash before storing it somewhere.

Sounds good.

One thing I have been meaning to mention, and granted it's a bit extreme, is for those that grow gardens. Get your seeds and maybe more than usual, if you have not. Who knows what nurseries will have, but if this goes on a while the same people that are hoarding flour having never made a loaf a bread in their lives are going to be raiding nurseries and seeds thinking they're going to grow a garden.

Vacuum seal cash before storing it somewhere.

vacuum seal it in five hundred or thousand dollar increments, in 100's and keep a few sets of small bills in 20's 5's 10's and singles.
remember not to withdraw it in fixed amounts or at set intervals so as not to trigger any government oversight and possible imprisonment for removing YOUR money from YOUR account in a way THEY don't approve.
i'd keep it accessible enough to grab as you bail from the fire, maybe the gun safe in a seperate container.
maybe the basement under the floor. very safe from fires.

The nurseries are shut down along with everything else.

Not the one I go to, it's attached to the grocery store, which I'm going to tomorrow morning.

Just one of the many advantages of being Amish.

Dollar Tree has seed packets 4 for $1. It's pretty darn hard to find yeast right now, though.

In these troubling times, everyone still has a sense of humor.

You haven't worked the toilet paper aisle lately.

Starting to get tense...

Gov officials saying not to hoard food, only buy a couple of weeks worth. But Trump says this could go on for months. Meanwhile, the only defense medically fragile people have is to hunker down while it burns itself off. Don't buy food?

I posted this elsewhere, but I'll do it here too.

If anyone in the area wants to get stocked up you can go with me to the restaurant supply store and use my paid membership so you can lower prices. If stocking up, it's significantly lower.

We were just talking about checking the place out. Might have to consider the offer. How much does a paid membership save on items?
