Top 10 Survival Items At The Dollar Store Worth Buying

When you bug out where do you bug out to

Can someone tell me how long can I keep bottled water in my emergency bag?thank you.

you need way more water than that..

Bet you can't talk while sitting on your hands, betcha, try it for your next video

Hydrogen peroxide>bleach for wounds and water purification. Rubbing alcohol for sterilization and fire starting. Also, hydrogen peroxide+rubbing alcohol can be weaponized.
Canned food is heavier than ramen but the can has many uses and the food has more nutrients, plus heating ramen requires fuel and produces light, not to mention precious water. Feminine hygiene pads make decent bleeding wound dressings. ChapStick+cotton balls are compact and can be used to start fires or dress wounds. Safety pins and dental floss can be used to stich wounds or clothing or to catch fish or small game or to create perimeter security. Trash bags have thousands of purposes, from shelter to ponchos to raft material. Another multipurpose gem is aluminum foil, which folds down very compact. Bobby pins can be used to pick locks with a little luck, and even used batteries can start a little fire with some foil from gym wrappers, the casings can be used to make fishoolsnor padlock shims, or toss a few of them in a tube sock for an improvised sap. Dollar Tree also carries lightsticks in theparry section. Peanut butter sandwich crackers are an excellent source of calories and protein, and even Crisco has a great many uses. The kitchen section of DT has cheap metal flatware that can be used for defense or hunting, and Tupperware can be buried and hidden, and is waterproof and floats wonderfully. Lastly, the hime decor section has artificial plants that can be used for concealment. The DT hardware section has everything one could dream of.
I know this list is a bit more for a complete SHTF scenario, but my point is that the OP is 100% correct in that there is no point in being frugal when it comes to survival, you might as well start a fire with the cash you saved while staring hungrily at the other survivors, with the hollow eyes of a wealthy madman. 😉

very good video and some great ideas. I love the Dollar Tree for survival items, even though at this point everything is 1.25. The only thing I disagree with is the bleach. Bleach is great for water purification, but the bad thing is liquid bleach does go bad. I would not use bleach that is older than a year, in my opinion. That is why I now keep dry bleach tablets; their shelf life is much higher. I used to use liquid bleach and it works great for survival use, but keeping liquid bleach over extended periods of time and it becomes more harmful that helpful. I'd say change out the bleach every 6 months or go to solid bleach tablets that last much longer.

You can add canned mushrooms or veggies to Your ramen noodles to spice it up some

If needs be you can use a peace of 550 cord or strep of cloth to make a dropper for bleach for your water it works,just dip in your bleach then let drop in your water bottle

You lost me at ramen noodles. They are so high in sodium you will need MORE water than if you ate something else. It also has 0 nutritional value. A waste of space in your bag.

On the bleach, it can also ONLY be regular, original, plain bleach. Other kinds like splashless are not safe for purifying water, etc.

Toilet paper. get the cheap ones. It's better than nothing during a crises.

ARE U RELATED TO THE MACS?

Bottled water from the dollar store is a really bad idea. They broker their products from the cheapest source, it is likely an older product that has not been properly stored. BPA's in bottled water stored in hot conditions are killing us. Dont buy water from the dollar store ever!!!!!!!!!!!

When you’re in that tent in a room with your family remember oxygen 😂

MD Flag. I live in MD. Thanks for your insights

Some suggestions: always check expiration date before buying as the stores are not always good about that. Also, when you get home with band aids or anything with liquid in them (wipes) open one and make sure they work as advertised. I've found some of the cheaper things are dried out or, in the case of band aids, don't stick very long.

I also like Raman noodles but I add some meat and vegetables to them

Panty liners make great bandages over a wound! Kotex pads for larger wounds. Of course you have to wrap over them as well.

they got 72 wet wips in a pack when you go in look thru out the hole store every iles not all stuff is were it should be

1.25$ now but ya i shop there all the time and they got the tuna in a bag that last a long time

Also ramen noodles might not have alot of "vitamins and nutrients" but they have alot of calories. Saying they have no nutritional value is an outright lie. Carbs are energy and nutrients. Do better. Im stopping here because you are spreading falshoods about food which is the most important part of survival.

Reminder. Bleach has a half life of 180 days. So cycle it out along with most things every few months.

quit shaking the item so we can read what it is

I haven't watched the whole video yet but something else people over look is a fire at your home having everything in your home would be devastating.... so don't store everything in one spot

LOL two years later and you have not used a single thing you bought in that store. See ya in another 2 years......

Buy sterno fir heating cans of soup etc

Keep it up 💪👍 bro nice videoSss🧡🧡🤍🤍🤍🖤🖤🖤🖤

If you are Bugging Out, then you can use Ramen and Supplement with wild game and wild edibles.

Ramen noodles, how to make it nutritious? Simply add 1 egg or 1 chili or some garlic or slice of onion. But the best option is to add malunggay leaves (moringa). Ramen noodles with malunggay leaves becomes a complete meal. If you would do research for malunggay. it is actually a wonder vegetable long life span, easy to grow and tons of health benefits.

$1.25

I would add you can buy fish antibiotics online without a prescription

Best place to get Duracell batteries, or Kirkland which I’ve read are the same is Costco. In my opinion batteries are one of those things you shouldn’t skimp on. I use a small good quality flashlight everyday at work that takes one AA battery. I only buy Duracell.

Anything i need ill take it from my lame victim neighbors. 😅

Shoveling coal has talt me bandaids are nice on the chest on two sensitive areas when you're shirt is rubbing you raw from movement

You may not want scented items, whether candles, wipes, deodorant, scents attract at least skunks if not bears and littler animals too. Snakes. Especially, if in a tent.

There is nothing stopping you from putting chicken, broccoli, beans, corn in the noodles. They taste good and break up monotomy.

Don't 4get dead time on bleach.

Actually scented could help masking some food odors ....to hide you have food. Can go both way.

Joe Manchin and his family are all corrupt.

I got a battery powered pump from Lowes and adjustBle sprayer to use for shower head. At Walmart i got white 50 foot water hose to connect it all up. I have 4 5 gallon water jugs i put 2 in house 1 by sink 1 by bathtub. The other 2 jugs i put in trunk of car. I go to 1 of 3 pure water springs within 3 miles of home . I keep jugs in trunk n pump spring water to fill jugs. I then go home n pump water from jugs in trunk thru open window to fill water jugs n house. So i dont have to carry them. Then when washing hands or dishes or shower or flush i just turn on pump. Rinse n repeat. So no water bill saves $42 a month or over $500 year. I put to mortgage principal.

The worst allergy and I swell up is MSG, talk about trying to stock food when it makes you swell up and need an epi pen. Put epi pens in your bug out bag.

The Scent could also be Smell by Passerbys. Uncented are best.
Dollar Tree has a Goos Variety of items.

The dollar tree has a great assortment of bath soap that’s natural without the harsh chemicals

Great ideas. But everything is 1.25 now

Alcohol and peroxide

You can buy 40 bottles of water for less than $5

Wow , now batteries ? Good greif ... The candles and medicines are great dollar store ideas , wet wipes are great as well . Anybody thats rucked it or done recon knows hygiene is extremely important after 3 days . Cheap ziplocks work well !! Very important to have as well . Ill give ya a B+ like my opinion matters ... But ill say this ...never depend on a cheap lighter . Bic is by far the best bang for your buck . It wont let you dwn either

Ramen , smh , never eat that salty garbage unless you have tons of water .
