Stockpile Case Study
What would you do to meet your family’s needs?
What if the store you needed to be open at the time you needed something, that was in your basement? You wouldn’t have to get the keys, go out to the car, and hope the store is still open.

I also keep paper and plastic and cleaning separate as well. Then I break grocery down to canned, baking, snacks, drinks, dairy, meat and frozen.
