emergency go bags :: emergency supplies {giveaway}

Posted on by Carinn

When looking at suggestions on what to do for your family to prepare for any disaster or emergency you will notice that the standard recommendations include a 3 day supply of food.

When my family first started looking to store this amount of food we went grocery shopping at our favorite big box store. Keeping enough non-perishable food on hand to feed your family for breakfast, lunch & dinner for 3 days can take up a LOT of space.

After throwing out a bunch of food because it had expired (kinda like just flushing cash down the toilet) we decided to look emergency food supplies.

There are a lot of options for emergency food supplies, but the best ones we found were freeze dried and dehydrated.  These have longer shelf lives (up to 25 years!) and take up minimal space without having to be constantly rotated.

Emergency Go Bags carries some great options from Wise Foods. We tried out their Savory Stroganoff and Chicken Alfredo pouches. The Stroganoff was a BIG hit with my family, so much so that even the 4-year-old gobbled hers up!

If you’re looking to try some of these options and are a little hesitant about where to start I’d suggest trying one of their Cook In The Pouch – 72 Hour Meal Kits.  This is a great way to sample a wide variety of their food options without having to make a large financial decision.

You may have remembered Emergency Go Bags from earlier this summer when I shared their Guardian Elite 2 Person Survival Kit (original post here).   If you want to start out on a smaller scale with an emergency kit bag check out their Survival Pal Kit.

The Survival Pal Kit is compact and neatly packed into a durable waterproof cooler.  Perfect for keeping in your car or at the office. Among the gear included is 36-piece first aid kit as well as water and food supplies.

Survival Pal Kit :: $34.97

  7. Wow, so many options it is actually hard to decide. We have a large family so it would probably take several of anything. I love the idea of a 72 Hour Food Storage Kit.

  14. I’d like the 72 hour food storage kit. Although I do worry about water so maybe some of their emergency water filters would be a good place to start!

  19. i would like the car emergency kit. a must have in northern michigan for the winter months. Thanks for the great giveaway!

  22. The solar kit is awesome but food and water storage are key. There are SO many products on the website that would be so useful! Thanks for the chance! 🙂

  26. I’d get the Emergency Food and Water.Also the Emergency Flashlight and Radio.Thanks for this really awesome giveaway! 🙂

  29. I think their Essentials Survival Pack w/ Long Term Food Storage would be a good place to start emergency preparedness.

  31. I want an emergency Dome! Holy cow! I have been begging my hubby to build a small cabin in our back 40 just in case. We could always use it as a guest house in the mean time. The Dome would be the ultimate guest house and emergency shelter!

  35. I like the Car Emergency kits! Would love to have the ER 4 Person Survival kit for peace of mind.

    Thanks!
