Building a 3 Month Supply using Case Lot Sales

Inevitably, each year in the weeks preceding the <a href="http://www.mormon.org">LDS</a> General Conference sessions in April and October grocery stores in Utah begin their Case Lot sales. In case you aren't familiar with the term, a Case Lot sale is a sale that allows you to purchase food (and other) items at a discount from a regular grocery store. The only catch is that you need to buy them a case at a time.

Introducing Goal 0 solar power products

<a href="/images/uploads/2011/03/Goal0.jpg"><img class="alignright size-full wp-image-3623" title="Goal0" src="/images/uploads/2011/03/Goal0.jpg" alt="" width="215" height="50" /></a><br /> Here at UtahPreppers we try to keep an eye on prepping topics, trends and products from all over the country and often the world. Even though we try to keep a global focus we still like finding and supporting local businesses that fit into the prepping niche. We recently met up with a Bluffdale company to take a look at some of their innovative solar products.

Post Japan Earthquake Notes
Earthquake Family Preparedness

Post Japan Earthquake Notes

I'm posting in an email that was forwarded to me, second hand from the source.  The email is from a lady who's family is currently stationed in Japan, and relates their experiences with the earthquake.  What I like best in this is her own analysis on her preparedness level, and what she wishes she could do better.

Saving Money By Storing Food Article

Looking back on my list of things that I've "meant to blog" for a long time, I found a link I needed to share.  A friend of mine, and longtime follower of this blog, Erin McNew wrote an article for Yahoo's associated content site about food storage.  I will of course take this chance to tease her for cheating on me, and posting to a different site, especially one that won't allow for me to repost the content.  However I may tease though, It's a great article written to explain to people how storing food is a sensible way to save money.  Something that most "preppers" understand, especially people usually interested in this blog.  However oftentimes people who wouldn't normally figure themselves to be preppers, can still at least get back to some of the basics of previous generations.

Potassium Iodide (KI) and How to Protect Yourself From Radiation Poisoning

<a href="/images/uploads/2011/03/IMG_2430.jpg"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-3568" title="IMG_2430" src="/images/uploads/2011/03/IMG_2430-225x300.jpg" alt="" width="225" height="300" /></a>With the current potential nuclear crisis in Japan, I have been inundated with questions about<a href="http://www.utahpreppers.com/2008/11/preparing-for-a-nuclear-attack-determining-your-scenario/"> Fallout Survival</a>, <a href="http://www.utahpreppers.com/2008/11/preparing-for-a-nuclear-attack-some-background/">Nuclear Preparedness</a>,<a href="http://www.utahpreppers.com/2009/06/the-master-evacuation-kit-list"> General Preparedness</a> and Potassium Iodide among many other things.  I realized that while a lot of these things are covered on Utah Preppers, Potassium Iodide is kind of glossed over.  This post is my answer to all those questions and should be a definitive post on KI or Potassium Iodide.  Please note: at this time, due to the crisis in Japan, KI is <strong><em>Sold Out </em></strong>pretty much everywhere.
