Flash Alert: Sears in American Fork closing

Sears is closing it's <a href="http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&amp;source=s_q&amp;hl=en&amp;geocode=&amp;q=sears+american+fork,+utah&amp;sll=37.0625,-95.677068&amp;sspn=90.209462,81.035156&amp;ie=UTF8&amp;ll=40.378623,-111.813312&amp;spn=0.044886,0.039568&amp;z=15&amp;iwloc=A">store in American Fork</a>. A third of the store is already empty. I was there last night and it appeared that everything was thirty to sixty percent off. I was able to get bunch of batteries and toilet paper. Their prices are higher than Walmart to begin with so I am not sure how much of a deal it really is, but even saving a little is worth a trip when buying in bulk. Other things I saw while there were tents, canopies, air compressors, tools, and clothing.

Review: Shelf Reliance Cansolidator Pantry

By now I'm sure all of our readers have had time to gawk at the wonderful photos in previous posts showing large shelving units with impressive amounts of canned foods with a nice rotation system built in.  These <a href="http://www.shelfreliance.com/">Shelf Reliance</a> products are favorites of the folks around here.  A wonderful local company delivering something we all love.<img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-1214" title="img_3016" src="/images/uploads/2009/01/img_3016-300x225.jpg" alt="img_3016" width="300" height="225" /> But let's face it.  Not all of us have room for a large shelving unit, or maybe we just cant afford it.  Better yet, maybe you're like me and you have one, but you also really need a way to rotate a few cans that are in your kitchen too.  And as impressive as the rack is, it just doesn't quite match the decor of the kitchen.

<img class="alignright" src="http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/5124BUpG-qL._SL500_AA240_.jpg" alt="" width="240" height="240" />I'm not saying I have the Ultimate Book Collection or even that I have a complete collection of Prepper books, but I do have a decent collection of books on preparedness and Pioneer/Primitive Living (see the photo of my bookshelf) and I've read most of them cover to cover. I'm constantly on the lookout for good prep books and buy one or two a month to read. I love getting referrals to good books - whether they're instructional, reference or fictional (prep based novels) I like having other people tell me what they thought was good/fun/valuable.
