I thought this thread was already started but either I SUCK at using the "Search" function or it was lost in the great 2010 debacle.

Lists of items for a BOB/BIB or some things one should have laying around the house to be prepared. No scenario needed or "what ifs" unless you so desire.

i.e.: Civil unrest, natural disaster, etc

Go:

Cotton balls
Small sewing kit
small pack knife
Plastic bags
paracord



Obviously: food and ammo
