You never know what\u2019s going to happen. But, lately, I\u2019ve had so many questions from those I know that have never been interested in preparedness before, asking how they can help themselves out on the cheap because they honestly \u201cfeel\u201d like something is coming.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

You never know what\u2019s going to happen. But, lately, I\u2019ve had so many questions from those I know that have never been interested in preparedness before, asking how they can help themselves out on the cheap because they honestly \u201cfeel\u201d like something is coming.<\/p>\n

Again, if you feel like something is coming, you are not alone,<\/a>\u00a0and don\u2019t classify yourself as crazy! In fact,t it is never crazy to be prepared for an emergency. If you want to start preparing now, there is never a better time, so don\u2019t put it off.\u00a0 Because of that, these are a few frugal prepping tips I have followed to stock up on when funds are tight.<\/p>\n

1. Go to the Dollar Store<\/strong>\u00a0\u2013 It doesn\u2019t matter if you have a Dollar Tree, Dollar General, or a Family Dollar; these stores are excellent resources for preppers on a budget. We wrote an article on\u00a030 frugal prepping items<\/a>\u00a0you can get at the Dollar store, but you can also look for mini sewing kits, batteries, packed shelf-stable foods, canned foods, and soaps. I also often scout for laundry detergent, bottled water, and canning jars as well. If they have socks or deodorant, it never hurts to grab some of those either. (I suggest aluminum-free deodorant, but use your own judgment on this one.) The best tip I can give to new preppers who are on a budget is to go to your local dollar store.<\/p>\n
