Ive mentioned in the past that when survivalists die, the yard sales tend to be quite interesting. So, what does it look like when a well-financed prepper dies and all his storage food goes on the block? Well, alot like this:
I’ve been prepping for almost forty years and this is the most storage food I’ve ever scene in one place.
There were literally thousands of buckets of cornmeal, oatmeal, roled oats, wheat, rice, barley, beans, tvp, soup mix, etc, etc. And thats on top of the hundreds of thousands of rounds of ammunition, the dozens of AR rifles, primers, powder, bullets, all the mags, parts kits, armour plates, toiletries, and other supplies. The story I heard from two different people was that this guy worked for one of the large supermarkets in his town and decided he was personally going undertake the task or prepping for his enter church/town (two different storeis…one said church, one said town.)
So, if youre local in the Bitterroot Valley, head over to Trader Bros and score yourself some long=term storage food at giveaway prices. I was given to understand they are still not done transporting it all in. Opportunity here, m’friends.
Yeah, but can you turn any of those buckets o’food into gasoline?
That’s what i want to know…
Sad that he didn’t have a group that he could of willed it too…That’s like most preppers though very isolated and atomized…Sad That…I will let my Tribe know see if they need to top off anything…
I’ve always wondered what will happen to all of our ‘stuff’ when we go to that great bunker in the sky. A while back, my partner and I were able to score a gaggle of firearms from an estate, the gentleman’s two sons wanted nothing to do with all the fine items in their father’s collection. Bought the collection as a whole at an average price of $190 per firearm, this included a Colt Gold cup and a BAR.
So, it looks like the family will just sell it all off for pennies on the dollar, sad.
“…that great bunker in the sky”. I like that…gonna have to remember that one.
DAM.. Are there any pics of his home /property. That must be amazing also.
Saw a quote from Jamie Dimond today. ” Forget Bit Coin. American needs to be stockpiling bullets. Lots and lots if bullets.”.
What? reference please…….or r u just messing’ with us?
A quoted from JP Morgan is close to that. H/T to today’s tip of the day via SurvivalBlog.com
Damn I love Trader Brother’s. Got an ELCAN there for $350.
Never go grocery shopping hungry
Or on a first date while horny
Buy it all.
Do the math. You are either in or out. Chance of a lifetime?
A little off topic, but I noticed this and thought you might be interested:
A fan of SurvivalBlog is one of the organizers of a real estate raffle for a 32-acre parcel of waterfront land in northwest Montana that looks quite retreat-worthy. I generally shy away from raffles and any sort of games of chance. But because this raffle will benefit a good cause (an animal shelter in that part of Montana), and because the property would be quite suitable for building a retreat, I decided to give this fundraiser some publicity in SurvivalBlog. The raffle ends on July 31, 2025. For details, see: DreamPropertyRaffle.org.
Yes, Jamie Diamond did say that. I don’t think it was in the context we in the prepper community to would take it, the comment was more in the collective sense. Here is a link to one of dozens of places discussing the quote:
