Some people who want to start prepping often don’t get started because of fear, thinking that they need to invest a lot of time and money into their preps.
However, becoming a prepper doesn’t have to break the bank. With a bit of creativity and hard work, you can get started without needing to spend too much. (h/t to TheBugOutBagGuide.com)
There are several things you can do to save money as a beginner prepper.
Remember that when it comes to prepping, looks aren’t the most important. To become a true prepper, you don’t need the latest and the most expensive gear.
Before SHTF, make sure that you have the preps you need to help your family survive an emergency, like a natural disaster. With that in mind, you can save money on your preps by repurposing things in your home, scavenging for supplies and visiting garage sales or flea markets.
First, check around your house and think of simple ways to repurpose old items that you don’t use anymore.
Here are some tips on repurposing items around your homestead:
Even if disaster doesn’t strike, you can scavenge for useful items. The U.S. has become a disposable society and people often throw good things away all the time.
Find out the garbage collector’s schedule and drive around the neighborhoods before he can get there. Ask for permission to avoid any trouble and check what people have set out and think about how you can use or reuse it. (Related: Prepping basics: How to scavenge and forage for supplies after SHTF.)
Set aside time to browse and look for good deals at garage sales and flea markets. If you look hard enough, you’ll be amazed at what you can find at these events.
You may find canning jars, candles that you can melt down to turn into survival candles and other useful prepping supplies.
You can also find great deals on useful bug-out equipment. Keep an eye out for camping equipment. Most garage sales offer great deals on things like tents, sleeping bags and other camping gear for a cheaper price than what you normally pay for at the store.
The Health Ranger Store is committed to helping you prepare for any emergency. That’s why we’re proud to introduce affordable supplies for your prepping stockpile such as a variety of freeze-dried food and food supply buckets.
