As most of you know, food storage is very high on my priority list. I’m hoping that I can help you get enthused about stocking up your food resources, too. My theory about food storage is that you are only as prepared as your neighbor. I would never let anyone go away hungry.  If we are all prepared as we have been instructed to be, then we would be a help to our neighbors and not be a burden in times of need. “… if ye are prepared ye shall not fear.”

I would like start some new ideas that will hopefully help you see how EASY, FUN and AFFORDABLE building your food storage can be. One ideas is the “$10.00 Will Do It” club.

Each week I will recommend very specific storage items that you will be able to buy for your food storage that will cost no more than $10.00 (or really close to it).

Now, by no means is this the only way that you should build up your food storage, but it will help you to get started. Or, if you have already started, it will help you increase your storage.

This weeks suggestion:
25 lbs. of white rice for $5.49 or 25 lbs. of sticky rice $5.99
Ramen Chicken soup - 36 count for $3.69

I started the $10.00 Will Do It club back in 2002 when I was given a church calling to help my neighbors build their food storage and get their families better prepared. I wanted to show people how easy it was to build their food storage one or two items at a time and that they didn’t have to go into the poor house in order to get prepared.

I am passing along the information to you that I shared with them but I am not going to update the prices on the products. Food prices have increased since 2002 and depending on where you live geographically, the prices may fluctuate a bit from region to region.

This information is meant as a vehicle to show you how easy it can be to start building your food storage with a fairly small amount of money — $10.00 a week or every two weeks, whichever you can afford.

The most important part is that you get started, no matter what amount of money you set aside each month. Just make sure that you aactivelly work towards getting your food storage built up. After you get started, you will find that it will get easier and easier — so get started and go buy a case of something!
