JJ, the stuff you said may not apply to a "get out of dodge" 3 day thing but it IS a VERY valid consideration and I for one DO think it belongs here. Hygiene, specifically your mouth and wounds are very important. And let's not forget the reason for the post, is POSSIBLE long term. Face facts, IF it goes down the Gumment is NOT going to respond fast enough to help a lot of folks, and SOME folks it won't get to at all. Even though we are talking about a GET OUT OF DODGE, grab and go package here, a lot of the items will be used in the long term because hopefully they WON'T be needed in the short run.

44Fred, pooling "resources" is the problem, they don't have any resources.
Thanks JJ, I hadn't thought about that. I was so tuned into a GRAB AND GO concept that I totally overlooked the long term even though I have considered it. How come no one has mentioned TP! Or sanitary napkins. Besides their obvious uses they are a multi-task capable item.

It is four days and counting.

I got TP and large wipes in my bag. I did mention the wipes, but thought the TP was a no brainer.

Cleaning supplies have been miniaturized. These weigh next to nothing and take up as much room as a box of matches. Trek and Travel soaps come in strip dispensers like Listerine strips. ![[Linked Image from seatosummit.com]](http://www.seatosummit.com/images/enlarged/ttsoap.jpg)

Never heard of those things. Wonder if Wally World has them? Oh and sometimes the obvious is forgotten, because we always have it without thinking about it until we run out. And the three corn cob thing (two red and one white) takes up a lot of room! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

While trying to research low sodium freeze dried foods I came across a website for a major brand that will allow you to make CC payments and they will ship according to your payments/schedules. If interested PM me and I'll give ya the link.
