what the hell is the "WAWKI" part of the end of the world
Seeds! Seeds! Seeds! Thiese will probably be worth their weight on gold.

I seen a bumper sticker aimed at tree huggers that said.
If you have a problem with me cutting down trees,
Try wipping you azz with plastic.
Ok thanks. and I feel fine
All great suggestions folks.
Remember - the name of the game is to identify items that will retain their value today (i.e., can be sold readily for cash) as well as considered valuable in a major SHTF event. While I love TP and twinkies just like the rest of you, I might have a hard time moving 'em if I wanted to sell a few cases tomorrow: "Hey, want to buy my TP?" would probably get me funny looks in the classifieds. Makes us all think a little harder about how we prep for any event if we're on a budget.
Here's a question - would you stock a few inexpensive but reliable used guns - like a Ruger P series 9mm or a few Ruger 10/22s? Don't these tend to bottom out on price? Or would you stay away from firearms, and if so, for what reason?
More ideas:
High quality, high demand knives - buy used and hold
Optics -binoculars, minoculars
Like new surplus clothing - gotta love those BDUs for $16
High quality boots that won't fall apart
Good watch with extra batteries
Reading and used prescription glasses - store them in an ammo can
Common gun parts - like AR-15 repair all kits
Small specialty livestock - meat rabbits, etc. - worth the time and effort?
I really like the seeds idea.
