GROUP BUY Brexit Signals Panic Buying, Storage Food Shortages - Sale Discounts Still in Place

"Early" warning: You would be well advised to make sure your household preps are ready for the falling dominoes now starting to cascade.

As we recently advised our club members, HUGE storage food orders have been piling up this month, placed by individuals with finances and insight into what is coming. We may very well set an all-time record for foods sales volume--and that says a lot.


Note that we came to that conclusion even before the UK BREXIT vote results. We are today seeing of course another growing surge in orders coming in--so we are now expecting panic buying to become widespread and long-term. We've experienced similar situations thru the years and this may be the granddaddy of them all.

Bottom line--we are now forecasting that we (and all storage food dealers and manufacturers) will be seeing storage food shortages very soon. As of today, the warehouses around the US remain fairly well-stocked. Get your orders in. It doesn't take very long for the limited capacity of the food storage industry to become overwhelmed.


Safecastle is keeping our very steep current discounts in place while we can (thru the next week at least).


Here are a few of the most popular sale items moving fast:

I recently stumbled on a box of Mountain House freeze dried pouches. Purchased in 2008, they expired last year!

They were stored in a cool, dark place. Would they still be any good?

I fully expect that they are good and will be good for a long time yet if you keep them stored well. Fact is, MH pouches have tested out to have a shelf life of 25 years. They are now officially rated at 12 years, bumped up from 7 years a few years ago. But again, 25 years can be expected. MH made the decision to not promote a longer pouch shelf life in order to differentiate from the can shelf life (which greatly exceeds the 25 years they conservatively promote).

Our suppliers have already run out of three different foods (Mountain House Diced Cinnamon Apples, Future Essentials Garden Crackers, and Surplus Pasteurized Eggs).

That's handy; I found four pouches with expiration dates OF 2007. It's good to know they're that long-lived.

Brexit is one big, fat domino delivering some serious momentum around the world. Hard to see how TPTB would be able to dig in and stop what has started.

Of course it's going to get way ugly ... but in time, God willing, we'll get this thing headed back in the right direction.

There's a lot of info out there today about what comes next. This is one article I think at least hints at the scope and longer-term ramifications that we really need to be conscious of:

BREMMER: Brexit is the world's most significant political risk since the Cuban Missile Crisis

I don't intend to turn this into a Brexit thread per se, but to me this all about the culture ... nationalism, self interest, several steps back from the globalism and progressive movement of the last few decades.

So politically and culturally, we are now headed back in time for what it's worth ... and yep--I am feeling pretty good about it even though it's going to be causing pain for some time.

Latest: Depending on certain definitions, today is already the largest single day in our company's history in sales. It is all storage food going out the door ... in huge quantities.

Hi, Tried to send you a PM, but your mailbox is full

I am on the website and am making a purchase, I have a question about a few items.

Bega cheese... It says it stores indefinitely if stored properly. Our pantry is a large bedroom that is kept year round at 70 degrees. Would the cheese last in this environment?

Freeze dried hamburger patties...are they good? Are the really worth all that money?

Life straws, have you ever tried one? What does a puddle of rain water taste like through them? Do they expire if unopened?

If anyone else can answer these questions, I appreciate it.

Bega cheese... It says it stores indefinitely if stored properly. Our pantry is a large bedroom that is kept year round at 70 degrees. Would the cheese last in this environment? That is a darn near perfect environment.

Freeze dried hamburger patties...are they good? Are the really worth all that money? We have had lots of feedback on these that they are excellent ... and many repeat buyers. I guess you have to decide if it is worth the money to have these on hand, but each re-hydrated burger will weigh about a quarter pound ... so each can will get you 3 to 4 pounds of meat.

Life straws, have you ever tried one? What does a puddle of rain water taste like through them? Do they expire if unopened? Lifestraws do not expire. A puddle of rainwater will taste fine.

If anyone else can answer these questions, I appreciate it.
