First Aid Supply List

In the event of an emergency you will need to have a large supply of first aid items packed up in a water proof container. It doesn’t matter whether you’re preparing for a hurricane, tornado, snow storm or zombie outbreak. A simple 5 gallon bucket from Home Depot or Lowe’s will give you a nice seal of protection but you do you and use what you feel is best. This is a very extensive list of items but there’s always items that you could envision your family needing, so toss in extras as needed.[Home Depot 5 Gallon Bucket – https://www.homedepot.com/…/The-Home-Depot-5…/100087613]

There are many stores that sell ‘first aid kits” but please be aware that they will not have enough supplies to handle caring for your entire family and are typically missing quite a lot of items from the list below. However, if all you can currently afford is a single first aid kit from CVS/Walgreens, then by all means get your family one. The goal here is to have a basic level and then start adding little bits as you have the income. If you have a Dollar Tree store in your area, be sure to use their website to determine the absolute best price for first aid supplies. Don’t let the Dollar Tree label fool you, as many expensive first aid items are the price they are due to the logo on the front of the box.
