Prep your home for emergencies

September 17, 2024

Preparing for emergencies isn’t exactly a blast, but boy, will you be thankful if you ever need to use that gear. It’s all about peace of mind.

• Flashlights (25% off) and batteries are both musts.
• A battery-powered or hand-crank radio is perfect in case there’s no cell signal.
• Don’t forget a first-aid kit … which you should already own, really.
• Grab a manual can opener (20% off) if yours is electric.
• Make sure you have a cooler and lots of ice packs. I keep some in the freezer all the time.
• I like to keep around a solar charger, too. Click the coupon for an extra 10% off.
