Black Friday Deals for Preppers and Survivalists

Black Friday is a golden opportunity for preppers to stock up on vital gear and supplies while saving money. If you’ve been waiting to enhance your readiness, this shopping season offers discounts on essentials. Below are key categories to guide your purchases, with detailed suggestions to maximize your preparedness.

Food and Water Supplies

Stock up on long-term food storage like freeze-dried meals or MREs from brands like Mountain House or ReadyWise. Water filtration systems, such as LifeStraw or Berkey filters, are often discounted, as are tools for food preservation like dehydrators and vacuum sealers.

Emergency Tools and Gear

Deals abound on multi-tools and knives from brands like Leatherman or Gerber, essential for versatile use. Flashlights, headlamps, and comprehensive first-aid kits are also worth adding to your preparedness kit during sales.

Power and Energy Solutions

Look for portable solar panels from Goal Zero or Jackery, power banks, and compact gas or solar-powered generators. Don’t forget rechargeable batteries and chargers to keep your devices running during emergencies.

Shelter and Protection

Camping gear, including tents and sleeping bags, can double as survival essentials and often come with steep discounts. Winter clothing, like thermal layers and gloves, and home security tools such as cameras or motion detectors are also valuable investments.

Communication and Navigation

Two-way radios from Baofeng or Midland and emergency radios with solar or crank power keep you informed in a crisis. GPS devices with offline navigation capabilities are excellent for outdoor or grid-down scenarios.
