[CLOSED] Win a Preppers Survival Kit

Win a Preppers Survival Kit - Well, crazy timing! I have been in contact with the very friendly Andre of preppers.co.nz in regards to their handy survival kits, and he kindly offered to give one away to one of my lovely readers, just as an epic storm is due to hit our small pacific island... I don't know about the rest of you, but I have spent almost the entire day preparing for Cyclone Lusi. All outdoor items are stored and secured. Loaves of bread are being baked, containers filled with water, torch batteries replaced. I only hope I can locate the can opener before the inevitable power outage that will come (always does). The last remaining chore will be to fill our firewood basket, and then I think I am ready for whatever Lusi brings (except for fallen trees - please, please, please let no trees fall on our house or car...). Anyway, one thing I have been thinking about a lot lately is whether or not our family is really prepared for an emergency. Several years ago (you know when), I did actually put together an emergency kit... or at least the beginnings of one. But you know, there are a lot of things you kinda really need, and it seems like maybe more effort than it's worth to go about collecting all those individual items. I didn't really get round to finishing it, and also, there was some kind of leakage and things rusted/grew mould, and basically it's time to start from scratch. So I've been looking into these prepared kits, with all their fancy water purification tablets and food bars and waterproof matches. It just seems much easier to purchase an emergency pack with everything already in it! A pack that you can just grab as you head out the door, you know, if the need arises. Pin on Pinterest So to the point, Preppers put together such survival kits, and just check out this epic list of contents: 12 x 4oz Water Pouches 6 x 400 Calorie Food Bars (2400 calories) 10 Water Purification Tablets - 1 per 1 liter of water Am/Fm Radio with headphones and batteries Rechargeable Squeeze Flashlight 30 hour Emergency Candle 12 hour Green Emergency Glow Stick 5-in-1 Survival Whistle Box of Waterproof Matches Emergency Survival Sleeping Bag 16-20 Hour Body Warmer 2 Person Tube Tent with rope Emergency Poncho with hood 16 Function Knife Leather Palm Work Gloves N95 Respirator Dust Mask - NIOSH approved 50 Feet of Nylon Rope Safety Goggles Sewing Kit 24 Piece Deluxe Hygiene Kit (see website for list of contents) Gaurdian 65 Piece Deluxe First Aid Kit Pencil Playing Cards Infectious Waste Bag All valued at $265NZD.
