In this MoneyWi$e Episode, we highlight the importance of being prepared for emergencies, especially during National Preparedness Month. Joining us today is Annhall Norris, Extension Specialist for Food Safety and Food Preservation, sharing invaluable insights on how to build an emergency kit without breaking the bank.
We discuss the essential elements of an emergency kit, including the need for non-perishable foods and a reliable water supply. She offers practical tips for utilizing items you already have at home and purchasing supplies over time to ease the financial burden. She also emphasizes the importance of rotating supplies and checking expiration dates.
Additionally, Annhall provides expert advice on choosing the right containers for water storage and the benefits of having a weather radio. We also touch upon the small comforts, like including your favorite sweet treat, to lift spirits during stressful times.
