Great ideas. They are beyond the scope of actually acquiring beans, etc.
I talked to Hubby about taking our money from the bank and he is not ready, yet. Meanwhile, I squirrel away a few dollars here and there. Smaller denominations are better. Won’t get far, though.
Regarding Meds: Start getting the meds now. When you get a prescription refill – 90 days. Take out at least 3, more if you can, and save them in a another place. Our pharmacy does not keep good track of how many and when. I managed to accumulate 90 days worth of one medication – above what is being used. I always recycle the older ones into the current bottle and save the new ones. Mine are anti-depressants and thyroid meds, so a prescription change will not really affect me. It might be different for more serious conditions, though.
