I always see cash listed. Is that because you didn't list toilet paper? If there's no power, the stores will not open. If society collapses, cash can be used to start fires. [/quote]

Oh please. There are plenty of plausible scenarios where people - whether your neighbors or the employees of a store - would take cash for groceries. Including power outages at the store, as they often have enough power to stay minimally open and will need to move perishables.

Everybody online wants to plan for social collapse, but can't seem to imagine a major weather event with severe short-term effects. [/quote]

We had a three day power outage a few years ago. Safeway turned away people because only the freezers were on the backup generators. The tellers can't make change without a machine. [/quote]
