Survival kit

What is it you are trying to "survive?"

Before you buy anything, do some reading on this board. You'll likely find you can build a better kit, tailored to your needs and preferences, that will help you in many more situations, less expensively than a pre-made kit. You will learn what everyday carry (EDC), bug-out bag (BOB), get-home bag (GHB), and INCH are. You will also find out what skills are necessary, regardless of the situation. Gear is nice, but skills and knowledge are far more important (and they weigh less, generally cost less, and can't get used up/destroyed/lost).

There is a ton of good information here. The stickies on the top of the different forums have especially important information.

It is good to determine what it is you need and why before you spend money. One of the most important things to remember is the hum-drum everyday kinds of things (broken water main (no running water)? flat tire? dead battery? etc.) and the things that happen frequently/every year in your location are the most important things to prepare for (tornado? flooding? blizzard? forest/grass fire? etc.). The End Of The World As We Know It (TEOTWAWKI) is far less likely to happen.
