Congratulations brother! That's a sweet milestone. You've definitely earned it.
Thank you so much brother. You want to enter the pool with a survival tip as well man? Please be my guest brother. 😀
You're welcome. I will sit this one out. Other people should benefit from your generosity. Thanks though.
Thanks brother. You're a good man! If you change your mind, let me know! : )
Sir, I'd like to officially enter your contest, Sir!
Survival tip- You're in a hurry, forget your EDC bag, jump in your truck, cruise on down the dirt road, PEW freaking PEW, get shot in the the arm, o no nothing here but your wife's super absorbent tampon in the glove box for emergencies ( technically this is one), you just grab that bad girl, rip her open and plug her in that hole. BOOM-good to go for 3-5 hours depending on the flow 👍🏻 (Or till you get your bag)!
YOUR WELCOME!!!
Tampons- not just for the ladies!
Sanitary napkins are great preps as well! I think it was @resistancemedic who showed how to do an improvised Israeli-style compression bandage using sanitary napkins but I may be wrong.
O yes I have a bunch of those stored up just in case 😊
Good! They are great for bandages. After all, they were made for absorbency!
Thank you very much for the entry! And yes tampons are a great emergency item! : )
Congratulations on the followers! What a great milestone! You absolutely deserve it!!
My tip:
Take care of yourself first and foremost! Like they say on the airplane "please administer your oxygen mask to yourself first". If you are not taken care of, especially if you are the most skilled in survival, you will not be able to help others to the best of your ability.
@farmstead MOST EXCELLENT ADVICE!
Thank you! :)
You are welcome!
Thank you so much! Great tip as well! Take care of yourself first! Especially if you a big asset to the team! : )
I think it's a big one. People even forget about it without being in a survival situation! I notice this in parents especially! I also have to remind my husband to take care of himself because he is the major breadwinner in our household.
Yea. I get that from my wife all the time, Lol. "Stop stressing you're gonna have a heart attack!" Haha. But a very solid point! : )
I am officially entering your 500th follower contest! Congrats! Hope to be like you when I grow up!

Survival tip- learn how to read a real compass. Most people follow the direction of a smart phone and in some cases the phone may not be with you or usable.
Learn to look for moss on trees or the sun rise and set direction.
Thank you! : ) And thank you for the great tip!
Congrats you bragger lol! I officially enter the contest.
Survival tip: If you have a cavity, dry socket or even just a tooth ache you can use clove oil to help with the pain. Now, make sure you are using FOOD GRADE oils and not cheaper theraputic or aroma therapy oils. For dry socket and cavities take a clean piece of cotton (cotton ball) and put a small amount of clove oil on it, do not drench it. Then pack the cavity or dry socket with the cotton. This will relieve pain for both. In the case of the dry socket this will actually allow for the healing to occur.
Lol. Thanks brother! Awesome tip!
I am entering this contest, my survival tip is to learn the herbs in your area and how to use them for medicine!
Thank you for the tip! : )
Hello Sir, officially entering in your contest.
Survival tip : if you ever get a tight stomach, just mix a lemon and quite good amount of salt, make sure the solution is strong enough in its content of lemon and salt, you will all clear out within ten minutes and yeah no side effects.
EAsy peasyyy :p
Thank you for the tip! And also for following! : )
Congrats on 500!
Tip: Keep powdered cayenne pepper handy at all times. It is a great blood clotting agent for small and largish wounds, AND it's an antiseptic too! Contrary to what people will tell you, it burns like a mo-fo at first, but it stops bleeding fast.
Thank you so much! This is a great tip also! : )
Upvoted, resteemed and I want in the contest! Here is my survival tip: Remember that this is survival NOT camping. Stack the odds in your favor. Example: It's great to have the knowledge and experience on how to create a friction fire, but pack a torch lighter in your kits. 😉
Thank you Oily! Very good tip! Can't go wrong with the torch! : )
I am sure you realized what I was saying....stack the odds in your favor. Be smart about your preps so you don't make things harder on yourself than it has to be. Gain the skills but also prep the easier way. You have the skills should those preps be taken or lost, but you have the simple way to exert less calories/time/energy. ;)
I was picking up what you were pttin down. : ) Prepping your brain is the biggest part of prepping! ; )
Lol! Just be sure to lift with your legs and not your back! haha!
OOOOOhhh. So that's how you're supposed to do it! Lol : P
Lol!
BTW: CONGRATULATIONS on the subs!
Thank you Oily! : )
Of course! 😁
