One of my sons works at a hardware store, and alerted me to a close-out on LED bulbs for stupid cheap. I bought them all. They still burn out, but if they are cheap enough it's a good deal.
I put together what I called zombie apocalypse supplies in spring 2020 - N95 masks that I had left over from a past wildfire season, bleach, gloves, soap, etc, even some cash. I haven't checked those supplies in quite awhile but I'm thinking I still need to keep some cash on hand in case Russia launches a cyberattack.
Don't keep $100 bills, since if you have to buy something, unscrupulous people may not give you any change. The $100 bill could be the new $20 bill in a really bad situation.
If you get to thinking you’re a person of some influence, try ordering somebody else’s dog around.
