I never thought about going to Dollar Tree for my prepper pantry. Thank you! Don't mind the people who stare at you. Act like they're not there. You are providing essential information. ❤
Just stare back at them,that will stop the staring.
I just started prepping a few weeks ago. It's been slow going due to financial reasons but I'm watching videos like yours to get good ideas. Thank you.
That's right folks clean out them closets cause y'all really only need so much clothes and junk, plus clothes just don't taste as good as food 😜 we've converted both bedroom closets into pantry space and live out of a decent size dresser each. You can find spaces for things, underneath the beds in plastic totes is one of the ways I store long term foods. I make it work for us and y'all can too! God bless you and yours!
Another great tip is to have activity books, reading books, games, and etc ready for when electronics die.
Medical supplies are a necessary stockpile as they predict shortages
Yes, Dollar tree is a great resource for prepping. I know a lady from Chile who has lived through multiple earthquakes and she says when you go through a natural disaster the last thing you want to do is cook. So having some ready to eat options like you showed is a great idea!
Those small plastic bins are great for keeping small stuff all together,, nice and neat...Love them.😉
Something is better than nothing - I LOVE your philosophy! Thank you!
I love that you buy two of most things. I found that was the easiest way to start my stockpile. Buying multiples on sale also helps keep costs down and helps you rotate through items your family uses often. Having a stocked pantry is so nice after a busy day and you don’t want to go shopping! Just remember to replace what you use 😊
I've been prepping for years & I have to say, you really did a great job on this video to help people who are new to this!!
I can't tell you how many times my pantry has helped us through emergencies. Job loss, husband injured...out of work 2 mo....storms...power out 2 weeks. Out of work at Christmas. Husband worked construction. So many times our pantry saw us through. And I didn't have to worry about...how I was going to feed my small children. It was such a stress reliever..when you are already going through hard times. I started with using one small cabinet and a large box. And kept putting in sale items. Or anything I could spare before my next shopping trip.😊
Agree with your observation that small packages are often a great way to get started with something over having nothing.
Under the bed boxes are a great place to store items. You just have to check the height of your box with the height of your under bed clearance. Walmart carries these. We live in a hot climate and can’t store most foods in the garage. Thanks for the inspiration.
You can always raise your bed with bed risers. Some people even ditch the frame and box springs and put their mattress directly on top of about 12 buckets.
My husband was in a horrible accident and was out of work for 6 months. Because I had stored up quite a bit of food our family of 6 at that time survived just fine. We only had to but perishables. Since then I try to keep a years worth. Great video. Blessings!!
Very informative. Thank you.
Glad it was helpful!
Not a beginner, but I reallly enjoyed this video!! Thanks!!
You are so welcome!
I know people that pronounce the L in salmon, but the L is silent. Who cares. Great ideas!! Thanks for sharing😊
The Spaghettios, ravioli, things like that, are really useful for children, because it puts a bit of normalcy back into their life, especially during an emergency. Kids can be picky, and though you might be able to get by on rice and beans and sardines, kids most likely won’t be happy. The cans may take a little more space up, but it’s worth it. Don’t forget candy, either. It can also provide comfort, and a little boost when needed.
You’re doing a great job! Very helpful and informative. Don’t get nervous!!! Thank you for going in there for us!
I enjoyed this video--I think it’s great that you are trying to reach those people who might be reluctant to start prepping because they don’t know where to start. Thanks Tamara!
Covid lockdowns was a perfect example why I prep. My family was not affected by the lockdowns. We had plenty of everything including toilet paper and we didn't have to worry about when we could go to the grocery store or possibly get sick from exposure. Plus, I was able to give stuff to my parents, his parents and my great uncle to keep them supplied. I will always prep for "just in case."
Exactly!
Add those vieeney 😉 to that spaghetti O's and stretch that out for a better protein meal.
Something that's important to keep on hand and that Dollar Tree has is at least one or two pairs of rubber gloves. I found out after hurricanes Laura and Delta how important they were for clean up. Bleach, disposable rags, even a plastic bucket and sponge....all of these are at the store and are so useful after a weather-related event. All can be stored in the bucket.
I admire what you are teaching here. Very educational. Thank you.
Yes I would like to see more Dollar Tree videos.
This is a very smart video. You are a very sensible common sense young woman.
Thank you for your kind words ❤️
Don't forget the underbed storage. Dollar tree has some of those
You did a great job! Im glad you, and others, realize how important it is to stock up for long term.
That was some great ideas!!
Thank you from California for your time and input!
Thank you. Been studying peppers but I don't have a bunch of money so this was awesome!
I say vienny sausage too! You can make a homemade shampoo with coconut milk and aloe vera gel! Ain't no shame in being and talking country!
Great tips! Thank you
I have a larger tote in my living room full of toiletries, I use it next to my sofa for a little table 😆. I recently purchased a sterilite 4 drawer dresser for vitamin medicine bandages and such and an emergency drawer with stuff you might want on hand in case of a medical emergency. Batteries of ALL sizes are a must have. Also consider stocking up on light bulbs, just had a few go out and luckily, what I didn't have, I was able to get at the store. Just remember folks you can do this a few budgeted dollars at a time. Replace what you use and just a couple items per trip and you'll have a great pantry to shop from for meals.
I appreciate that you shared prepping means different things to different people.
Tamara
Wonderful video. Great information. I love dollar tree items.
Hi Tamara. Great video! I love the idea of storing small
Items in the totes! This was so thoughtful and helpful. Thanks for all your excellent tips and advice.
🤗💕
If I could give you a 1000 thumbs up on this video -I would for sure. So many are getting overwhelmed, hope your calm voice and common sense help those that need it. Till next time, keep them coming I'll be here for it all! Early Happy Easter to you and yours.
I am one of those ….Tiny home dweller. 🏙️
We live in the city in an Apartment. Not much space, but love to have things on hand. We are in earthquake country. Being prepared is a must. Thanks for sharing.
I agree the smaller options really give me options to have what we need. Not all of us can shop at Sam’s for large quantities.
Thanks 😊 This should really help people.
🦋Helpful info
Thanks
Glad it was helpful!
Hey hey girl ❤️❤️ so excited for this video!!! 😍
You need two, two is one, one is none
Fyi , that evaporated milk is Filled Milk. Use just for baking or cooking , it's not for drinking because it has oil in it ❤
Living off our preps now due to taxes and a surprise car bill. Thanks for showing us what the dollar tree has ❤ very interesting to see what they have in comparison to Walmart 👍
Dollar Tree online is GREAT for bulk stock up!
The pop top cans are also good if your adding things to a neighborhood mini pantry. ( blessing box) We have one in our neighborhood. I know not everyone has one. But, if you are able to add a few things to one, make sure they are pop top or easy open packages. All these ideas are so great, for home or for a blessing box.
Love these ideas ❤ thank you darlin
Great video! Dollar Tree can be a great asset for prepping.
Would love to see more items you prep from Dollar Tree 😊
By the way great video! I love how approachable you make prepping to those who may just be starting or are tight on space! Keep these types of videos up! I love them!
Hi Tamara. You always provide such helpful and practical information for those who want to start some sort of food storage/security but really don't know how to begin. Well done!
Glad it was helpful!
Great ideas. Please read ingredients on the packaging. MSG is in a lot of the Dollar Tree spices.
I just got a few items from my local dollar tree. My son loves the nectar drinks, I got $4 frozen pizzas( about a dollar cheaper than at my “regular” grocery stores) and some super cute Easter decor.
Such helpful tips!! ❤
Thank you for addressing those of us without a lot of storage.
This was such an informative video with so many great tips. Thank you Tamara!
You are so welcome!
Thank you so much for the tips! It got ne thinking. FIrst aid including bandaids, aspirin, gauze, tootache medicine, cotton balls, and alcohol pads would be good or anything else your family usually needs.
Do you think beef Jerry or sticks might be a good idea? For us older people, a pair of extra readers would be invaluable if you had to leave in a hurry and take pics of important id cards so you have them on your phone. Oh yes- an extra phone charger.
Thank you Tami. Love your videos, even if you have been prepping for a while I still love watching what others are doing & getting new ideas. Good to know that you can get dry powdered peanut butter there. I will be trying it out rather than buying a bulk item & not like it At one point I didn't even know about powdered peanut butter & other powdered items. Good to know. I also keep powdered milk on hand as well, like you have pointed out if you can't get to the grocery for some reason you still have milk. Thank you & look forward to your next video.
You do a vey good job preparing for such a young lady
I call them Vienie sausages also. I'm am from WV so hello neighbor.
This is a great ideal for folks that go camping a lot.
Since I found complete season it is perfect for just about everything.. This week I just added it to popcorn 🍿... Yummmmm. This is great information
The tuna and chicken salad boxes are great for a snack or lunch
I will be revisiting this video in about 4 months. We are moving to an old farmhouse out of this awful apartment community and our rent and bills will be cut in half and I intend to prep it up when I have space and try to become more self sufficient(gardening, canning/preserving).
Wishing you the best of luck with your move & with the stock up plans!!
@@stacyrussell460 thank you Stacy!! We are so ready to be out of this place. In our area in the last month has been two separate double homicides 😩 its crazy!
@@alissssay oh, yikes. That's horrible & not a safe place to stay for sure.
@@stacyrussell460 I know it’s wild. We are in a small rural town too so not even a big city and the crime is just insane
@@alissssay I'm in NJ but shouting distance to Philly. Seems like the first five minutes of every news channel is the latest violence. It's sad bc I know many great people from the area that choose to stay bc of budget, age or both.
Great video. I love Dollar Tree. You can get some really good deals & if you want to be more prepared, DT is a great way to do it esp if money is tight. It's like havin a savings, something is better than nothing & you have to start somewhere.
If you can take $10 a wk, buy 4 items @ DT & put $5 in a savings acct. If money is super tight(I have been there) you might have to skip a wk & maybe there are wks you could take $15.
I'm so glad you like making videos for us cause I love watching them, this one I found so informative and also fun for me thank you
Glad you like them!
Fantastic video Thank you for sharing Tamara have a blessed day stay safe and healthy. Loved the video. 🙏❤🙏❤🙏👍👍👍
Hi
Don’t know where you are ,coated but that’s the nicest Dollar Tree. Ours is the worst ever. I’ve been in others in different cities and states and none as bad as ours.
T
This was very helpful and informative, I have been wanting to start prepping some things, the Dollar Tree is a great place to start. Thank you for doing this video Tamara and yes I would like to see more from Dollare Tree! 😊
cool
I agree that someone who is new to preparing it can be overwhelming to them. Great job at showing how to get started . 😊
Hi Angel girl and everyone else 😇 God bless you and your family ❤️ You are so sweet! Love you guys 💗💗😘🥰😇
Thanks for all these ideas for my prepper stock Tamara.
This was the greatest video yet , thank you for helping those of us trying to start prepping👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
I loved this video, I've always wanted to know more about prepping. I used some of your ideas yesterday shopping. I'm having surgery in about a week and prepping to be home was easier after watching on how you prep. I. Hope you put more videos on about prepping. Thank you for your prepping videos.
You give me such great ideas to prep love your videos keep up the great work an god bless you an your family😊❤
Thank you so much!
This is the FIRST Dollar tree that looks so organized! Lol
This was so helpful Tamera! Thanks for the excellent video, God bless you.
🙏🏻✝🥰
Tamara I think I would try that peanut butter powder in a vanilla shake for Winston or in vanilla cook pudding . Thank you for sharing 🌸🌟🌸
Great video!! Thank you!! And anyone who does NOT call them viennie sausages are the ones that are pronouncing it wrong lol! 💜💜
Smaller items for sharing for those around u who don’t and want yours..
You always have great prepping ideas Tam! I definitely have added many shelf-stable items to my pantry since watching you & I appreciate your support! 🤗
Keep the videos coming!!
Fun trip - I recently stocked up some kids- supplies for a summer gardening class I'm leading this summer for 4H! Dollar Tree kids gardening supplies can't be beat! 🍀💚
Thank you for a great video. Please show more pepper videos.

Another great video of useful information. We plan on making one of our guest bedrooms into a prepper pantry.
The oat milk from dollar tree is great. I use it for coffee creamer!
Great ideas!! Im stealing this!! Thank you!!❤
You always do a good job informing us thanks😊
Great video. I love dollar tree.
I love these videos.
Absolutely Wonderful Video! Soooo Helpful! Thank you!
Hey hey sweet girl! Excited to see this! I love that bin idea! Such a good idea for limited space!
Thank you. Great ideas.
Thanks for the inspiration in this video and informing me that I can get stock items at dollar tree. I never thought about using dollar tree for stock items or food prepping before. ❤️ you are so right, it’s a great idea to start stocking up on some items and always making sure to keep them on hand in case of emergencies. 🥰 We never know what the future holds and we should work on preparing and planning better. I never know what to keep on hand at all times so this video helped me get an idea of that too. 🥰
Id like to see more of the prepper items you buy at the dollar tree! 🙋 Thank you for the great content!
Really good ideas
so fun thanx for snaring
Great ideas and suggestions for someone starting a Prepper Pantry. You always give the best advice for starters as well as veterans on prepping. Thank you Tamara for another great video and we'll see you next time.
