Erik mentioned that US military personnel with proper identification can shop at Sam’s Club without a membership for two days in December [2]. The company will also waive its 10 percent non-member service fee. The military open houses will be held Monday, Dec. 1 and Monday, Dec. 15 at 598 Sam’s Club locations in the U.S., during regular club hours. This is a good opportunity to stock up! BTW, if you need to know exactly what food products, hygiene items and sundries to buy at a “Big Box” store and details on their shelf lives, then study my “Rawles Gets You Ready” preparedness course [3].

Doc Gary sent us a tip that Alamo Tactical [5] still has a few MagPul brand “MagLevel” (cartridge counter window) polymer magazines (“PMAGs”) for AR-15s still in stock (in just one remaining color–“Foliage Green”) for under $18 each. Well, that is until today, when the readers of SurvivalBlog will undoubtedly clean them out.
