What is in a Poor Man's Zombie Survival kit?

We all want to survive the Zombie Apocalypse, and ideally we could have a great shelter,



Enough Food to keep you fat and happy for a while..

weapons up the butthole

 
 and enough beer to get fucked up till you run out of everything else...

But Some of us won't have any of that, or you will run out of beer and food and have to go on a beer run, oh and get food. But maybe we just start out up shit creek to begin with and once the house gets ransacked, you run out of bullets, and the food is all gone, you have to hit the road Jack.


But what are some basics you need to get on the move when none of the ideal items are available and you don't have Dora the Fucking explorer and her magical backpack? (Let's face it that bitch would survive the Zombies because she could pull anything from that backpack)

Okay let's start there you probably need at least a basic backpack to carry your shit. Something comfortable with plenty of room,

but in a pinch any backpack will do....

Let's fill this fucker up...
You are going to need something to eat, On the road you can do what you have to but you need to start somewhere. Before the shit hits the fan go to an army surplus store and pick up some MREs (Meals Ready To Eat) I know you are saying, well I don't have that shit laying around. Well if you are reading this now you have time, because if the dead get up and start munching on the living, I am not writing a blog to help your ass out, I will have my own fucking problems...Anyway

You bring up a good point (how does it fell to be right, you know it all Internet prick?)  If we are dealing in basics, some canned foods and a can opener will have to do. If you can carry it a good frying pan can double as a weapon, that you can smash a Zombie in the face with and heat some of that canned shit up if you don't like cold ravioli.


Now Fire is important so matches would be good, waterproof matched would be better...


Another important item may be a first aid kit. But if you are not a huge pussy and can deal with the normal scratches and bruises you can save space and get by.

And of course water is life, so if it is just a bottle to replenish as you go

Something a bit higher grade...


 or even better a canteen you are going to need something to carry some water in, Period!

No water and you might as well let Zombie Joe bite your sorry ass before you die of thirst.


Also if you can carry it, a sleeping bag would add a bit of comfort in a fucked up Zombie world...

But sometimes it is not about comfort it is about survival. So let's look at some defensive weapons most of us own. Again in a great situation a shit ton of guns would be awesome!!!

Even one would be great. But having no access to them we have to adapt and overcome.
So we go basic.. A Large kitchen knife is silent, can be carried easy and can puncture the skull with some force, but you have to get close, so be careful, those bastards are a all teeth once they turn.  Most people have a large knife in their kitchen so this is a definite in a poor man's Zombie world.


How about an ax?

If you go large this could be a great weapon, hell if this is all you have you have a leg up on a bunch of other people. But it may be tough to carry around..You could go hand ax for convenience...Again it is sharp, silent and a bit easier to crack through their Zombie skulls.



Speaking of cracking skulls, most of us at one point or another have played baseball which brings us to a great low budget weapon, that could be collecting dust in your garage right now..
Louisville Zombie head smashing Slugger

If by chance you have a wood bat you can go a step further with a hand full of nails...

Now you are kicking some Zombie ass home run style.

Finally you may be walking or running miles before you can rest a decent pair of shoes.



This list can be changed. We all have specific needs and ways to fight through. Just remember you need water, a way to protect yourself and something to eat. Beyond that if you keep clear of those lumbering fucking idiots...
You will probably be alright....

If we get lucky enough for fast moving types...



The running shoes may be important.

Good luck out there. I have seen a lot of you in public and unfortunately, some of you are lucky you can tie your own shoes, so I am going to assume, I may be bashing you in the head with my nail coated bat!!! Don't take it personal I just don't want to become a Zombie.
