Yeah I totally forgot about food. MRE's or something. What about antibiotics? Gasoline won't keep for long so I'll rule that out.

from the last response, Im going with EOTWAWKI.

Fasteners - wood screws, nails, bolts, nuts, Zip ties. string/ rope/ twine/ fishing line. Sooner or later (sooner) you have to put something together or repair something. Also makes shelter much easier to make.

If we are talking BOB - zip ties and string/ fishing line

Seems like people always forget simple fishing gear. You can't go 100 yds in Louisiana without a spot to fish.

Good boots. With no gasoline you're going to be doing a lot of walking.
