[QUOTE="Hound dog, post: 579078, member: 84"] Calamity Jane.........put your frig items and freezer items into boxes outside if your power goes. It will stay good that way and you can focus the generator on heating. I think the only reason we've not been hit with anything huge recently (knocks quickly on wood before I eat those words) is because I'm as prepared as I can possibly be. I won't do a generator......too expensive and unless dealing with sub zero temps not really worth it. I have my Heater Buddy, my gas stove.........all sorts of lanterns, oil lamps, flashlights and candles. I also have plenty of stored propane for the Heater Buddy too so if we get hit with a major storm and the store suddenly is sold out I'm still good to go. I nurtured my kids love of books and anything that didn't require a power cord or batteries. It always paid off during a power outage. (I also store various activities that are only used during such things so they stay "new" ) Oh! I hope no one loses power! Keeping you all in my prayers. Stay warm and stay safe. Hugs [/QUOTE]
