Walmart is clearing out ReadyWise emergency food supplies so stock up before you need it

You don’t have to be a hardcore prepper to get ready for a possible emergency. You should have some supplies on hand (and a bugout bag) just in case. Right now, Walmart is having a clearance sale on ReadyWise meals and other food supplies meant for long-term storage. They’re great to have in a pinch, but they can also be useful for longer camping trips and adventures where DoorDash isn’t an option. There are a ton of options on sale, so stock up now; maybe you can be the Gordon Ramsay of the post-apocalypse world. Or you can just have a warm meal during an extended power outage.
