Get Home Bag - Emergency Prepper


Get Home Bag

Preppers, you may have heard of a Bug Out Bag (BOB) which is used to help you survive an emergency when you need to leave, but a get home bag or emergency backpack helps you do just that, get home.

If you are out and about at work, or school, and an emergency arises, you may have a hard time getting home.  If there is a power outage, your car breaks down or anything else where you will need to walk home, your Get Home Bag may make a world of difference.

To create a Get Home Bag, you should start with a sturdy, inconspicuous bag.  A simple backpack should be fine.  In it, you will need to put anything you think may help to get you home or your get home survival kit.  If you wear dress shoes at work, you may consider putting in a pair of walking shoes.  Some food, a knife (or two), a way to make fire, an emergency whistle, a blanket or two, some water, hand sanitizer, a first aid kit, some money, or anything else you may need to walk home along a non-traditional path.
