October Prime Day may be over, but there are still great deals on emergency supplies
The last few weeks have been filled with headlines about weather emergencies — as several states are still reeling from the damage caused by Category 4 Hurricane Helene, Hurricane Milton made landfall on Wednesday night as a Category 3 hurricane causing damage across parts of Florida.
Are you prepared for a weather catastrophe? Even if you don't live somewhere prone to hurricanes, other dangerous disasters can happen: snowstorms, ice, droughts and dangerous heat. And weather isn't the only thing to worry about. Earthquakes, wildfires, widespread power outages and other natural disasters can and do happen as well.
In this article: Duracell Optimum AA Batteries, 28-Count Pack, LifeStraw Personal Water Filter and Clozex Emergency Laceration Closures - Repair Wounds Without Stitches
