What is the oddest thing you buy/keep/collect for supplies when TSHTF?
For me?

Clothes dryer lint. Extremely flammable, easy to light in case you need to start a fire. I have a pile of it next to my dryer, I need to find a bucket for it.

What do you have that's odd, but works really well for a when TSHTF?

LOL I guess they would, as long as it was fall and it wasn't raining. It snows here all winter, so no leaves. Summer you;d have to pick them and let them dry out to be able to burn them in the first place. Dryer lint just seemed to much easier to collect and keep dry.

 Quoting: Mother Mary

I saved dryer lint for a long time too. I read a tip here or somewhere to pack the lint into cardboard egg cartons and pour wax from used up candles and such (actually, I got cheap CHEAP candles from the a discount candle factory surplus store here). I did that and am now the proud owner of over 300 firestarter 'eggs'.

But the oddest things I've gathered, I guess, are firebricks and cement to build an outdoor oven.
