From a Sarajevo War Survivor:
Stockpiling helps, but you never no how long trouble will last, so locate near renewable food sources.
Living near a well with a manual pump is like being in Eden.
After awhile, even gold can lose its luster. But there is no luxury in war quite like toilet paper. Its surplus value is greater than gold’s.
If you had to go without one utility, lose electricity - it’s the easiest to do without (unless you’re in a very nice climate with no need for heat.)
Canned foods are awesome, especially if their contents are tasty without heating. One of the best things to stockpile is canned gravy - it makes a lot of the dry unappetizing things you find to eat in war somewhat edible. Only needs enough heat to “warm”, not to cook. It’s cheap too, especially if you buy it in bulk.
Bring some books - escapist ones like romance or mysteries become more valuable as the war continues. Sure, it’s great to have a lot of survival guides, but you’ll figure most of that out on your own anyway - trust me, you’ll have a lot of time on your hands.
The feeling that you’re human can fade pretty fast. I can’t tell you how many people I knew who would have traded a much needed meal for just a little bit of toothpaste, rouge, soap or cologne. Not much point in fighting if you have to lose your humanity. These things are morale-builders like nothing else.
Slow burning candles and matches, matches, matches.
More matches

Oh no, run for the hills, two people have a mutant strain.

Government using such nonsense to try to cover up their incompetence (mission impossible when Bozo and Hancock are front and centre) and piss-poor inefficiently managed NHS, and the 'Nightingales' with no staff to run them, and plenty of dumbass people are falling for it. 'Everyone must stay at home there are people dying".

The country is going down the crapper, and that's before the Brexit deal is publicised to see how UK government has sold its people down the river (e.g. UK can fish up to two-thirds in it's own waters after a 5 year transition, well thanks EU we were going to sell it to you anyway )

Or if you're in the UK, a peashooter, catapult, and spud gun (with plenty of bags of dried peas and large spuds)

Aye, the only weapon allowed in the UK is intelligence and that's being curtailed too.
