Hey fellow Preppers, I have made a list of commonly wanted objects people would trade for in a heart beat. These items should put you ahead of the curve. In my opinion GOLD, SILVER, COINS and PAPER CURRENCY WILL NOT BE OF USE. OK I take that back I guess you can burn the paper currency as tinder or use it in games of poker but that's about it. This is not everything that will be of value but its a good chunk.
Aluminum Foil (hundreds of Uses)
Ammunition (.22, .223, 9mm, .45, 30-06, 12ga, .308)
Apple Cider Vinegar
Arrows (ammo for Your Bow, Different Heads for Different Game)
Baking Soda
Bleach (non-scented, Plain, 4-6% Sodium Hydrochloride)
Books (prepper Info/notes , Fiction, Non-fiction, Romance, Medical Books, "the Talk")
Bottles of Alcohol (75% Should Be Vodka It Has Great Medial Uses and Its Vary Popular)
Bow (silent Hunts and Take Downs)
Bullet Proof Vest (ceramic or Plate)
Caffeine Pills (getting hard during fire watch? pop one of these bad boys)
Candles (best quick source of light ever!)
Charcoal (easy fuel)
Coffee (fire watch b est friend, also blood clot-er)
Conditioner (great gift for SHTF women, its like diamonds but better)
Condoms (people will still have sex, they will avoid pregnancy at any cost)
Drink Mix (Cristal Light, Lemon Aid, Kool Aid)
Energy Shots (stay up on night watch, fatigue gets even the best soldiers)
First Aid Kits (easy and simple kits can go along way)
Fishing Supply's (extra Poles, Bait, Lures, Fly Fishing Equipment, Line, Bobbers)
Gas Cans (for Fuel Which Will Be in High Demand)
Hand Can Openers (yes i know what is this! trust me you will wish you had one)
Hand Tools (pliers, Saws, Drills, Screw Drivers, Allen Wrenches)
