Repurposing glass, plastic, and Mylar containers can significantly reduce the cost of building your food storage. It takes a little extra effort, but you can save a lot of money if you are willing to do the work.
In this video, I'll show you how I repurpose clean containers to build my long-term supply of dry goods. The one expense I think is worth the cost is purchasing oxygen absorbers. They will significantly extend the quality shelf life of your dry goods.
We are big fans of Wallaby's Mylar bags and oxygen absorbers. The quality is perfect for long-term storage. https://bit.ly/3fmgEqD. Use the promo code PROVIDENT5 for $5 off.
