Yep finally got me 2 cases of precious commodities per Stormfeather's link. Now I'm not one to have precious metals stacked but if I'm holding a stockpile of double ply toilet paper plus food stores I'm pretty sure I can barter me some for metal. :D
There's going to be a whole lot of crying and gnashing of teeth when people find out they can't wipe with coins or bars very well. So being the kind and caring person I am ; I figure maybe I can offer them some relief by tracking down some for them. At a cost of course. Well unless they want to go the some other way. ;)
I'm buying it cheap and stacking it deep. Got my eldest daughter in on it too. We figure it can't hurt because if you can't eat it or wipe with it you'll come to me in the end . And I know quite a few people with metal who think I'm stupid for not being heavy into it.
They state they can buy what ever they need at that time. And they are right ; I'm just not telling them that I'll be the guy that they'll be dealing with. After all I am a little stupid in their eyes.
This along with other things will help in the long run and in a morbid kind of way I can't wait to see the look on their faces after they figure out they should've invested in other items also. The best part is they don't even have a clue as to my life style or stocking. They just believe I'm an gray old man fooling around with a 100 different projects as they say even though they don't know what the projects are.
I know it will be hard to track down the 2 ply paper but I'm willing to go the extra mile for them if I have to. :rolleyes:
A big thanks goes out to Stormy for the link.
