Augason Farms is having a 50% off sale on their “One Month Pack”. (No idea how long the sale is running.) I bought a couple of these a while back and it is an excellent way to get introduced to their product. Foods are in #2 cans, which are far more practical than #10 cans, and when you factor in the price ($128.50 / 48 cans) you wind up getting a great assortment of stuff to try for, on average, $2.68. Nice fire-n-forget package for tucking away in cabins, RV’s, bunkers, caches, and relative’s houses. They also make great gifts if you’re the kinda guy who is willing to spend that kinda money on other folks.
My experience has been that when they have these sales it may take a week or two for product to ship, but to me it’s worth any delay to save a hundred bucks.
Since my food prep needs are small, two people, I find the #2 can (Augason Farms calls it their ‘Everyday Size’) to be a more practical size than a #10 can. A #10 can is a lot of food and if you don’t consume it fast enough you wind up wasting it. The #2 cans are just about the right size for one or two people.
I wound up buying a few other #2 cans of product to ’round out’ the ‘One Month Pack’ more to my liking. In conjunction with some canned/freezedried meats you can put together a pretty nice menu.
Anyway, they sent me a notice in email about the sale and I’m passing it along.
So the 128.50 is the half price?
Thats what it looks like to me. I think thats up from what it was a couple years ago.
Thanks for the notice. I buy one of these everytime I see it promoted on your site. This will be my third. As a regular reader, I really appreciate the notice of this type of special deal from time to time. Keep up the good work.
I love those deals of theirs – just a heads up to all that you really need to take a Sharpie to the cans and note what is in them. I have found their labels to be a bit slippy. And in a long term problem zone? You’ll be glad you wrote on the lids.
My first post here. Keep up the great work on your site. Of the ten sites prep related that I follow yours is one of the best. Per your advice have purchased
several times the Augason 30 day supply and agree the cans are the perfect size .
I really dislike you when you post these things, my bank account suddenly shrinks. But it is a good combination of items other then the typical oatmeal, beans and rice emergency food B.S.
The one year supply is 50% off also. Just ordered it. Free shipping too! With a family of five, I can use the #10 cans.
FYI, just received an email from Auguson Farms informing me that it will be 7-14 days before my order ships. I placed the order two days ago, so figure a total of 9-16 days’ lead time to shipping.
