Black Friday Prepping Deals

MyMedic got started early this year, with a blanket 20% off all of their first aid kits and med packs. They are also throwing in gifts for purchases over $100.

Plenty of kits and medical supplies go on sale at Amazon as we get closer to Black Friday, so we’ll update those when they go live.

Amazon’s Black Friday doesn’t start until Nov 21st this year, but they get a head start with early deals every year. Like most of their sales, they start off by marking down security cameras, systems, and other security supplies.

This is always great timing since the holidays can be the season of the porch pirate. Don’t let the best time of year turn into the worst by boosting your home security ahead of time.

All November long, the ones that brought freeze-drying technology home are bringing some solid savings on their new Pro models, ranging from $500-$1,000 off.

Harvest Right continues to top our freeze-dryer review with trusted quality and unbeatable prices. Many preppers wait for this sale if they have been planning on buying one because it’s always the lowest price of the year.

A freeze-dryer doesn’t make sense for everyone, though. We found after reviewing many models that you need to process a lot of food to start seeing savings compared to emergency food suppliers.

• Home Pro Small – $1,795 (list $2,495)

This company, out of Idaho, known for its hunting gear, also excels in mission packs. They have overperformed in our survival backpack tests for the past few years now, with well-designed packs made with high-quality materials.

Even the questionably fashionable Bando bag fanny pack has found its way into our EDC recommendations.

The sale runs from November 25 to December 2nd and has a few deals up to 60% off. This brand almost never goes on sale, so it’s nice to see them jumping into the Black Friday fray, and we’ll be picking up a few backpacks ourselves.

Check out their deals here:

They know lights and have a rabid fanbase (which is a bit odd), but our tests show they perform and hold up in tough conditions.

On some models, you’ll need to toggle over to a less expensive color/material to see the exact deal we’ve listed.

Solar and energy storage continue to improve both efficiency and price point, and it all comes together when there are massive sales.

We usually keep tabs on Augason Farms deals on our deal page tracking whenever they pass 40% off on Amazon, but we were caught off guard for Black Friday.

Mountain House is the one bringing the heat for the Black Friday sales, with huge discounts that surpass even Augason’s (check out the Diced Chicken #10 Can!)

They did go on sale relatively early, so we’ve already seen about half of the cans sell out.

Typically, they are the most expensive brand (and tastiest in our emergency food supplier taste-test), so seeing them dive to a much more affordable place is great news for prepper pantries everywhere.

Check out the best emergency food storage Black Friday deals:
