Love and kindness are the very basis of society. If we lose these feelings, society will face tremendous difficulties; the survival of humanity will be endangered. - Dalai Lama
I get a kick out of being an outsider constantly. It allows me to be creative. - Bill Hicks
The status quo sucks. - George Carlin
“If the fool would persist in his folly, he would become wise.” – William Blake
Cameron McKirdy produced a new #EDC or Everyday Carry video update! Check out the latest gear Survival Bros uses to stay safe, and be prepared for emergency situations. Many products have multiple uses. For example, you could use the headphone wires as cordage to keep something together. HD video filmed with the new GoPro Hero7 Black camera. It’s just OK. The lens fogged up from the body heat coming off of my hand. I thought this video was ruined, but I’m happy with the post. Making YouTube videos is tough, but rewarding.

Like trading for stuff without using money? Would you like to get rid of some extra junk? Put a “Take One, Leave One” blanket in a public area like I did. Watch the new HD #survivalbros video, then read more about this fun Art project below.
This project was a success! Hundreds of people stopped, and contributed to “The Art Show”. I call it a free trading platform, or an exchange, which I facilitated, and curated. It encouraged beachcombers to give, and consider the value of their trading item. Sure some people took and didn’t leave, or left and didn’t take. A few kids picked up fond objects like pieces of shells, or rocks, and got the toy they wanted. The children would not be denied, and many made multiple trades, which I found amusing.
For the most part, I stayed out of it, and watched the developments from a nearby bench. I straightened it up a few times, and threw away trash. I will say it’s annoying when people leave their business card, and take a cool item, but I didn’t intervene. The Take One, Leave One project had a life of it’s own…
The sweetest moment happened when a kid traded his football for earrings, and quickly gave them to his mother. No hesitation. Then he grabbed a stuffed animal, and got a toy for himself. All in a matter of 30 seconds! Ha. The children making multiple trades cracked me up. They saw no limits to the possible trades. However, some parents wouldn’t even take time to explain this concept, or stop to let their kids even look at the show on the Promenade. They said things like, “I will get you a new toy from the store instead.” Fine. Buy everything then, ya Trendy.
This concept blew minds. People had never seen this before. It got people thinking, which is good. Proving, small ideas in tiny spaces can leave a big, and unexpected impact. However, I have set this up before in a busy area: read Part One HERE!!!

Watch and learn how to get a free home, vehicle, or abandoned trailer like this one I found. It was left on a back road in Oregon. If someone doesn’t claim it by the posted time on the public notice, then it will be towed and impounded. To get a free house, etc. just call the Sheriff and tell the police it’s yours now, and you will be taking responsibility of ownership.
I could put this on a friend’s property, or pay only $35 per month to store it locally. Decisions…Decisions…and here I am blogging about it.
Cam here. Thanks for visiting my emergency preparedness blog. We are pumping out a bunch of new videos this month, so I hope you like watching them. Please share this quick informational production with friends. Here’s the short link to copy and paste: https://youtu.be/7O-KCu_Jqf4 This is important and fun stuff for preppers of all skill levels.
I threw this kit together with gear items on hand that were laying around unused and therefore extra. We have the basic survival necessities covered for the most part, but improvements can always be made. I did notice there wasn’t an emergency blanket in this canister, and they can be purchased for $2. However, if there’s a tsunami wave on the Oregon Coast, I like my odds of living. I have kits like this one gallon cache, plus backpacks loaded with necessities, and bikes with racks placed strategically all over the Pacific Northwest.
What’s your plan for safe escape from danger? Stay healthy out there. And keep your head on a swivel. Few things are more valuable that situational awareness. Cheers.

Survival Bros vlogs about getting freebies around town by asking. This new HD video was filmed at Country Village in Longview, Washington. You’d be surprised how much free stuff you can acquire by requesting health food samples at local stores in person. I’m a regular customer, so I can get complementary products in trial sizes, without purchasing a single item. Plus, I ask nicely, and am very grateful for the edible endowments. After all, they do call me Cameron Consumption. I’ve got this survival system down to an Art form. Thanks for watching.
Comment on the video on YouTube or below once you have completed this #survivalbros Challenge.
I also tried a marijuana CBD spray inside this Washington State establishment!
In these HD #survivalbros videos I source product, or pick stuff, to potentially resell at a profit. I purchased nearly 27 pounds of Goodwill donations at 99 cents per lb in one day, as seen in the first vlog below. Watch these guides to learn more about picking, aka hustling. I chose a diverse range of merchandise, buying everything from purses to Nintendo Wii video games. I think I scored on my thrifting haul adventure, but you be the judge. SUBSCRIBE TO SURVIVAL BROS ON YOUTUBE HERE to join the conversation. Thanks for watching.
Cam found Minion Goggles at The Bins in Portland, Oregon
Pro Tips for Shopping at The Goodwill Outlet Bins:
Wear gloves. This way you can toss stuff, and protect your hands from sharp objects…
Weigh your cart several times to see where your at, and to preview what you may spend.
Take a chance on an item or two that you know nothing about. It may prove to be a super find.
Hustling isn’t for lazy people. You have to think on your feet, and react quickly. One must follow their heart, and instincts to get money. Buying and selling the goods you got takes skill too. Then you have to deliver on your promise to the customer in order to maintain your street cred. Do you have what it takes to be a hustler? I made this video to help others get ideas about reselling their thrift shop finds, not to simply to show off my abilities. But damn I’m good. No. Hustling, making a video on it, and articulating ideas in an article is not for the lazy. Good money is earned. My thoughts are free. Check out the picked profit breakdown below.
Total Value and Asking price on thrifting haul:
1. Price is Right Wii game + $20
2. Tiger Woods 08 game + $25
3. Baby Einstein DVDs + $20
4. Batman CD Player + $45 (SOLD!)
5. Starbucks Tumbler + $20
6. Lion King Disney Mug + $20
7. Sony Walkman Radio + $40
8. Octopus Ring + $20 = $210
*Spent only $19!

Learn about getting food and supplement samples from your local shops at NO COST. I visit health food stores such as GNC, and ask the cashier for freebies, or take items from their basket of product trials. These individual servings will be stored properly in Ziploc bags, and placed in various emergency preparedness kits, plus my Everyday Carry backpack. I have saved tons of money using this method of urban scavenging. You can make your own freebie haul like this with little effort.
