In an ideal situation, if a SHTF moment occurs, we all could have every little convenience possible to get through it in style.

Survival situations, however, are usually not ideal and space in a survival kit or bug-out bag is usually at a premium – either because of space issues or difficulty in transporting the survival items to a safe location.

Reality is a bug-out bag or survival kit is supposed to contain stuff you need to survive, but almost all of us have things that we have set aside that might be convenient, but not necessary in a SHTF moment.

This video covers some of those things – what do you think? Tell us your ideas about what is a “necessity” and what is nice to have, but not needed in a survival emergency.
