What if the power went out tonight and didn't come back for 3 days? Most families aren't ready — but for $38, you can be.

I went to Dollar Tree and Walmart and built a complete power outage survival kit with 14 items. Most of these are things you walk right past every time you shop. But when the lights go out, they become essential survival gear.

In this video I show you every item, what it costs, exactly where to find it, and how to use it when the grid goes down.
