Not an all inclusive list, just some of the better deals I've found:
Mountain House buckets. These are storage buckets with 12 pouches of freeze dried food in them, two to three "meals" in each pouch. The cheapest I had found these before was about $75, they are ON SALE for $52, $57. Bucket choices include "Classic" ($57, was $80) which is 2 pouches each of beef stroganoff (our favorite!), chicken teriyaki, beef stew, lasagna with meat, noodles and chicken, and granola with blueberries; "Essential" ($52 was $80), 4 pouches each of rice and chicken, chili mac, and spaghetti, and "Breakfast" ($84 was $101) containing 4 scrambled eggs with ham, 4 scrambled eggs with bacon, 4 granola w/blueberries, 4 breakfast skillet.
I'm excited. I almost bought the Classic when I found it for $75 for my two oldest kids (ships easy, can be put in a closet etc.), so I'm thrilled to be spending about half as much. I'll buy a third (maybe a fourth while I'm at it) and restock my kids' bug out bags.
Emergency Essentials. Many items close to half off (ok, 46%) like Premium Fruit Combo was $210 now $120, (a #10 can each of peach, orange, pineapple, strawberry, blackberry), ASAP Silver solution was $44, now $23. Special doorbusters (1 per customer) like beef meals & vegetable pack (sale $97) resulting in 60% off!
OCFoodStorage. 40-50% off everything on their site. L-O-V-E their gourmet main meals, especially their habanero mango chili. You can actually taste the mango and you'll definitely feel the habanero. They are also going to be at the Crossroads of the West gun show in Costa Mesa California November 29th, if you are in the area.
The Ultimate Dehydrator Cookbook: Complete Guide to Drying Food including 398 recipes by Tammy Gangloff. You likely won't know her name, but you probably know her face: she's the Dehydrate2Store lady. I'm excited she wrote this book. I plan on growing everything in the recipe book which can be grown at home, dehydrating and storing it, and then I will not only have "food on hand" but I'll actually know what to do with it. (You know I'm cooking challenged.)
Various Dutch Ovens are on sale 50% off, Osprey backpacks (the climbing, hiking, bug out kind) 25% off.
Excalibur 9 tray dehydrator for $179 (was $250) and an Excalibur 4 tray for $104 (was $150). If you're really strapped for money and/or you're new to dehydrating and you don't want to make a huge dollar commitment, then $104 is an easy buy. But trust me: you're going to wish you'd spent the $179 and bought the 9 tray. I'm just saying. And I'm not even a constant dehydrator like some people are.
There are probably a ton more, but I've got a turkey in the oven with my name on it.
