The clock is ticking ... so many opportunities, so little time

Just some of the latest & greatest at Safecastle for your bunker ... First, a reminder on the huge Mountain House freeze-dried food sale that runs thru June and the freebies that many are pulling in ... shop discounts of up to 41% now.    But a quick summary first of just a few of the other NEW items that are flying out the door ... 1.  Brand New NOTICE:  The affordable SeekThermal XR for your smart phone is now in stock for both Android phones and iOS (check compatibility)! 2.  Our new 5-pack of Lifestraws at an unbeatable price are keeping us running to keep up with orders. 3.  Freeze-dried Chicken Patties by the can and case!

Freeze-dried Chicken Patties by the Case or Can: Freshly canned, while supplies last!

Not a common freeze-dried product, these chicken patties are hugely popular when available. Judging by the onset of the bird flu this year, it will probably a good long while before this product is available again, once the current supply is depleted.

With a 25-year shelf life, you can afford to lay-up several cases (or cans), just in case the species become extinct (kidding). 

Buy 'em while you can.

5-pack of Lifestraws--great deal!

Lifestraws are on the verge of becoming one of our top three selling products ... and for good reason. They are literally saving lives around the world.

We are celebrating the success of this product by putting together an unbeatable deal for a five-pack.

It doesn't take a good prepper long to realize the value and importance of a product like this.

At 2000 calories a day, a 12-meal case gets you more than a week of sustenance. Precooked, comes with flameless heater, but can be eaten hot or cold. These are selling fast--get them while we have them in stock. Buy now.

Safecastle Founder Returns to the Helm

Global crises bring JC Refuge out of retirement

I'm baaack!

Effective May 1, I am back at Safecastle to run the business I founded in 2002.

Mom calls me Victor, and friends call me Vic, but most folks out in the prepping universe know me as JC Refuge. By any name, I, along with a few family members built up Safecastle to be a leader in the crisis preparedness marketplace. Our customers came to know us as ultra-reliable customer-service mavens who would do anything in our power to assure the realization of their crisis preparedness goals.
 

Now I am coming out of retirement at a time when major global threats and emergencies are putting huge stresses on preppers and suppliers everywhere.

Are YOU Ready?

It's obvious there is just not much time left before the increasingly volatile status quo in America and around the world is going to rupture.
 

Who is going to be there to take care of your loved ones? If not you, then who?
 

Needless to say, now is the time to be laying in supplies, topping off your preps. Safecastle is ready and equipped to help. I intend that we will get that done for you in ways that cannot be matched!
 

I'm excited about our upcoming big plans. We've got a great new web store that is almost ready to launch, and we're going to be revealing a new way we will be rewarding our loyal customers and members for their wisdom and business with Safecastle. More on these things will be forthcoming.

Get This Deal
Word to the wise 

This Lindon Farms sale is going to deplete manufacturer inventories at some point--maybe very quickly. So if you want your food delivered as promptly as possible--get your order in early. If you get your order in near the end of the sale, you will get your food, but it might be longer in coming to you if the backorder situation at the factory that I expect with this sale does come to fruition.

ALSO--TODAY we have added several other new sale-priced preps, so we have approximately 90 items on sale!! ...

Emergency Alerts. Did you know ?

EMERGENCY ALERTS

Visit the FEMA Library to downloadWEA PSA (:30)
View "WEA PSA (:30)" on Youtube.

You can receive important lifesaving alerts no matter where you are - at home, at school, or at work.

Public safety officials use reliable systems to alert you and your family in the event of natural or man-made disasters. Many communities also offer emergency alert notifications through their own systems. 

1. Why are Wireless Emergency Alerts (WEA) important to me?
   Alerts received at the right time can help keep you safe during an emergency. With WEA, warnings can be sent to your mobile device when you may be in harm's way, without need to download an app or subscribe to a service.
2. What are WEA messages?
   Wireless Emergency Alerts (WEA) are emergency messages sent by authorized government alerting authorities through your mobile carrier.
3. What types of alerts will I receive?
   • Extreme weather, and other threatening emergencies in your area
   • AMBER Alerts
   • Presidential Alerts during a national emergency
4. What does a WEA message look like?
   WEA will look like a text message. The WEA message will show the type and time of the alert, any action you should take, and the agency issuing the alert. The message will be no more than 90 characters.
5. How will I know the difference between WEA and a regular text message?
   WEA messages include a special tone and vibration, both repeated twice.
6. What types of WEA messages will the National Weather Service send?
   • Tsunami Warnings
   • Tornado and Flash Flood Warnings
   • Hurricane, Typhoon, Dust Storm and Extreme Wind Warnings
7. What are AMBER Alerts?
   AMBER Alerts are urgent bulletins issued in the most serious child-abduction cases. The America's Missing: Broadcast Emergency Response (AMBER) Alert Program is a voluntary partnership between law-enforcement agencies, broadcasters, transportation agencies, and the wireless industry.
8. Who will send WEAs to issue AMBER Alerts?
   The National Center for Missing and Exploited Children (NCMEC), in coordination with State and Local public safety officials, sends out AMBER Wireless Emergency Alerts through IPAWS.
9. What should I do when I receive a WEA message?
   Follow any action advised by the message. Seek more details from local media or authorities.
10. Will I receive a WEA message if I'm visiting an area where I don't live, or outside the area where my phone is registered?
    Yes, if you have a WEA-capable phone and your wireless carrier participates in the program. (More than 100 carriers, including all of the largest carriers, do.)
11. What if I travel into a threat area after a WEA message is already sent?
    If you travel into a threat area after an alert is first sent, your WEA-capable device will receive the message when you enter the area.
12. When will I start receiving WEA messages?
    It depends. WEA capabilities were available beginning in April 2012, but many mobile devices, especially older ones, are not WEA-capable. When you buy a new mobile device, it probably will be able to receive WEA messages.
13. Is this the same service public safety agencies have asked the public to register for?
    No, but they are complementary. Local agencies may have asked you to sign up to receive telephone calls, text messages, or emails. Those messages often include specific details about a critical event. WEAs are very short messages designed to get your attention in a critical situation. They may not give all the details you receive from other notification services.
14. Will I be charged for receiving WEA messages?
    No. This service is offered for free by wireless carriers. WEA messages will not count towards texting limits on your wireless plan.
15. Does WEA know where I am? Is it tracking me?
    No. Just like emergency weather alerts you see on local TV, WEAs are broadcast from area cell towers to mobile devices in the area. Every WEA-capable phone within range receives the message, just like TV that shows the emergency weather alert if it is turned on. But, the TV stations, like WEA, don't know exactly who is tuned in.
16. Will a WEA message interrupt my phone conversations?
    No, the alert will be delayed until you finish your call.
17. How often will I receive WEA messages?
    You may get very few WEA messages, or you may receive frequent messages when conditions change during an emergency. The number of messages depends on the number of imminent threats to life or property in your area.
18. If, during an emergency, I can't make or receive calls or text messages due to network congestion, will I still be able to receive a WEA message?
    Yes, WEA messages are not affected by network congestion.
19. What if I don't want to receive WEA messages?
    You can opt-out of receiving WEA messages for imminent threats and AMBER alerts, but not for Presidential messages. To opt out, adjust settings on your mobile device.
20. How will I receive alerts if I don't have a WEA-capable device?
    WEA is only one of the ways you receive emergency alerts. Other sources include NOAA Weather Radio, news broadcasts, the Emergency Alert System on radio and TV programs, outdoor sirens, and other alerting methods offered by local and state public safety agencies.
