That is our regular Costco shopping list: every 3 months or so we purchase a supply of coffee beans, toilet paper, and Pellegrino mineral water (and maybe a few bottles of wine). In case of nuclear emergency, that's all we need.

Would that we had such wisdom in Washington...A Strategic Coffee Reserve should be a HIGH national priority here.
