Episode 54: Tarp setup options part 2
Hello and welcome to Failure to Prepare! Your source for all things paranoid! Coming to you proudly from the ghetto low budget, Failure to Prepare studios. If you guys don’t mind in the comments, remind me to buy some duct tape to hold my camera in place for these videos, I am almost out.
Mrs. Failure to Prepare and I discussed some “Get Home Bag” tarp options, I found a 10’ x 10’ tarp, called the ODSE rain fly hammock tent tarp. What I liked about it, mainly was the price of $24.99 and what it came with. One side appeared to be reflective, which if that is the case, would be helpful in retaining heat. It also comes with six stakes and six guidelines, and tie off loops around the tarp. We are supposed to possibly get some snow or rain tomorrow, so I am going to leave it up in the weather just to see how it does. I am going to try a couple of different configurations of this tent, and video them for you to check out.
The Second setup I will use is what some people call the A-frame, it has no floor, and shelters in two directions from rain and the wind, you can secure it using trees, or other objects, but I choose to simulate not have these options and used trekking poles instead. One thing I also like about this setup is you can have a small fire that will radiate heat into the tarp.
I am not going to rate this tarp at this time, because I currently have no experience using it, other than simple setup.
Also please keep in mind in case this platform cracks down on me, I am also on Rumble and WeMe. So here we go:

Episode 43: 4Patriots Sun Kettle Refund Follow-up w/Customer Service
Hello and welcome to Failure to Prepare! Your source for all things paranoid!
In this episode, we briefly follow-up, with my contact of 4Patriots, regarding the status of my refund for the set of Sun Kettles I sent back. Since we had to pay for shipping on the return, via UPS, we knew that the return shipment had been received by 4 Patriots, however, a few days went by and nothing. I called the 4Patriots Customer Service at 1-800-304-4202. It didn’t appear they were in a hurry to refund my money, due to the arrival notification from UPS, I believe we waited 4-6 days following the return to call 4 Patriots to ask what was up.
I spoke with a lady, I think her name was Wanda? Anyway, I thought she was outstanding! She was very nice and kept us on the phone until she verified our refund was sent. She had to place us on hold a couple of times, once to verify the products were returned, and again to deal with the refund processing. Either way, I think the customer service, at least the lady I dealt with was great! So out of a score of 10, 10 being the best, I would like to give Wanda at 4 Patriots a Failure to Prepare 10 out of 10.
Also, I would like to add that I was able to sell some food stamps, and I sold some blood at the local blood bank and was able to buy a new webcam and microphone, so this video is also a test for those items as well, please let me know if the sound and video quality are now a little better, we are still pretty ghetto here at Failure to Prepare, but it is what it is! I am not a 20-year-old topless chick that you are throwing money at, you get what you pay for here at Failure to Prepare!

Welcome to Failure to Prepare
Hello everyone and welcome to the channel, the idea behind this channel is to prepare, and my observations as to what’s going on in the world and country. My main goal with this channel is to share knowledge and help others if I can.
Failure to prepare is preparing to fail, which is why I wanted to start this channel and with any luck, help some folks out in the process through self-reliance and basic knowledge.
Please do not infer anything from this channel as life instruction, medical advice, legal advice, or any advice of any type. If you get yourself hurt, purchase crazy things outside of your budget, or just doing something asinine, you only have yourself to blame and not this channel.
Anything expressed here is my opinion, taken from my experience via two separate careers, where nothing was given to me, and everything I have, I earned, typically through hard work and determination and the will to succeed and survive.
I do not advocate doing anything that is considered illegal or stupid for that matter. What is SHTF? It is when “Shit hit’s the fan” when life as you know it turns upside down, it could be from an EMP pulse, a war, a natural disaster, or even something as far fetched as a pandemic.
