 Buying MREs
Personally, I think MREs are great, but for $100 for 12 meals (+ $20-$30 for shipping), I'd recommend looking into alternate food sources - Mountain House dehydrated food, canned food, single-serving entrees from the grocery store (Dinty Moore, Hormel), or bags of good ol' beans and rice.
If you happen to live near a military base, there's a good chance the MRE prices there will be much more reasonable because of the sheer number of local people selling them to the surplus stores.
