Contents packed in an old Q-Tip container:

  • 1 Sterile pad, 2 inches by 2 inches
  • About 2 feet of medical tape, flattened out to fit
  • 1 large bandage
  • 2 average size bandages
  • 2 mini bandages
  • 1 Antiseptic towelette
  • 3 Alcohol prep pads
  • 1 packet of triple antibiotic ointment
  • 1 dose packet of aspirin
  • 1 dose packet of acetaminophen
  • 1 dose packet of benadryl
  • 2 chewable pepto bismol tablets
  • 1 packet of BC powder

I think that’s everything I put in there anyways, hopefully nobody ever needs to use it, but it’s destined to go in our glove box.

Edited because I just added 2 sealed pepto bismol tablets, because why not, they fit neatly in there too.

Edit 2: I added a packet of BC powder. Aside from the typical headache or body pain, they’re also good as a fever reducer.

Edit 3: I added 2 additional alcohol prep pads for a total of 3, easy fit.

    That sounds awesome too, but I’d have to pack those in another box, as this one is practically full with the supplies I listed. Honestly I could go for a few more of these containers, the box was originally a convenience travel size Q-Tip container.

    I do actually have an ammo box at home that has some of the things you listed, such as a sewing kit, glasses repair kit (I’m practically blind without my glasses), a flint/magnesium bar fire starter, a couple spare multi-tools, a knife sharpener, an FM radio, even an FM transmitter, hygiene supplies, and I’m sure I’m forgetting a thing or three.

    Still would be neat to arrange a similar portable pocket sized survival kit…
