I suggest ammo (OR) reloading items , food stuffs and ammo.
We're teetering on the edge of another 1929 and or 1989 collapse. Stocks are roller coasting , petroleum is down per bbl while pump prices stay (why) in the mid $3. range . Food prices have gone nothing but up.
Ebola seems to be popping up in densely populated / urban areas, yet no ban on flights from the dark continent.
If we leave the local area, we have more than 1 firearm to get us back to home base. It's not if it will happen, but when it will happen. YMMV

To be fair, I have also invested as much as I can afford to in ammo, reloading components, long-lasting food, home protection methods, and disaster preps such as plastic sheeting, good masks, gloves, etc. Just bought a decent radio. I'd really like to get another G19 to travel with. Similar to your and rbeau's comments, we have also changed the way we travel and the things we travel with if we are going more than a 2 hour drive from home. I had a very hard time dealing with the limitations of flying commercially back to Michigan 2 weekends ago. I felt very naked and helpless.
