We've probably got enough canned goods and dry beans stored up to last 3 months but don't really have a good way to store any water.  We try to keep our canned goods rotated to keep them from going out of date.  We also have a good bit of ammo stored up just in case it would ever get to the point where people would try to take stuff from us.  We are not fanatical about it; just don't want to be caught off guard in the event of any kind of emergency.

I have a survival kit with a ton of stuff i was able to piece together including a radio, emergency blankets, flashlight and some food bars. I keep it in a nice backpack in case i ever need it.
