“Should I be preparing for WW3, a 90-day blackout, or the holidays? Because I don’t have the money for all 3”

In October and November 2026, many nations told its citizens to prepare with 90 days of food. No specific reason was given, but many people assumed it had to do with war between the United States and Iran possibly escalating into World War III. However, many people had limited budgets and had planned to spend their money during this period on Christmas gifts.
