There used to be a surplus store on 82nd in Portland just North of the Town Center that sold them. What the heck do you want those for? Yuck.

I hunt by myself alot and hate to clean up.
A typical days food while hunting:
breakfast- a bagel and two boiled eggs
lunch - skip it, just snack all day
dinner - bagel and can of tuna or chicken, sometimes I'll heat a can of something (in the can)

An MRE is starting to look tasty after a four week archery season!! :shocked:

Myles~ Check out the Surplus store on TV highway in Aloha, I know they use to have them. Not sure if you have to buy them by the case or not.

I use them while hunting and fishing, they pack great and the heaters are great for winter steelheading.

Go to one of the big gun shows at the Expo Center. There are usually several places that have loose ones for $3-$4. They might be a few years older than 'new' ones but if your gonna eat them in a few years it dont matter anyway :smile: Just mtcw

I second the Rose City Gun Collectors shows out at the Expo. They always have some good deals if you look and walk the whole thing. Looks like the next one is this Nov 15th-17th.
