Would an MRE group buy be feasible?

I just read an excellent post on another forum where they did a group buy on www.meyerscustomsupply.com MREs and it cost them about $63/case of 12 including shipping. It would have to be regional or the reshipping would negate the savings. Thoughts?

If it were not for the difficulty of reshipping that you mention, I would be interested. But $63 is not that much less than what they will be going for on Ebay in a couple of months when hurricane season is over.

I bit the bullet and bought 3 cases off Ebay last February. I plan to rotate them by eating one case per year (hunting, hiking, etc.) while replacing it with the current year's batch. They augment my canned food supply nicely.

The problem with MREs is that they are bulky and heavy - a bad combination when shipping comes into the picture.
To make things worthwhile there needs to be at least a half-pallet purchase, and then no re-shipping involved.

Malpaso, go to www.beprepared.com they have good prices for groups my city placed an order with them (500 complete food and water kits) $45.00 ea. I had to go pick them up but they loaded my trailer worth the piece of mind it brings
