My husband and I share one bug out bag and there is another bigger one for our son. The reason for this is because my husband is disabled and would not be able to carry a bag for very long. I would not be able to carry every thing we would need in one bag so some of our stuff is also in my son's bag.
In our bag I keep:
a month's worth of meds for both me and my husband.
4 pairs of socks a piece and 4 pair of underwear and a bra for me.
6 packages of tuna

Fresnal lense
a pair of pot holders
3 rain ponchos
2 bars soap
towel
large trash bags
toilet paper
a roll of paper towels that have the roll taken out and flattened
foil
a box of gallon ziploc bags to keep our feet dry if our shoes get wet
Next to the bug out bags I keep a picnic basket filled with:
Two blue speckled pots
One stove top coffee pot
4 metal camping plates
4 metal camping coffee cups
a set of metal cooking utensils
a pair of pot holders
The picnic basket sits on top of a milk crate which has a 10 inch cast iron skillet
and a cast iron dutch oven. If we have time we will grab the picnic basket and milk crate. If not we will leave it behind
Next to all of this is my husband portable oxygen machine and his portable nebulizer. These are kept in their own bug out bag and will be the first one grabbed.
I change out the food a little each month. The batteries I change out at each time change. The meds are changed out every month for newer prescriptions.
So that is what in our bug out bags what is in your?
