Have a multitool with tools that are very hard or impossible to open, despite cleaning and oiling? The bolts may be too tight. If the bolt has an asterix indentation, it requires a Torx key aka star hex key.
⚠ Don't losen bolts too much, or the blades may unsheath in your pocket!

"Do It Yourself" (DIY) gear alteration.
Want the very fancy $36 emergency bivy, but can only afford the fancy $8 emergency blanket?
Maybe you or someone you know has supplies that can bridge the gap.
(Gratitude to the person who shared the idea!)

Tips for prepping on a budget
A thread:
1. Spread out the cost. Put a kit together over the course of 1-2 years. (I only just got double AA batteries this month.)
2. Shop the sales - frequent sale-checking boosts success.
(These paper bowls were on massive sale today!)
