Thrifty Tip-Hurricane Flashlights

Ok, this one is a little different but that is because I am trying to get ready for Hurricane Isaac.  If you do not have flashlights and want to save money on them, I have an option for you.  You can use the solar lights that you have outside.  Most of the solar lights put out quite a bit of light. 

In addition, most of them have an off and on switch.  I would make sure that you put them in the sunniest part of your yard as soon as you know that a hurricane is headed your way.  Turn the lights to the off position to keep them charged until you need them.  After the hurricane passes through, if you are without electricity, I would put the lights out during the day to keep them charged.  Well, that is if you have sunlight.

  1. What a fantastic idea! I'm getting ready for the hurricane too and just pulled these out of the yard. I'm going to try it out....hopefully won't have to use it for too long though. :-)
