I get that ... duh.   But, I'm on the opposite end of the spectrum when it comes to hurricanes.  Our freezer is full so I try to eat anything possible in advance of the hurricane in preparation of things potentially spoiling if the power is out for an long-term period.  That said, I think the longest our power was out in any single duration was 10 hours for the hurricane that came up the east coast on the opening day of the the NFL when the Jags beat the Texans.  If I recall correctly, they cut the power from ~ midnight until 10am.

Our deep freezer is also full. I tried talking my husband into getting a generator for years but he wasn't going for it. When our county had that power outage in December due to sabotage I didn't ask him about getting one, I told him I was getting one. As I was getting into my truck. He didn't argue. Lol. 

There is no reason for all of that meat to go to waste, plus what is in our fridge at any given time. In December I had just gone grocery shopping the day before so our fridge was full. I wasn't losing all of that plus the deep freezer.
