I can't believe I failed to mention this previously, but as far as the quantity of food you'll have to buy goes, it's almost imperative that you get a Costco membership. I only say "almost" because there are times when your local supermarket (the one that sells bulk items) just might sell items for cheaper. Most of the time, however, you'll save enough money to more than pay for the annual membership fees.
And to add one more thing: Remove unneeded packaging (recycle it!), and label the items with the date of purchase. Keep an inventory, including the dates, and stay on top of it. The last thing you want is to be surrounded by food that's gone bad because eight years have gone by since you first stored your emergency provisions and you can't go shopping because it's Zombie Day at the mall.
