Christmas is around the corner, and plenty of companies that sell prepping supplies and survival gear are running countdown sales leading up to it. They approach it differently- a few move the 12 days further out to account for shipping, if they do most of their business online. Either way, the winter sales are a good opportunity to get those last-minute gifts, use up FSA funds, or round out a survival kit before 2026 gets here.
For the most part, the deals are on emergency food storage and tactical gear. They are usually flash sales on specific gear or supplies, designed to look like an Advent calendar, in a way. We thought they were good enough to round up and share, so here are all of the countdown deals on prepping and survival gear leading into Christmas.

Augason Farms
Augason Farms is running their 12 Days of Preparedness this year, with limited-time deals on different categories of their emergency food.
- The first sale was for 25% off pantry pouches. They call it a stocking-stuffer, but I would have a tough time fitting pantry pouches in my stocking.
- Right now, they are running a BOGO on all Milk & Cookie ingredients.
We’ll add their other deals as they go live, because we don’t have any early notice of what is coming.
Visit Augason Farms’ 12 Days of Preparedness to build your prepper pantry for the holidays.
BladeHQ
BladeHQ always goes strong for the holidays, and this year is no exception. Their pre-holiday sales had plenty of strong markdowns, but their countdown deals are consistently good and prompted us to make this roundup to begin with.
The type of knife you are looking for affects when you should pull the trigger on your purchase. I’m personally hitting the buy button on the 14th to get a few knives for our testing, and that’ll get me the Boke Plus L’Egg Neck Knife for testing, too.
Here is what you need to know:

Head over to BladeHQ’s Twelve Blades of Christmas to use the free knife codes stacked on top of their winter sales.

The Final Word
While the Christmas and holiday season is a great time to get deals, I hope you all stay centered and focus on having a good time with family and friends. Holiday shopping is secondary to everything else, and consumerism is certainly not the reason for the season. Don’t let yourself get caught up or overwhelmed; I like to take a beat to remember to be thankful for everything I already have.
This is our last sale roundup before Christmas, so with that in mind, I wish you all a very merry Christmas and hope there is a bit of magic for your holidays, whether it’s those small, cherished moments with family or good laughs with friends.
