Medical Supplies

Despite the fact that no movie ever seems to pay attention to this fact, you will need medical supplies. Whether it be band aids or penicillin, somethings going to happen where you will need them. Chances are most pharmacies were looted in the beginning, so try a less obvious location first. You know that one friend you have that's always sick? You know who I'm talking about, everyone has one, go to his house. Chances are you'll find everything from ibuprofen to a mysteriously acquired cure for AIDS. If this is not a viable option (too far away, burned down, etc...) try a gas station, they won't have much but at least you'll get some pain killers, and maybe crack.

Avoid hospitals and clinics, chances are thats where everyone went in the beggining and the places are crawling with zombies. Instead, try private residences or, if you're feeling lucky, a college. Stick to a small one either community or one in a small town. All campuses have a student health clinic, and it should have some of the basic supplies you need. As a last ditch effort try a family planning clinic. They probably deal with STDs all th etime so they should have some antibiotics on hand.
