These seem cool for home water storage:

(If you actually want some, search for "Waterbrick". There are some 4, 8 and 10 packs that are cheaper per container.)
I bought a couple of these:

They're pretty good. Basic, rollable water storage. Really everyone should have something like this even if the only thing it saves you from is the inconvenience of going to the store to buy water during a water main break.
Long term food storage:

Dehydrated food in a can that can sit in your basement for 25 years. They have boxes of assorted single-serving packs you can buy, too, so you can try some without having to crack open a whole can. The single serving packs are also great for backpacking, even if you don't go very often -- they're good for 5 years. (The cans are too bulky for backpacking.) I've tried a number of the packs and they're all surprisingly good. (Except the pre-cooked eggs. I hear there's dehydrated raw eggs you can get that turns into a batter you can cook, and I hear those are great, but I've never seen any for sale.)
