If your plan A after a power outage is to wait 3 weeks and then try to cash a check at the bank... you better get working on plan B....

As for banks having generators, ya, they usually have them, its just the morons working as tellers have no idea about them. Most are not even allowed in the basement, much less would they ever want to go there. Same with grocery stores, convience stores and gas stations; most have them but the mininum wage workers (that want $15 an hour, but are worth about $5) have no idea about them. So sales and check cashing will be no problem. In fact, it will be rather "brisk"... right up till there is nothing left to sell or money to cash.

Dont matter though, if you are going to come out 3 weeks into some event like wide spread power outage, unless its regional and trucks are still freely running, then everything will be long sold out. Everything will be gone in about 3 days. After 3 weeks, expect the "natives" to be pretty restless, if you know what I mean.

If you want to know what would happen if the power went off for 3 weeks, just look in the past. We have had some good hurricanes that has shown what happens if we loose power in smaller areas like the coast, scale things up from there if you think it would happen in a larger area. Just as the outage covers a larger area, things get worse 10 fold because it that much harder for outside areas to help support and rebuild the affected area. If the lights shut down on a national level... things are going to get ugly real quick...
