Despite what she may have told you, that's not actually illegal. You could do it now, you don't need a purge day.
She could have a restraining order, redundant on purge day 
I'm not convinced that you've thought this one through...
The purge is mental in concept, realistically anyone who isn't normalised to crime is not going to go out and commit serious crime and the fact that you could be legally murdered would deter people just up for a bit of arson or vandalism.
Given that in the scenario the purge only happens in a single country I think most people would leave said country either for the duration or permanently.

Thermic lance, chop down all the speed/spy/ticket scameras.
Never seen the film so sorry if it makes this point but.. On a serious note, I wonder if you did it for real whether the rate at which stupids would remove themselves from society and the gene pool would be a fair price to pay for all the grief they'd cause?

Really like this film series actually, I live about 1 minute from a bank so I guess I'd rob that place then hide out the rest of it.
Mind you if the film is anything to by I wouldn't even make it to said bank.
The thing is, how many other people will have had the same idea as you to rob the bank? I'm guessing it'll be quite a few and I'd bet a lot wouldn't think twice about getting rid of someone else trying to get their hands on what they also want! Mind you if the film is anything to by I wouldn't even make it to said bank.
If it were me, I'd load my car up with camping equipment and a whole load of meat and beer, find a very isolated place and wait it out.

No "Get orrf moi laand!" but straight to the deadly force.
Problem with finding a remote spot and camping out is what do you return to. Reckon if you're normal folk is to hunker down, look after your stuff as best you can hoping that signs off occupation puts off the chancers with the notion that they themselves are under threat. It's like any other day, if someone really wants to nick your stuff or do you serious harm then they will.
Though attracted to the thought that I could, without official sanction, drive the front girder on the Defender through the side of the Beetle driven by the stupid b
h in Tesco car park this morning, too busy stuffing chocolate in her face to bother driving with any degree of care.
