Why this plan

The official checklist tells you what to have. This plan tells you how much, in what order, and for how little.

How much

An estimate of water, meals and supplies for 3, 14 and 30 days, sized to your household, pets included.

In what order

A one-weekend start plan, then a 12-week build that adds a few items to each normal grocery run.

For how little

Shopping lists for $100, $300 and $1,000, in priority order. Start with what you already own.

What you get

Five tools, one download

The Home Readiness Plan (36-page guide)

Nine essentials, three tiers, checklists for each, and what to do in the first hour of a power outage. Official guidance is quoted and sourced throughout.

Budget Shopping Lists

What to buy first on $100, $300 or $1,000, plus a 12-week tracker.

Family Emergency Binder

12 printable sheets: contacts, medicines, documents, insurance and your household plan.

30-Day No-Power Menu

Four weeks of meals that need no fridge and no cooking, with one shopping list.

How it works

Start this weekend. Finish at your own pace.

Enter your household

Five minutes in the calculator: people, children, babies and pets.

Do the Weekend Start Plan

About four hours over one weekend to cover the three-day essentials.

Build a little at a time

A few items per grocery run: 14 days in about six weeks, 30 days in about twelve.

Three tiers

Go as far as your home and budget allow

72 hoursThe three-day essentials

Everything the official guidance asks for, sized to your household.

14 daysTwo weeks of margin

For homes that want more room for error. Built over about six weeks.

30 daysA month, if it suits you

Food, water you can make safe, light, warmth and power for the long haul.

The 30-day tier is this plan's own recommendation, not an official requirement.

Who it's for

Not a prepper. Just prepared.

Made for

  • Families who want to be ready without turning the house into a warehouse
  • Anyone looking after babies, older relatives or pets
  • People in apartments and small homes (there's a storage chapter for that)
  • Anyone who read the official advice and thought: OK, but where do I start?

Not for

  • Bunkers, gear reviews or doomsday scenarios. This is a calm, practical household plan.
  • Medical advice. The guide shows you what to ask your doctor or pharmacist; it doesn't replace them.

Questions

Good questions, straight answers

Is this official government advice?

No. It's an independent guide built on official guidance, which it quotes and sources throughout. The longer tiers are this plan's own recommendations. In an emergency, always follow instructions from the emergency services and your local authority.

Do I need to spend a lot?

No. Most homes already own half of the first tier. The budget lists start at $100, and the 12-week build adds about $25 a week per adult, a few items per grocery run.

I live in a small apartment. Will this work?

Yes. There's a chapter on storage in small spaces, and the plan shows how to cover water without filling every closet.

How do I get it?

Straight after payment you'll get an email with your download links: four PDFs and the calculator, which you can open in Google Sheets or Excel.

Is this for preppers?

It's for normal households. No bunkers, no fear, no gear obsession. Just a calm plan you can finish.

Can I print it?

Yes. Everything is designed to print well, especially the checklists and the binder sheets.

What if it's not for me?

Email us within 30 days of buying and we'll refund you in full.
