Good questions.

Before you buy.

How will I get my PDF?

Pay through A Salty Mom’s existing Stripe checkout. After payment, use the purchaser download page to save the kit to your own device. Nothing is shipped.

Will it work on my phone or tablet?

Use a PDF reader that supports fillable forms. Save the PDF first, open the saved file in the reader, and save your changes there. You can also print as many pages as you need for your own household.

Can I use it for another trip?

Yes. Keep a blank original and save a fresh copy for each trip. The kit is for personal household use; please don’t resell or share the file.

Do the fields calculate totals?

No. You can type and check boxes, but the PDF does not calculate totals automatically.
