This page is where we’ll keep the simple tools and calculators we create for Two Mugs and a Plan.
They are designed to be practical, easy to use, and helpful for everyday decisions around the home. Some may help with planning, comparing, estimating, converting, or thinking things through before spending money, starting a job, or making a household choice.
We are not trying to make complicated professional tools. The idea is to have small, useful helpers that suit ordinary life, ordinary budgets, and ordinary situations.
Use them as a guide, not as a final answer. Your own circumstances, local prices, safety needs, product instructions, and personal judgement still matter. But sometimes a simple tool can make a decision clearer, save a bit of time, or help you avoid a mistake.
We’ll add more tools here as the website grows.
Cooking measurements can be confusing, especially when one recipe uses cups, another uses grams, and another uses temperatures or measurements from a different country.
This simple kitchen quantity converter helps you quickly change common cooking measurements into the units you need. You can convert cups, millilitres, tablespoons, teaspoons, grams, ounces, kilograms, pounds, Celsius, Fahrenheit, kilojoules, and calories.
Prices can change quickly, and the cheapest option is not always the first one you find. This tool helps you search for a product in your local area, check online delivery options, and compare prices more carefully before you buy.
Enter the product you are looking for, such as Granny Smith apples, laundry liquid, work socks, or paint rollers. You can also add a brand, type, variety, location, or maximum price if you want a more specific search.
Potatoes are one of the most commonly eaten foods in the world, but their nutrition can vary depending on the type of potato, serving size, and preparation method. This Potato Nutrition app lets you quickly compare several common potato types, including white, russet, red, gold, purple, and sweet potatoes.
Simply choose a potato type and serving size to see estimated nutrition information, including calories, carbohydrate breakdown, dietary fibre, sugars, starch, vitamins, minerals, and more. The app also shows approximate Daily Value percentages and a visual guide to help make the information easier to understand at a glance.
Sometimes the cheapest-looking product is not really the cheapest at all. One packet might be smaller, another might be priced in ounces, and another might look like better value just because the number on the shelf is lower.
This calculator helps you compare products properly by bringing them back to the same unit.
