For those who don't want to take the time and effort necessary to build a first aid kit, these ready-made kits offer a quick way to stock the medicine cabinet or car. Ready-to-use, however, doesn't always mean the best bet.

Johnson & Johnson First Aid To Go

Johnson & Johnson First Aid To GoRod Brouhard
This is the perfect kit for most people. Most first aid kits do not need to have tons of supplies. The most severe injury at most homes is the occasional skinned knee or maybe a cut finger during meal prep. This kit contains the absolute basics.

One of the cool things about Johnson & Johnson first aid kits is that J&J makes Band-Aid and Tylenol as well as several other brands you've definitely heard about. I'm a believer in generic medications, but when it comes to bandaging supplies, quality is definitely better with the name-brands.

This first aid kit has a soft case and would be a good option for an RV or car. I priced the contents of this first aid kit and found it to be a good value.

Durable, shmurable -- soft cases can go where hard cases can't. This is almost identical to the hard-case version, but zippered into a soft, pliable, canvas case.

First Aid Only All Purpose First Aid Kit, 299 Piece SoftpackPricegrabber
Lots of stuff. This is the biggest pack of all those listed here, but it contains the exact same items -- just more of them. This is only necessary if the kit is for several people to use at one time. Otherwise, the kit can just be restocked as needed.
