Pannier Recommendations?

Hi everybody,

If you've been on the touring section, you've probably seen my posts and you're like wtf? who is this guy? stop filling up my beautiful forum .

But for those of you who haven't been on the touring forum, I'm biking across country this summer for Autism Speaks and the National Down Syndrome Society. I need a lot of help, so check out my other posts!

So I was talking to a teacher who is into biking, and she told me

a. I need front panniers to keep control when going up or down a steep hill, or at least more weight in the front.

b. Panniers will cost me $$$$$$$.

She also told me that she uses a milk crate for day trips, do you think it would be possible to have a front pannier, handlebar bag, and use a milk crate?

Thanks guys!
