Low budget solution: Like indyfabz wrote above in
#3 , I would put everything in waterproof bags inside panniers. Slider-lock style freezer bags would probably work, available in quart, 1 gallon and 2 gallon volumes. Dry bags are more durable and more expensive initially, but possibly cheaper than disposable freezer bags in the long run.

I've used these for several trips in the muck and rain. No leaks yet. Either in my pannier or bungy directly to my rack. Even when not wet I use one for my dirty clothes. I always have ziplock bags too.
