# Work Out Who Gets Which Holiday For The Next Few Years — Free

Enter the holidays and how many years to plan, and get an alternating allocation with a count per parent, a fairness check, and the years each one still has to wait. Runs locally.

**Free and complete.** This guide is a standalone free tool — no account, no card, anywhere. The only paid option is one optional extra outcome: $4 one-time. Nothing in the free tier is gated.

## Who it's for

Separated or co-parenting families who re-litigate the same holiday every year because nobody wrote the pattern down

## What's free

- Unlimited holidays and years
- Alternating allocation with a starting parent
- Per-parent counts and a fairness check

## Optional paid add-on

**$4 one-time.**

- Printable grid — the allocation on one sheet — estimate: ~15 min saved.
- Saved arrangements — up to 4 in this browser — estimate: ~10 min saved.
- Year-by-year summary — each year under its parent — estimate: ~12 min saved.

## Sources & verification

- Tool: Local alternation allocator (no model needed)
- Primary source: the free tool itself (local-first, no external dependency)
- Last verification: 2026-09-12 (green)
