We have to go on vacation. Has anyone tried these?
We have a very small garden - 4 tomatos, 2 peppers.
It looks like I would need 1 for each individual plant.

I use a similar setup to water my tomatoes using 1 litre long neck plastic bottles cut off at the top with pin holes in the neck. It's good for tomatoes in particular because you're filling up the bottle and not splashing the soil up on the leaves. I find one bottle full a day in my tomato containers is adequate. If your tomatoes are in the ground, I'd give it a good watering before you go and have your MIL fill up the bottles as much as possible.
The other solution (no good for my tomatoes in containers) is a soaker hose on a timer. 90% of my veggies are watered this way. They get watered in shifts so that only four beds at a time (100' of soaker) is using at a time. Great to ensure early morning waterings when I'm usually counting sheep.
