This wiki/blog post is helpful but here is a past comment I made as an answer:
A fitness mat (thicker) is nice for the plyo day (easier on the knees) but you otherwise want a thinner mat (e.g., yoga mat).
Resistance bands or weights. I have bands and might break down and buy weights. It is just easier and more intuitive. They are fairly expensive though...
Pull-up bar. I think this bar works well and it's not too hard to put together. Bonus: bands.
Chair for certain exercises.
Yoga blocks. I have not used them and you can get away without them but I can see their use. They make stretches easier (or harder) and are demonstrated in p90x.
Protein shake and bars. I hear the p90x products are actually very good but they're definitely expensive. I opted for Optimum Nutrition Whey Powder with a cheap blender bottle and these bars after a little research on /r/fit and google.
Lots of water and even more motivation! It feels like such an accomplishment after each day though. Off to go do Plyo for week 3!
Ninja Edit: Heart rate monitor and push up bars are two very optional but very useful items that I plan to invest in soon.
I have this set and I like it a lot. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003V5JQ2O/ref=oh_details_o01_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
So just make sure the bar is secured correctly on the trim of the door frame before you attempt to use it. Almost gave myself a concussion once by starting a pull up and literally pulling the bar down onto my head and knocking me to the ground. Safety first!
Thanks for all your help. I ended up going with this one - http://www.amazon.com/Black-Mountain-Products-Heavy-Resistance/dp/B003V5JQ2O/ref=sr_1_5?s=sporting-goods&ie=UTF8&qid=1310606536&sr=1-5. First day on Saturday!
