Default Cheap camping supplies

Going for a **** up weekend away with the guys soon and I’ll be needing some gear.

I’m after a tent and one of those blow up bed’s and maybe a few bit’s and bob’s for cooking with.

I’ve all ready got a sleeping bag so no need for that.


Got my 12v minifridge at the ready and a few crates of beer.

www.towsure.co.uk ; also in Sheffield; better than CCC on a lot of stuff but not everything; they have branches in other locations now too. CCC specialise in outdoor pursuits more whilst with Towsure its caravaning.

CCC are also very good Pete; they both have their strengths; if youre a caravaner Towsure would be best.

Do you have a towbar on your 2000 'Wagon then?

I think if you are really looking to save the pennies, try Argos that could be the one stop shop for all you need, not designed for heavy use but i have had lots of gear out of there over the years and lasted well.

Have a look in Halfrauds, they seem to have a sale on every other week. I know the tent prices were pretty good.

Question

I've got a small two-man tunnel type tent here, fibreglass poles, nylon outer, cotton inner, used once only.

£5 to you plus p&p or collected.

I agree - £39.99 gets you a 2 man tent, 1 sleeping bag, 1 65L rucksack and a foam mat!

RRP is £105 (to be taken with a pinch of salt!)

Sold the Rucksack separately for £30 everything else was then a £9.99 bargain. Seems to be pretty good quality aswell!
