Sleeping Bags

[barkley87]

Hi,

Does anyone know of any good, cheap (no more than £20 ideally) and warm sleeping bags that fold away really small to pack? I do already own a sleeping bag but it's really bulky and you can't fold it down to any size that's easy to carry (i usually end up having to take an extra bag just to put the thing in!), so i'm considering investing in a new one to make my life a little bit easier.

Thanks!

Don't mean to be rude but are you male or female? Woman need sleeping bags that are 5-10 degrees warmer. Some people will struggle at Glastonbury with that. The minus 9 rating means you'll not die at that temp, but you'll not get a good sleep.

But it's a good price for £12.99, maybe add a fleece liner for £12 and it'll be cosy. But you'll always sacrifice pack size for price.

Drink so much that you won't realise the temperature!

Take a fleece to wear in the daytime/evening. Then if you're cold in your sleeping bag, put on the fleece too.

what are the opinions on this one? It's a bit more expensive than the other one and has the same -9 temperature, but is 3 season instead of 2. plus it looks like it packs up tiny!

however if the extra season doesn't make much difference i might just do the fleece thing. hm.

I got a new sleeping bag in Oswald Baileys last year for £20. It was on offer, about a week before glasto. Its really warm, folds down small and squeezes into one of them bag thingies that goes really small (you know what I mean, i cant think what they're called!) and is lovely. It was sooo toasty and warm last year!
