secondtimelucky Posted April 9, 2013 Report Share Posted April 9, 2013 BM Bargains and Quality Save are the places to go E.g BM have Baby Wipes 100 for 99p. They are usually good for snacks like crisps and cereal bars too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks alright. Build quality isn't setting the world alight but should do a job for five days. Edited April 10, 2013 by Messy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FrankieX Posted April 11, 2013 Report Share Posted April 11, 2013 That head lamp looks pretty similar to the one from Poundland HERE which obviously costs about 4x less. The Aldi spring walking & fishing sale starts Thursday 18th and all the items that will be available are listed HERE. Objects of interest include walking boots, neoprene wellies, gaiters and various items of clothing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oliveoyl Posted April 11, 2013 Report Share Posted April 11, 2013 Not specific item/place to buy, but car boot sales have been a treasure trove for me - last summer I got a brand new 4 berth tent for £5 and a mini stove with gas cannister for £1.

James Bolivar Posted April 11, 2013 Report Share Posted April 11, 2013 Not a bargain, but this looks very handy: http://www.ultralightoutdoorgear.co.uk/montbell_crushable_lamp_shade.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LusciousLucy Posted April 11, 2013 Report Share Posted April 11, 2013 Oh yes, I must start getting to the boot sales.I got my waterproof frogs at the last pre G one I attended. Wear your trainers but with over wellies on! Will keep an eye out for tents and tat. I just bought myself a 20,000Ah Power Bank charger off Fleabay. Probably fake from China but heyho, if it gives anywhere near the amount of charges I am hoping it will, its £15 well spent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paf_82 Posted April 12, 2013 Report Share Posted April 12, 2013 Can anyone recommend any good gaitors? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Bolivar Posted April 12, 2013 Report Share Posted April 12, 2013 Can anyone recommend any good gaitors? My Lowe Alpines have lasted years and are pretty good; the under-foot strap is replaceable. Mountain Hardware are among the best, though all Gore-Tex gaitors are similar. If you don't want to plastic look of Gore-Tex then Barbour do waxed cotton gaitors. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Krazypinkminx Posted April 13, 2013 Report Share Posted April 13, 2013 Just picked up a few things in the clearance section at mountain warehouse, 2 x dry sacks, normally £15 got for a £1 each, 2 litre water pouch, perfect for my backpack for homemade toffee vodka for £1, also got in 98p store a large PVC pink mat for sitting on in the sun (rain,shhhhhhhh NFR NFC) and a emergency shelter, you know a massive space blanket with rope. For either under my mattress,between 2 tents for bit of shade in the day, or anyone that may be at deaths door,lol my little glasto pack is coming along nicely, got baby wipes on offer, could not find the recommended foot gel in boots, may need to look in a bigger one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oliveoyl Posted April 14, 2013 Report Share Posted April 14, 2013 One year when I was there I bought a really thick piece of foam from one of the stalls at the festival, that was a luxury. Seem to remember it didn't cost very much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dj_tim Posted April 17, 2013 Report Share Posted April 17, 2013 What's everyones feelings on gazebos? Personally I think that as long as they're only taking up the space between tents that would normally be left for chairs etc anyway, they're fine. Just noticed Asda are doing them for £16. http://direct.asda.com/ASDA-2.4m-Gazebo/001679699,default,pd.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
