It's just a lovely soft pillowcase, about half size which you stuff with your clothes at the end of the day. Does the job perfectly and takes no space or weight. I suspect if you wanted a cheap equivalent you could just buy a full sized microfibre pillow case and use as is, or fold over.https://www.raymears.com/Bushcraft_Product/389-Therm-A-Rest-Trekker-Pillow-Case-Grey-Print/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure scammed would be the right word, given people are willingly walking into this knowing they're unlikely to get anything worth keeping.

Amazon would just refund if its a scam anyway, it seems to have lots of reviews im sure its ok. probably means the item is unboxed.

squirrelarmy Posted May 16, 2022 Report Share Posted May 16, 2022 What expected delivery dates have people got for their mystery boxes? I’ve got between the 1st and 9th of June. I’m hoping I get something that can be used at the festival. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reasonably cheap and come in a bag, I’ve been using the one I got in 2017 and it’s still going strong. No problem taking it home again once my bag doesn’t have any alcohol left in it. Get your tent set up and then have a wander towards the markets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was 5 years ago and I still had a working memory then. I know it wasn’t pricy enough to put off a Yorkshireman from getting out his wallet. The markets are great for picking up last minute essentials. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Travelling with a baby and I’d like to minimise the amount of stuff we’re carrying to site - we’ll have more room travelling back after we’ve exhausted our nappy and wet wipe supply.

They are usually well stocked with ponchos and wellies. Lifesaver for me in 2011. I was completely unprepared. There’s a lot of kids at Glasto so there probably will be a stall near the kidzfield or family camping for those supplies. Plus the co-op should be back this year too. Not sure if camplight is there this year as they have been taken off the latest version of the map but they sell airbeds, sleeping bags and possibly even tents. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
