HomicidalGoat Posted June 21, 2022 Report Share Posted June 21, 2022 Thought I might start a thread for people's quick questions about what they do and don't sell at Glastonbury. I've packed and headed off now but realised I've forgotten some key items, I'm sure others might be in the same boat. 🙂 Will I be able to buy: Individual tent pegs Grinders (for the morning coffee of course) KOMBUCHA Rope? NOT STRING OTC medicine beyond painkillers (laxatives etc.) Fresh fruit, mainly bananas I'm looking for. Straws Thank you in advance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moogster Posted June 21, 2022 Report Share Posted June 21, 2022 Pretty sure you'll find fruit and bananas. Someone asked about grinders in another thread and I believe the answer was yes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1986 Posted June 21, 2022 Report Share Posted June 21, 2022 Only thing I can't see being readily available will be rope. Most basic food and meds will be at the coop I imagine. My sort of similar question, are we to expect a free tote on entry? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

discgoesmic Posted June 21, 2022 Report Share Posted June 21, 2022 I would highly recommend buying blister patches before you go. I'll never forget when a stall tried to charge me £8 for a pack of 3 some years ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NOT STRING OTC medicine beyond painkillers (laxatives etc.) Fresh fruit, mainly bananas I'm looking for. Straws Thank you in advance There are usually several camping stalls that will be able to sort you out with tent pegs and rope. Try the main market but if you walk around market areas you'll usually find one. Over the counter medicine you will be able to get at the little pharmacy stall, Ranking my brains for where it is. I think just up from Williams Green. Probably coop as well. Fruit - there are fruit stands dotted around. Failing that coop. Not sure about kombucha, grinders or straws but I'm sure you'll find them somewhere. Straws are likely not to be plastic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fruit from Co op, but there are fruit stalls I believe too. Doubt anyone will be selling straws but obviously some bars will have. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
serendipitous Posted June 21, 2022 Report Share Posted June 21, 2022 Can anyone remember if the prices for rolling tobacco are horrifically inflated or just quite inflated? It's payday Friday and I'd rather keep the money for food/drinks on Wednesday and Thursday rather than buying beforehand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember the woman shrugged and said 'meh, it'll ruin your festival if you don't buy them' and I responded 'no it bloody wont' and dealt with the myself. Luckily it didn't 😀 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's payday Friday and I'd rather keep the money for food/drinks on Wednesday and Thursday rather than buying beforehand. In past years it has either been much higher than normal real world prices (2009 and preceding years), a bit lower than normal (2010-2017 when it was cheaper than I pay locally) and then about the same as normal (2019). Expect anywhere from normal pricing to a little higher, I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only asking in case mine breaks or gets lost. Was thinking they may sell disposable ones as they’re everywhere these days, not really in keeping with the ethos of the festival though so you’re probably right Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
