Lidl have a few things next week.

I've never worked out who exactly the camp toilet is aimed at - it doesn't fit in my day sack, the caravan has one built in, and although it would fit in the boot of a car or a canoe, I can think of other things that would be higher priority.
I've never seen the need for those camp showers, but they're only £3.99 so I might splash out ::).

I bough one from Argos recently for about the same price, got to try it out at the weekend for the first time.

as you can see it wasn't exactly a power shower and i think i was asking a bit too much of it that particular day ::) but it was toasty warm and for that price well worth it, probably best place to use it would be by the beach to get the sand off the kids. Helps it you have a tall car though if using for adults.

I wonder what the Rocktrail all season sleeping bags with high quality insulating Thermolite® Quallo are actually like.

i went straight to that one as well, but no info on weight or temp ratings :'(

I'm guessing that for £29.99 it weighs <1Kg and rates to -14c :D

I've a lidl sleeping bag (as if you need to ask).
I've only ever used it car camping (my 9-man tent packs smaller and weighs about the same)
but it's good to below freezing, no problems with condensation or sweat, baffles are all in the right places, choice of materials is spot on and construction is typical Lidl 'decent quality'.
Good for £30, but don't be comparing it with a PHD Hispar 1200
