Think that's what they were Rich. I picked my two fleece liners up yesterday 

Wonder why they didn't reduce them in store as well

Just for anyone still after the bags they have dropped the prices again. The mummy microlite is now 4.40, the mummy comfort is 5.20 and the fleece liner is now 2.00. Picked up all three using a tenner of clubcard vouchers and got change from a fiver, can't ask better really.

I got mine delivered yesterday!

When I was picking up my Microlite in the Glengormley store I noticed that they were £10 on the shelves.

Tried to buy a few more of the mummy comfort bags for xmas pressies, but alas out of stock now.

Anyone know what sorta size does the mummy comfort bags go down to?

Here's a photo of the Tesco comfort mummy sleeping bag and fleece liner beside a 2 litre carton of milk for size comparison.

I sense a loaded question

the stuff i've got so far is good value for money even at full price, although i didn't buy the tent, just 2 tins of beans and a loaf of bread, i know, you think i've overindulged, but hey, its christmas

What items have you bought that you feel weren't value for money?  It means others can avoid making the same mistake.

All the camping gear has gone back up in price again 

so tell me, how crap is the stuff from tesco's?

The value 6p custard powder is a hills dessert winner!!

Asda's 6p custard powder is also quite exceptional

I have to warn you I got this windbreak during the summer and took it back for a refund.  The poles are too flimsy and broke the first time i put it up.  For £3 it's not bad but just be aware!

Windbreaks are not waterproof. I have learnt this from experience,

This one is 'made of grey polyester tenting material'

No actual waterproof rating but for £3 I thought it was worth a go.

Like this 


I'll maybe get it out of the bag later to get a proper look at it.

I wonder if the £25 tent can still be found in store Definitely worth a look if you're passing. Although they're probably cutting way back on camping stuff on the run up to Christmas. What sort of person would go camping at this time of the year??

I finally got round to putting up the Tesco 6-man tent (or the giant slug as my kids referred to it).  Reckon I need a bigger garden!

I forgot to take a picture of the inside.  Basically the grey centre section is living space with a bedroom on either end.  Looks like a great job for dipping-the-toe-in for a bit of family camping.  When I say "dipping-the-toe-in", I really mean my wife joining the rest of the family.
