Bournemouth bargins

TKMaxx have got some cheap Outdoor Designs gaiters and Bivvy bags as well as the usual craghopper and sprayway fleeces.

The new Field and Trek shop across the road has some good opening offers on smaller stuff. I got some smartwool socks for £7.

Ultimate Outdoors have reduced practically their whole clothing range by 10%. They also offer a club discount on top of this for organisations such as BMC and Ramblers. Whilst anything like this is good do shop around as some items are still cheaper elsewhere.

Has noone come across a bargain recently? That is a poor show. Apart from my little post Sept 7th the last bargain was the end of July! Come on guys and gals let us know your bargain buys.

Joe Brown is doing a Rab generator primaloft smock for £69 in both shop and online shop. I think that meets the requirements for a bargain. Only in the denim colour though. IMO the denim (kind of sparkly blue) is the best colour to have it in anyway. RRP is abotu £110.

I still use Hexi occasionally, as like it in the little Gelert packs of the round solid fuel tab 24’s especially really. Gelert packs of hexi are reduced down to 95p each at Trespass outdoors stores right now countrywide. My local one is inside County Mall at Crawley, West Sussex.

Also of interest to the fishermen here, and to bushcrafters too just maybe, or great for the garden when trying out stoves etc, or for Darren or other bloggers like Baz who might like one as a backdrop to stove tests fims etc, there is a great fishing shelter going for a song right now online too! I just bought a couple of these as they are quite good looking, I had actually wanted one like these, and they are here just at such a silly price now, with postage and packing being just a pound extra on top per delivery! Originally sold on the Readers Union website for about seventeen quid, now down to just four pounds ninety nine only! Well worth having I felt, it is kinda like a half tent section really and the construction quality looks fairly good, and the unit comes in a nice green long little carry bag as well. Great for car camping maybe as an extra windbreak too even, or for campsite privacy. rubooks.co.uk nb the fishing shelter is in the clearance sale section at the moment. Well worth searching out there really!

OK, Yes I do love this thread here and am determined to keep it going lol!

First up then is Argos again – Their new catalogue is out now, still a good range of outdoors bits and pieces, mostly for the starters to the outdoors life though obviously. That Tiger Paws tent one man in International Orange is still there, as is a rather good interesting sleeping bag, a down one for about twenty-five quid too also from Pro Action.
