Sleeping bags for cheap

Hi guys

Me and my partner have a party to attend to next week and part of the theme is everyone is bringing a tent. Its this weekend and its too late to get anything from ebay. Does anyone know where to find some - we will keep them for the music festivals too. We don't really want expensive ones.

Thanks

    Milletts? Blacks? Look in your local paper? Do you have a military shop near you - the one near us sells them and not too expensive especially as you will need one to keep the rain out when using for music festival! HTH a little!

    try Asda and Aldi, they usually have some thing cheap in there. Aldi are very good for that kind of thing. Also there is also Argos too !

    Tesco Value sleeping bags are £6.97 each. They also had other camping stuff but I don't know how much the prices were.

    Just bought a couple for my boys as they'd outgrown their childrens sleeping bags, and they seem ok for light use, such as sleeping in the garden during the summer hols!
    Here I go again on my own....
  • Hi Home Bargains if you have one nearby - 2 man tent £9.99. Pretty good (I ended up sleeping out in it with my son and his mate and there was plenty room - all packs up in a neat bag. Also they had sleeping bags I think £4.99

    Happy camping!!

    I went into Blacks today, and they are doing a set of two man tent, pump up mattress and two sleeping bags for £100. They guy in the shop said he sold the bags for £40 each on ebay as well, so they must be alright.

    In the end, my girlfriend got 2 from argos for 20 quid each. But we had a five pound voucher anyway.
