I wanna buy a tent

Does anyone know of any camping sites which have a sale on at the moment. I am looking out for a tent, preferably with 3 bedrooms and also sewn in ground sheet. I went to our local camping place yesterday and saw a decent one for £245.

Thanks in advance :D

    Try Argos, they have some great value tents in there. We bought ours from there last year, sleeps 8 for £129.99.

    Halfords (unusually) may be worth a look, they were having a sale on outdoor goods 2 weeks ago, and it may still be on. They had a small selection of different sized tents, from small to huge. Information could also be on their website.

    I picked up a two bedroom one from Halfords, down from £200 to £100. Included two blow up mattresses, four sleeping bags, and a couple of lamps. There was a tear in the side of the bag, so the supervisor gave me an extra tenner off. That was a weekend offer, so it may have expired.

    Thats a very good buy, very impressed.
    I never even gave Halfords a thought, to be honest I didnt even know they sold tents.

    Thanks for your help guys, muchly appreciated.

    Millets have reduced all their tents. Bought a really big 4 person 3 room tent today complete with sleeping bags and airbeds for £119.
