Just the for ladies (or those bokes with no shame). For 1 day only your Karrimor down jackets are less than £20 :shock:

Well done (again!). My wife was coveting my bargain order yesterday & we couldn't find the female version. Just ordered her one :mrgreen:

Well, our cheap Karrimor jackets arrived today (Monday afternoon...not bad considering I ordered them on Sunday morning!). The down isn't going to win any quality awards, but considering the price, they're a bargain. Not light (760g medium), but definitely a keeper for general mucking about on the farm where I'd be worried to damage my Western Mountaineering or PHD stuff.

Neoair thermarest mats

Post by Cornish Neil »

Been watching the price of Neoairs, (small) down to £50 at snow and rock, just ordered one :D
Time would be better spent getting the miles in instead of fretting about how many ml of meths to carry...

Strolled into town at lunch and visited the clearance section in WHSmith.
They're selling off selected OS maps for £1.

Got the OL23 map which covers Mach and NE of Mach.

That's interesting, 'cos when we did the Radnor Ring, you were rubbish with the map reading and I had to take over ;)

wow bargain prices indeed on those mats.

40% off Gore Bike Wear stuff at Lex's. Finally I found a decent enough reduction on the Alp-X GT shorts to order some... http://www.lexs.co.uk/Default.aspx?Bran ... ike%20Wear

Looks like a cock up on the website as jackets are now £90 odd. Wish I'd stuck an order in this morning ;-)

Field&Trek have got 30% off various lines until Sunday ... the discount gets applied at the checkout, so the price on the site is less 30%.

At the moment you could get a Karrimor down gillet for £17.50. I managed to get some Terra Nova goretex over mitts for less than £20 (rrp is £45). Terra Nova Adventure tarps also have 30% off.

Nope no self control at all. Oh well, I also ordered one of these...

It's not exactly going to be stunning quality, but I've been looking for some cheap camping stuff for the family, and less than £60 for a family tent, two double airbeds, one double & two single sleeping bags and a lantern, ain't too bad :shock: At least it means my nice quality kit won't get trashed on the family trips.
