Cheap kit bags.

[gand]

just been to go outdoors had a look at there bags thought a bit flimsy was passing a Cotswold outdoor shop had a look at there bags bought 2 a 140lt and a 100lt bag, was £70 down from £120 and £60 down from £110 totally waterproof,heavyduty and came with 2yr garruntee if you took a free store card.really good hard wearing bags and looks like they can take a bit of abuse,larger one going to be rigging bag and other one for climbing kit,going back later for another one for my second climbing kit and they are giving vouchers £10 off when you spend £60.Best bag I have found well worth the money.

 

If you know anyone involved with the Scouts you can also get up to 40% off their products by using their membership card

I use my old HiGear Cargo to hold my tent now, so bought a replacement at these silly low prices.

Paid £35 for my first one and thought it was a decent price at that. Used it as my suitcase and it has been around the world, was even my pillow for a while when camping in Australia.

I am surprised they are selling them so cheap tbh.

Its called a loss leader

 

They nail the manufacturer down on price with veiled threats about his stuff going in bad spots in the store and suchlike, then they knock em out at cost.

 

Gets people talking, foot fall through the door, membership renewals, and you invariably buy more than the loss item

 

Only person that suffers is the manufacturer:thumbdown:

Well the footfall trick didn't work with me because I bought it online.

[Gray git]

Ah well I got 6 for less than a 100 quid so I'm happy didn't get anything ells but was surprised by just how big the store was as never bothered going in before so I guess it sortoff worked on me as a new potential future customer found.

Every industry has loss leaders in 1 way or another even us, I often do it with little stump grinding jobs by doing them at almost cost at the end of the day if we take out the tree, it's extra revenue in little time while we are already there and the rg13 almost travels for free anyway.

You bought something, you looked around the store, virtual or not. Did you tick the "no thanks" box?

 

You are a customer now and that matters

[Peasgood]

Yes I did tick the box, always do.

I was a customer anyway, I like the shop and what they sell. Hence the first one costing me full price as posted above.

 

They've got 47kg Calor propane refill at £60.50 at the mo for anyone interested. Best price in my area.
