Cheap tents

hallelujah

Hey all, Just wondering if any of you know where to get a cheap 1-man tent in Dublin. I'm talking in the range of €20. Move thread if needed mod..

Cheers.

Heheh, electric picnic time methinks
I really doubt you'll be doing a whole of sleeping. I'm buying an action man tent in Smyths toys and bringing a sleeping bag. If it rains I'll just kip in the 24 hour cinema. Lidl have some good ones but they're about 40+ if I remember correctly.

Moved from AH.

edit: I'll move this to Dublin City as I'm not sure if its an Outdoor Persuit thing you are after. No harm in asking in Gigs/Events. Theres also a thread there regarding a checklist, have a look there also.

Yea, its outdoor at a festival

have a look here: http://www.argos.ie/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?storeId=30001&langId=-1&catalogId=5251&productId=312742&Trail=C%24cip%3D45339.Sports%2Band%2Bleisure%3EC%24cip%3D45340.Camping%2Band%2Bcaravaning%3EC%24cip%3D45342.Tents&categoryId=45342&clickfrom=name

It looks Ideal for a once off use. And at €15 it can't be sniffed at.

You mean the lads over in Outdoor Pursuits don't use action man tents....?I taught this was the norm.

My sister got one in Tesco's for about 20blips..

Alternatively, there's places on Capel Street, Mary Street, and Talbot Street offering 2 man tents from 15euro..

Lidl is doing a 2-Men tent on Monday for 13.99.

Thanks all, got a two man tent for €15 in Argos. It leaked Friday night. So Sat night I pulled a flange and stayed in hers. *memories*

Some people occasionally give away tents on www.jumbletown.com for free, you could check it out for the future.

Action man tent?..would that not be a wee bit on the smallside?

My advice would be not to get the ones in dunnes ect. because EVERYONE has them which means lots of people opening your tent thinking its theirs

OOhh I wonder if the OP has found a tent since 2006.. I'm guessing they have.
