Aldi camping

wow - some bargains on there Anyone know about the quality?

Its generally pretty good and always good value.

I'm seriously tempted by the self inflating mat for dd2, she's the ultimate roller and ended up underneath her Ready Bed most nights last week. But we really don't need any more stuff - ooh I like the UFO light too.

Don't let me near the store

Does anyone know what those self-inflating mattresses are like?

Tell you what Surfermum, go and try it out in store on Sunday for us

That would get a few funny looks!

They're supposed to be really good surfer.

lol I could get dh to try one

DS slept on an Aldi self inflating mat for a few months when he had a bad back - and he was fine.

We took them all camping recently, but the concensus was that DH & DD preferred our air beds.

In that awful wind & rain, some frinds were in an Aldi tent and it wasn't very well designed. The water got in underneath as the bottom of the tent was a bit flappy. Apparently it has never leaked through the top but the wind/rain combination finished it off.

We use the Aldi camping torches and other accessories, but for major items like tents I would probably avoid and go for a higher HH (min 3000)

I think I'll avoid them then. Mind you I normally drink enough not to care what I'm sleeping on .

Dh wants one of the hammocks. I might get him on for father's day. I can just see me lying in it, ipod on, reading a book, glass of wine in my hand.

Oh Millways - where did you go for Whitsun? Did you end up at Bere Regis?

No, we went back to Britchcombe Farm. The owner is amazing. She barred off the whole field until we had spread out enough (50+ campers) and never charges us when we bail out early - which has now happened 2 Whitsins in a row!!

The tents have a good rep for the price surfer. I don't know what hh they have sold previously but this one is 4000.

We've just bought the tent and put it up. I don't think it would cope with any extreme weather but seems sturdy enough and i could get it up on my own so a good weekend tent for us.

have you used it yet dusty?

Hello fellow campers. I have just bought from Aldi 2 double flocked airbeds at 9.99 each and a electric cooler for 29.99 both cheaper than Go Outdoors which is the cheapest place round here for camping things. Bargin.

Not yet NA. We hope to get away next weekend but we are also getting a Norfolk Lake which will hopefully arrive next week and I'm not sure which tent we'll use. It should be the Aldi one as we bought it for short stays but I may be too excitied by the NL and have to use that
