Summer sleeping bags - anywhere selling them cheap?

Looking for a summer (1 tog ish) sleeping bag for dd, 14 months. I'd like something cheap as poss as we'll only use it when it's really hot and as most of the sizings are 6-18 months she'll grow out of it in a few months anyway. Has anyone seen one in the supermarket or anywhere else cheap?

Have you tried TK Maxx? Grobags were about £12-14 last time I looked, and other brands were cheaper.

When DS was a baby I got some made out of one layer of t shirt fabric from Tesco for less than a fiver. That was 3 years ago, but I have seen similar in there since.

Bumping. I have a couple of 1.5tog from Tesco I bought recently, but would like 1 tog or as light as poss.

DS5mo just in a vest with a sheet covering him tonight, I've had him in bags for ages so now am worrying about him kicking the sheet over his head!

Yes, I'm looking too. Got a 5 month in nothing but a grobag (and vest) and, though I need a lightweight one he's likely to grow out of it so quickly. No chance of him settling under a sheet.

I got one in primark thats very thin think it's standard for them since they are so cheap but i would only use it in very hot weather.

I made my own for vvv hot weather using a vest and a pillow case for the bag bit. I've never seen one that thin sold, it was just the ticket.
I found even the 0.5 or 1 tog grobags too hot

If you don't fancy sewing one the grobag 0.5 bags are the next best thing

Thanks - I'll try tesco then, sadly the nearest primark is a long way away. I like the idea of making one, and had wondered about that, might give it a go if I can't find one elsewhere. Dd went to sleep in just pyjamas last night but woke up in the middle of the night feeling a bit cold, so think I need something.
