Don't know where to get bum bags from, but wouldn't a bottle of water be banging around a bit? Could you get a runners bottle instead?

I gto dh one from sports direct and it was about £5.

twoluvlykids · 17/08/2008 13:20

look at the ones for dog walkers.much cheaper & will be waterproof

used2bthin · 17/08/2008 13:22

yes good idea I probably should. The bumbag at sweatybetty had an elastic strap to hold it in place then enough room for light waterproof, keys, mobile etc. They also had plastic bottles for £5 but I bet I could get cheaper... Actually I have started running as I'm doing a charity race, I wonder if they give a free one out(bottle that is).

Ooh x posts with two of you. Where would I find dog walker ones do you know of anywhere? And Haylstones do you mean you got a bum bag thing or the bottle for £5? If the bumbag thats a bargain!

Dh bought one for three or four pounds from Aldi yesterday - holds two bottles and has a pouch.

twoluvlykids · 17/08/2008 13:27

dog walker - pet shops/garden centres or try on line sites - just put in something like dog accessories.

used2bthin · 17/08/2008 13:32

Oh ok thanks twolovelykids will try that. Shitehawk, we haven't got Aldi near here but that just shows how over priced the Sweaty Betty ones are!

I got the bumbag thing with a water bottle for (I think) about £6. I got it for dh when he was going on a walking holiday- it was a karrimor one and the rrp was over £20 so it was a real b argain. Well worth a look!

Was this the Sweaty Betty one?
Found this which is cheaper, and includes bottle. Not as cheap as some mentioned, though.

used2bthin · 17/08/2008 20:31

Oh thanks Jackieno yes that was the one and the amazon one looks good. I may well order it in fact, if postage is free which I think it sometimes is.

Have a search for runners accessories (on Google, not just Amazon) - there are others around too, for the same price or less (though not always with the bottle included).

used2bthin · 17/08/2008 20:38

Thanks Jackieno, I actually have got a bottle that I bought for 2m old DD but she hates it. Just been looking at it and its very similar to the ones you can buy for running.

I think Lidl have them as of tomorrow.

Fimbo · 17/08/2008 20:48

Ignore me - its a bike thing they have.

used2bthin · 17/08/2008 20:49

Oh thanks for the tip of Fimbo we've got a Lidl so I'll pop in before I order the amazon one in case I can get one there.
