Today Sainsbury's are selling a "4 man camping package" for £39.00

It includes a "4 man dome tent" (which is also available for £24.99)

http://www.sainsburys.co.uk/shoppingandservices/Clothinghomeware/Homeware/Visit+the+marquee/furniture_and_gardening/Tent_4persons.htm?prevUrl=%2fsearch.htm%3fquery%3dtent%26x%3d0%26y%3d0

plus 4 sleeping bags and roll mats.

Initial inspection was that it was cheap but serviceable and I am tempted
to buy one to use as a store tent and keep the sleeping bags back as
spares in case somebody's gets wet.

My mate bought one of these "bargain packs" from Halfords at the weekend -
four man tent, four sleeping bags, matresses, etc for about £200 I think.
When we put the tent up.......

It not rubbish, but as he's already got sleeping bags, £200 would have
bought a much beter tent.
