Always have a quick check on their website for offers, the home page usually has links to a pdf for downloading. I was in there a couple of days ago, pretty decent folk and quite well clued up generally. Huge stock of tents.

Yep agree, we just bought a bigger tent for when we go camping in the car, we got 20% (£35) off a vango icarus 500 so was very pleased with that.

If memory serves me right, it was £5 for delivery, which is ok.

That Outdoor clearance site is very good

So, saving £8 when I can pick it up from the store isn't worth it IMO.
I have looked at that site before and do seem to be one of the cheapest around tbh.
