I picked up some of these a couple of years ago, they are good value.

Thanks for the heads up, I was looking for a few of these so couldn't pass up an offer like that. Just bought 2 x 25 litre and 2 x 70 litre all at £3 each!

I noticed they're also selling the Karrimor branded firesteels for £2. I bought these for my kids last year and they seem to do the job nicely. Probably a good buy for any instructors, scout leaders or just parents that want to get their kids away from the playstation/wii/xbox for a while...

Many thanks

NS

I would never trust any drybag 100% if it's going to actually be submerged, even if it's an expensive one.

I've bought some of these, though, because they'll do well inside my various other barrels and drybags. A drybag in a drybag is properly waterproof. These look like they're quite thin, so I'll be hedging my bets by hiding them inside my nice Lomo ones.

Thanks for the link, theres quite a few items in that sale that will set me on course to start my outdoor fun (£100 spent later ha ha)

I put kit inside drybags like these before going in the bigger drybags. The price is crazy cheap !

Now and again they do the thinner ones and the tough PVC ones in TKMax. Also other camping gear.

Dam you! Just gave them more money :why:

I'm sure they made a mistake,as the sports direct site has the 70l bag on sale as 11.49 or summat, not £3. Anyway a few bought.

Karrimor and Sports Direct are the same company!?

I saw these in the store today, bit more expensive and price varied with size.

Thanks for the heads up! I ordered two, plus a beanie. Then wifey got in on the act, now we're a hundred quid poorer!
