Picked up an ex shop display toolbox from Supercheap Auto last week. Slightly dented bottom corner that straightend out when i bolted the castors on the bottom. No tools and a few light scratches but for $50 i wasn't complaining

Still thinking about whether or not this is a bargain so thought I’d ask the My Swag brains trust.

Rays Outdoors sent me a $20 voucher and I noticed that they also have a pretty good discount on their Expedition swags - single for $119 less $20 = $99 and $40 more for the double.

So, are the expedition swags worth it and if so, should I go single or double given I will be using it alone and double is obviously bigger and heavier?

Looks good at this price, looks like it should be able to use for two single axle setups https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Caravan-3500-kgs-independant-suspension-by-component-engineering/142994655089

My wife wanted to go to Spotlight so tagged along and while she looked at yarn I went into Anaconda.  Glad I did.
Got a new Waeco cover for my little CF18  for $5   reduced from $99.




There were also new covers for CF110 waecos also $5 so took a punt that they would fit my old Coolmatic 110. Got 3 at that price ( down from $150)  but will have move the fan position on the fridge to match the cover.  The old Coolmatic must be 25 years old now.



also picked up a Coleman 700 Lumen torch for $15  and a 24 foot caravan cover for $30

Anaconda used to be my go to place for camping equipment. But over the last year it's turned more into a clothing store then a camping store. Only a small corner dedicated to camping gear.

Bit like BCF.

Tentworld is my pick.

I liked kangaroo tent city when we lived in Sydney and before they shut down the Parramatta store.

I haven’t actually walked into a Kelly’s store yet.

Anaconda are ok for the basics.
If you know what you want and not in a rush to get it, you can watch out for the anaconda sales and pay a fair price. If your not getting at least 30% off at anaconda you’re getting ripped off (because at some point in the next couple of months that item will be on sale for at least 30% off).

Apparently BIG4 Holiday Parks Membership (Perks+) $25 (50% off) is a good deal if you like to stay at them.

Same as the unit on 4wdsupacentre site, I've got one, works ok, I've added a grill to the internal base of mine plus some more venting on the door. Paint may burn off when you get her real hot but for that money who cares.
