Cheap Camping: How to Save Money on Camping Gear

August16

Going camping in the woods, desert or even on the beach is a favorite way to spend time together for many families. But it isn’t necessarily cheap. There are quite a few things you will need.

Tents, sleeping bags and propane stoves are a few of the things most people like to have with them, but don’t forget about other cooking gadgets, backpacking gear and storage for all the stuff you need to take and carry to the campsite.

Here are a few tips to save money on all that stuff:

Specialty Retailers – As is true for many specialty items (such as electronics), it can be very useful to find a retailer that specializes in carrying only that item. Because they usually have room on their sales floor for more items and more of each item, they are not forced to mark up their products as high as other retailers that may have very little stock. Remember what you learned in school about supply and demand? Same principle. In addition, by shopping at a specialty camping or outdoors retailer, you are assuring that you have the largest selection to choose from. This can often save you money alone by giving you the opportunity to purchase a high-quality product that will not fall apart after one camping season.

Surplus Stores – Many people are not aware of surplus stores, and many more are confused by what they actually offer. Surplus stores sell used items, or items that have never been used but were previously owned. They mostly carry outdoor equipment, military items and industrial specific items. For this reason, you can often find a lot of camping, hunting, or outdoor gear and equipment. In addition, you can get great discounts because of the nature of the store and how the products were obtained by the retailer.

Classifieds – One of the best ways to find great deals on camping equipment is to search your local classifieds. Many people decide to start camping, purchase all of the necessary equipment, and then shortly thereafter decide camping really isn’t for them after all. They then put their very slightly used equipment up for sale in hopes to get something back from their purchase. The deals found in classifieds may be so good that you’d even spend a little gas money to purchase and pick up something out of your immediate local area.  

If you’ve been tagging along with others when camping throughout the years, and are finally ready to purchase equipment of your own, don’t panic over the possible cost. Do a little research and use the tips above to help you on your search for affordable new or used camping equipment that will allow you and your family to have many years of camping trips to come.

You’ll also want to check Overstock.com and Target.com for sales on camping supplies. <a rel=”nofollow” onclick=”javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview(’/outgoing/article_exit_link’);” href=”http://www.momscape.com/coupon-codes/overstock.htm”>Overstock coupons are here </a> and <a rel=”nofollow” onclick=”javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview(’/outgoing/article_exit_link’);” href=”http://www.momscape.com/coupon-codes/target.htm”>Target coupons are here</a>.

Best Outdoor Adventure Hints: Getting the Most Out Of Your Hiking and Camping Gear

July15

Enjoying quality time with nature is a priceless gift for the outdoor enthusiast. One way to make sure you enjoy a memorable outdoor vacation is to get the best possible value from the hiking and camping gear you acquire and use. Here are some ways to get the most out of your hiking and camping gear – and your outdoor wilderness experience.

- Purchase the best survival and adventure gear you can possibly afford. If you are willing to spend months carefully planning your next vacation adventure, spending hours getting into great hiking shape, take three weeks off from work for you camping experience, purchase an airline ticket, and so forth – then why are you using the least expensive backpack and hiking boots you can find? A good pair of hiking boots and socks will make all the difference in the world. This applies to all of your camping gear. Whether it’s your GPS unit, rafting gear, sleeping bag, rain gear or dual-fuel portable stove, set your budget to carry the best outdoor equipment you can afford – in order to get the most value for your money.

- Get comfortable using all of your safety and survival equipment and practice using it the correct way. It is not the time to start learning how to navigate with a compass and map after you are already lost. It’s not the time to learn how to start a fire with a 6 year old flare you’ve been carrying forever in your pack. It’s not time to learn about safe rafting and best survival practices after you’re in danger. Put aside some time to learn about all the features of your camping gear before you head out to your favorite campground. You might be surprised to learn how incredible your GPS really is, once you understand how to use the backtrack feature. You will also be mighty thankful when you learn the proper weight distribution for your backpack. Take time to learn about your camping gear – practice around your home before you venture into the great outdoors.

- Your camping gear isn’t just for outdoor adventure – keep your gear with you and use it as much as possible. It has unlimited uses in your daily life. Never go on a road trip without your outdoor pack. In all likelihood, you’ll find an opportunity to use your camping – hiking – survival equipment close to home. It never fails – if you don’t have your camping gear with you, you will need it.

- Take pride and take care of your outdoor gear. Hopefully you’ve learned this from your parents and not necessarily from experience. Take good care of your camping gear, and the camping gear will take good care of you! If you’re careless with your gear, it will let you down when you need it the most. That’s one adventure you can do without. Carefully inspect each piece of your outdoor equipment – hiking, rafting, camping, safety and survival gear before you embark on your wilderness adventure. Upon your return, clean and properly store all of your camping gear. Make a habit of periodically checking your gear’s safety straps, fuel, waterproofing, batteries and overall condition. Taking good care of your outdoor equipment is an important part of enjoying your hiking, rafting and/or camping trip.

- When you’re done with your camping gear, donate it – and some of your time – to a local scout troop. Your local youth scouting groups are always on the lookout for a helping hand from outdoor enthusiasts. You will feel great satisfaction knowing that your trusty old gear will help benefit others!

Optimize your time in the back country wilderness. The easiest way to ensure maximum outdoor enjoyment is to get the best possible value from your gear. Let these hints guide you in getting the most out of your outdoor recreational equipment – and your outdoor wilderness experience.

In conclusion, selecting an online recreational equipment store can be fun, but it’s important to do your research prior to selecting where you will ultimately make your purchase.
