Just bought one today m8, £24.99, it's only the single socket one, but i'm not gonna be powering blackpool iluminations , it has a short lead (1metre) so you'd need an extension as well, you can find it on the johns cross camping shops website (click the online store link). they do the 3 socket one, but its £83.00.

Here's your mission. Check the free ads on this site, we found ours on there for a lot less than you would pay in the shops. Check Preloved whuch is always a better bet than flea bay for quality. And just have a really good hunt around the camping stores because there's plenty of bargains around atm
As "Force Ten" mentions the Sunncamp 3 way at £39.99, I got mine from "The Range" last December £36! it also features a "Reverse Polarity" indicator, Argos price was/is a whopping £99.99!. comes with around 20mts of cable, very well made bit of kit, a pukka EHU.
We've got one the same as the Camperlands one linked to, bought from elsewhere a few years ago, I've seen the same thing sold under various brand names in various places.
It's fine, but the socket unit is quite bulky, if you don't need 3 sockets then a single socket one would take up a bit less packing space.
I can't help thinking though that the RCD on these things is not in the best place. It gives protection to the sockets and devices connected to it, but it doesn't give any protection to the cable. I can't help thinking an inline RCD mounted at the end of the cable near the plug would be a better option
