I don't know if this is helpful to anyone, but we bought a new Coleman Cedar Creek Tent today at Millets (in the store - not on line) for £125.00. The ticket on the tent bag in the store still says £187.00 but they have a laminated bookfolder with pictures of tents in and the price for £125 is in there. Its the cheapest we have seen for that tent anywhere. I don't know much about it yet, we are going to practice putting it up tomorrow. I just thought I'd let people know as I though it was a really good price.

The first time we put our cedar creek up, in our back garden, was a nightmare (for me), the instructions were really vague and it took us a good couple of hours. Then we found that it had a broken clip, so we had to take it back down and return it the next day.
We found though that the second time we put it up took us three quarters of an hour at the most and that was with me dawdling about, so hopefully with practice it will take less and less. The tent itself is great, nice and light inside and we are really pleased with our choice. The bedrooms seem large enough and the living space is ample enough for us, for a weekend and also for a week or more. We are going camping in the borders on Saturday night (for a practice run) so will be able to tell you more after that.

Have you seen the other thread, which is running at the moment (here)? Tikit reckons he can pitch in ten minutes, which sounds great.
