I went into Wilkinsons today bought another led ufo light, but their was'nt a great deal of camping stuff in.  I did spot the BBQ bucket in it's own bag, very compact £12 tempted.

New Wilkinsons shop soon opening here. Not been in one before. What sort of camp stuff is worth considering? Not that I really need much.

I bought a camping lantern from wilkinsons when I went on my first trip two years ago, it is still going strong, cost £3.99 and is as good as any of the high-end lanterns millets sell...

I am a big fan of wilkinsons for most things, I do not however like homebargains or B&M, these are definatley stores to steer clear of

I bought a couple of excellent pvc folding buckets last year (as a wash bowl and fire bucket) for a couple of quid, some knife, fork and spoon sets for compact camping, fleecy mattress covers for the airbeds and UFO lights, but missed the end of season SIM sell-off...

The quality has gone up in recent years, but still check things over first.

Oh yes - I also find their pencil cases useful for the emergency repair kit and washing line and peg bits.
