Hi

I want to get some sort of collapsible crate to take on our two week trip. After our weekend away a couple of weeks ago the porch area of our tent got messy really quickly and I had no where to store anything. I have no space left in the car so I couldn't take any rigid boxes. Does anyone know where I could get something like this? I did see some in poundland a while back but they no longer have them. Even ebay is letting me down!

Thanks

Hx

Poundstretcher, Instore, Asda

I'm sure Tesco must do them to, but I've definitely seen them in the shops I said.

I got mine from B & M but they haven`t had any in this year. I could do with another couple, so I may wander into Wilkinson`s tomorrow on my lunch hour. I find one very handy for storing shoes, trainers etc in the porch area of our XXL.

A few years ago I bought hanging awning tidies from towsure, but then I started taking the collapsible crates and they are definitely better!  I wouldnt go without them!  I have seen them in the towsure catalogue but probably cheaper elsewhere.

Another great tip we had from fellow UK Campsite Members Milkybar when we met at Fforest Fields was a pop up toy tidy/laundry bin.  It's like a pop up play tunnel but with a bottom and a top.  We got a canvas one for £4 in poundstretcher.  It'll be great for throwing all the dirty washing in instead of the usual line up of carrier bags we end up with!

Will have to pop in there before we set off for Moffat tomorrow. I forgot to go to Wilkinsons in my lunch hour for some and could really do with another as OH broke mine!
