Found a shop
Hi
I just come back from town, found a new shop called Discount UK. Just found out its the start of a new chain of shops that will be opened up around the country. It had all usual thing but it had quite a few things that maybe of interest to preppers. Most of which i got to try and let you know.
First purchase was a "fishing catapult" £0.99p. It has a metal Y frame the metal is a little thinner than a bennett, the handle is made of plastic but could be replaced with a wooden handle, the elastic seems ok. Had a little play power seems ok. If your looking at stocking up on catapults worth a look.
Second purchase 20m x 4mm paracord £0.99p this should be fine.
Third purchase 5 in 1 emergency accessory (whistle, mirror, compass, small flint firestarter, waterproof matches container) £0.99p. This item can be worn around the neck so you can keep it with at all times. Whistle works well, mirror a little small, compass is quite good compared with my silva that i used to check magnetic north. Flint is very small but does work. Waterproof container is waterproof tested it in the sink. The plastic maybe brittle in the cold.
Forth purchase an emergency whistle (whistle, led light, mirror, magnifier, compass & thermometer) £0.89p. Played with this whistle good, mag quite good, the rest is poor.
Fifth purchase a small fold away rucksack £0.99p i should think about 25 litre's. Fit into its own 4x3 built in pouch.
Sixth purchase emergency shelter £1.25p. Not opened it yet but looks quite good. Makes a small tent from silver foil.
