    $10 5x7 tarp at WW

    Anyone bought one of these yet? I just spotted them in the Outdoor Products display in the Sporting goods section?
    It is pretty compact and light.
    Thinking of picking one up for my 6 year old to use as an Asym tarp.

    For $10 it looks like something to have on hand. I don't think I would rely on it if there was severe or wet weather in the forecast, but I'd guess it could handle a passing shower. I'll definitely be on the lookout for one.

    Looks like it comes in several sizes:

    Interesting, have not noticed it yet at my local WW. I did pick up one of the new $4.88 pack covers they started carrying, and it is not too bad.

    I just picked up the tarp today and I was looking at but didn't get the pack cover. I need to look at the reciept but I thought the tarp was around $5.00. It looks like it would be nice to have in an emergency kit. I also got the small day pack that is compressed in a pouch that is about the same size as that tarp.

    At least, that's what I believe.
    Dutch: Hammock is probably more weight but who wants to lay on the ground? I pee on the ground.

    As to the pack cover, I eyed that as a gear hammock
