Looking for decent prices on tents in the Winnipeg area -
* Doesn’t need to be uber-backpacker gear, just sturdy enough to last at least this year
* small-ish; 2-person + backpacks
* domes or D-shaped, for example
* bonus points for downtown or heading out the south-east side of the city

If you haven’t seen any specific prices this week, I’d still appreciate any tips on which stores might have a decent tent on sale.

(I’d dig around on store sites, but I ought to be working right now!) Thanks in advance
Thanks much, everyone! Ended up spotting a little 2-person dome at Canadian Tire (Regent) at the last minute for $30 – if you were still looking, there were a few on the shelf.

I was in Superstore a few days ago. They had two-person tents for around 50.00 and it was a decent name brand too.
Not sure how cheap you are wanting to go but my husband and I are considering going back to get one!
Good luck on your search!
