New Kit For Old!

It was ten quid for a new jacket or sleeping bag at a Cotswold store this Saturday and all in a good cause too... Nice one.

New kit for old? Sounds too good to be true but that's what OUTDOORSmagic shopping partners Cotswold Outdoor is promising this weekend in a re-run of last year's epic promotion to raise funds for the Red Cross.

This year, to mark Red Cross week, the first ten customers to arrive at each of ten of their stores with an old waterproof jacket will be able to exchange it, plus £10, for a brand new Craghoppers Blackthorn jacket (worth £80), alternatively the first ten customers with their old sleeping bag can exchange it for a new Aztec Condor 200 sleeping bag (worth £45) for only £10.

Even if you're too lazy to make the first ten, you'll still be able to get a discount of 30 per-cent on either of the items on offer in return for your old sleeping bag or jacket.

All the old items collected will be donated to the Red Cross to be sold in their shops. Top stuff.
