I'd imagine that the Tesco down bag would fit the bill, although I've not tried one ... not allowed to buy owt from Tesco in our house 

May the bridges you burn light your way

Re: Cheapest, smallest, sleeping bag
I picked up one of the down Tesco bags at £25 and its super small I haven't used it in anger though yet but may be camping at the end of the week with the kids so may take it then.

plus there's an extra 20% camping stuff in Tesco at the moment
but the one above with a mozzy net looks good value too

I tried my Tesco bag over the weekend and for £19.60 it was great. None in stock though.
Go Outdoor have this down bag for £25 http://www.gooutdoors.co.uk/lifesystems ... bag-p95359
Light but only 1 season.

That 600g Lifesystems sleeping bag is a bargain for summer use.

Re: Cheapest, smallest, sleeping bag
Yeah could be, if that's the case then the looter only made a couple of quid.....
It'd a nice little bag packs down small. Will report back after SDW

Re: Cheapest, smallest, sleeping bag
Saturday night I used tesco ultra light down bag, what a great little bag. I was roasting.. Im not sure it would be great much below zero but great for the next couple of months.

Re: Cheapest, smallest, sleeping bag
I also got my Tesco bag out this Saturday (It's first outdoor airing since last October's OMM if I remember rightly) and I was roasting! In fact, I was sweating for the first half of the night and I hadn't even fluffed it up when I extracted it from the drybag.
It's still a more than adequate bit of kit as far as I'm concerned :)
Here it is, peeking out of my Rab bivibag.....
