We Went Camping with a $140 Kit from Walmart | Outside

Looking for budget camping gear? Here’s a review of a DIY camping kit you can get at Walmart for only $140 for all your outdoor needs.

When your budget is low, it may be hard to select gear that will suit your needs. Outside editor Emily Reed went to Walmart and bought a tent, sleep system, and cooking kit to spend a night under the stars. All for only $140! Although the quality isn’t the best, this gear kit will get you outdoors to enjoy the experience with a small dent in the bank.

    Είσαι τόσο άσχετη που απορώ! Θα κάψεις κόσμο με τις συμβουλές σου.

    Hear that? That mattress is strong enough for a threesome. Good to know!

  3. Mike Cagle on September 5, 2021 at 11:09 pm

    You obviously are not into serious camping. That stuff from Walmart might last me a half day before I threw it away!

  4. stricklandsports on September 5, 2021 at 11:10 pm

    I believe I saw where you purchased a butane stove yet purchased propane fuel. Was the stove multi-fuel or did it come with a butane cartridge?

  5. J Ko on September 5, 2021 at 11:19 pm

    Everything will be $175 ($140 x 25% tariff) next few weeks. #MAGA #TRUMP2020

    Lol you didnt get any rain because no tents you buy from walmart will protect you in the rain

    I am sorry you were cold. I recommend theoutdoorreview
    for good reviews on camp gear. Ozark Mountain fails 90% of the time.

    Love El Rito and Northern New Mexico camping. Hope you stopped at Farolito for some green chile!

    YEEEEEEYYYYYYYYYY…PROMOTING A BIG ENSLAVEMENT COMPANY THAT STEALS FROM EMPLOYEES CALLED Walmart!!!

  12. lopezfam on September 5, 2021 at 11:32 pm

    God bless anyone reading this! Hope you have an awesome day!  Seek him while you can! Jesus is the way  and the only way and he is returning soon! Whenever you think you aren’t loved… Remember the ultimate sacrifice was for love! SUICIDE IS NEVER THE ANSWER!

    For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
    John 3:16 KJV

    The wages of sin is death (hell) but Jesus payed our wages on the cross, for our salvation! We must turn to God and away from our sinful ways, Confess Jesus is Lord and believe with our hearts that he was risen from the dead by God, and we must be baptized in the name of the Father, the Son and The Holy Spirit and live by His word and Commandments! Trust that God will help with the rest!

    Seek God today before it’s too late! Today could be your last day on earth!
    Have a blessed day!

    Last Line of Defense this week’s ago. Come on.

  14. lopezfam on September 5, 2021 at 11:32 pm

    Dios bendiga a Todos los que estan leyendo esto! Deseo que tengan un hermoso dia! Buscad a Dios mientras pueda ser hallado! Jesus es el camino y el unico camino y regresa pronto! Recuerda cuando te sientas que no eres amado… el mayor sacrificio se hizo por amor! EL SUICIDIO NUNCA ES LA RESPUESTA!

    Porque de tal manera amó Dios al mundo, que ha dado a su Hijo unigénito, para que todo aquel que en él cree, no se pierda, mas tenga vida eterna.
    S. Juan 3:16 RVR1960

    La paga del pecado es muerte (infierno) pero Cristo pagó nuestra deuda en la cruz para nuestra salvacion! Debemos volvernos a Dios y apartarnos de nuestros caminos pecaminosos, confesar que Jesús es el Señor y creer con nuestro corazón que fue resucitado de entre los muertos por Dios, y  debemos de ser bautizados en el nombre del Padre, del Hijo y del Espíritu Santo y vivir por Su palabra y mandamientos! Confia que Dios ayudara con el resto!

    Busca a Dios, antes de que sea muy tarde! Hoy podria ser tu ultimo dia en la tierra!

    Que tengas un hermoso dia!

    Please do not use self-checkout.

  16. Whoops E Daise on September 5, 2021 at 11:38 pm

    LOL at the comments. Emily is trying to get a point across to anyone willing. I would be careful with using the self checkouts as Walmart in Kentucky and Arkansas have found skimmers attached to the ones in those aisles.

  17. Nowakezone Forever on September 5, 2021 at 11:39 pm

    Excellent video Emily…! Very informative. Nice easy casual camping – not backpacking or bushcrafting or surviving the apocalypse – doesn’t need to be expensive. The items you chose will serve the average fair-weather camper very well and let them upgrade over time if they want to. Great job, Emily! Very well done.

  18. Sean Davis on September 5, 2021 at 11:41 pm

    Lol at everyone angry because of Walmart

  19. Ramona Boston on September 5, 2021 at 11:43 pm

    After reading the comments perhaps a follow-up with other places to find inexpensive gear?

  20. Joe K on September 5, 2021 at 11:46 pm

    I wish I could go camping with you girl

  21. ace of maine on September 5, 2021 at 11:48 pm

    The only downside is a lot of that stuff going to be maybe one to two uses before it starts breaking down I’ve tried that and trust me it’s worth it to spend a little bit of extra money and get quality products that you can use year after year

  22. DIYTFY on September 5, 2021 at 11:48 pm

    Wrong fuel for that stove.

  23. I Might B on September 5, 2021 at 11:56 pm

    Water and food???? Hello?

  24. GamerNxUSN on September 5, 2021 at 11:56 pm

    Great video, thanks for it. Contrary to the collectivist statists commenting on here, I am glad we have market choices that lead to lower cost products and above average pay for a retail market. Not to mention the employment that happens along the chain.

  25. J Ko on September 5, 2021 at 11:57 pm

    My tarp poles alone are more than $140…

  26. Roger Ricalde on September 6, 2021 at 12:00 am

    You didn’t need that giant air mattress too heavy and bulky to carry on a camping trip. I have one smaller and light weight to carry with and doesn’t take up a lot of room but for food and other item’s.

  27. Brian Grittner on September 6, 2021 at 12:01 am

    A four person tent for a solo camper ? Sounds about right, actually. Was that the right fuel for the stove ? It appeared not.
