Cheap Stuff that Works

I wear these at work and they’re great for the price.

The orvis fleece lined pants for colder weather clearance price at Costco $8 and the orvis tech pants as well on clearance great quality for the cost.

I was about to buy the hood by Swazi but after shipping it was gonna be like 120 and on Amazon the cheapest I could find it was 75 is this what everyone has been paying or am I missing something?

You have to wait for their sales and free shipping. Don't remember what I paid but wasn't that bad. I love my Swazi stuff. I prefer the rattler with full length zipper over the hood. Not the cheapest but great gear.

Speaking of good cheap knives...I lost my ~$200 Benchmade mini bugout & saw these knockoffs on Amazon. For $20 I figured I'd take a gamble. I swear they must be made by the same factory. Compared next to a real one I can't tell any difference in the components. This same company has several models of the BM's

DIY ice pop bags make it easy to portion out single servings of electrolytes, protein powders, condiments, what have you.

I made some single serve protein powder mixes with the powder obvs and powdered whole milk and collagen and it was a nice easy drink on the go. Same with dumping a single bag of electrolytes into my nalgene (if you make your own or have a container not single serve packets)

Dang, Good find. I hate that $ goes to China over US but would definitely work in a pinch.

Another option for cheap knives.
I’ve used the LX311 for years. It looks like it’s been replaced by this model.
I generally buy 4-5 at a time so I’ll have one right after I lose one.

I certainly understand but I'd rather $20 of my money go to China than $200 go to the bottom of the river

Costco hotdog and drink for the 1.64 always make me feel better too
