Beach Shade/Tent
I saw one of those small beach shades/tents the other day which looked very handy for my children. It just provides shade, has no "door" to close and it easy to open and close. I've looked in K-Mart, Target, BigW, Kathmandu, BCF, Anaconda, Spotlight, Freedom, Myer, David Jones, All Sports and Woolworths but no luck. Can anyone help?

As I said I went to BCF, Anaconda and I also visited a couple of smaller camping shops whose names I forget.
How much is it in Bunnings as I can't find it on their website?

Try a shop called Homeart. I think they sell them.

Ebay have these. They have UV protection. Lots of others don't so don't actually protect that well.

Re: Beach Shade/Tent
Problem with ebay is the high cost of shipping. Good point about the UV protection. I think I'll check out the Homeart ones first.

Agreed about the postage. Just found this one though and they are based in Brissie. If you have no luck with Homeart, it could be worth contacting them and see if you can collect.
