View Full Version : Walmart Blue Foam Pad??
I've searched 3 local Walmarts for this pad to sleep on and can't find it. I was told its in the camping section, but apparently my Walmarts don't carry them. Is there any other place I can pick this up cheap? Thanks!
Check out Target and K-Mart stores. I've bought bluefoam pads from them also.
Dick's Sporting Goods and Sports Authority carry them on a regular basis, too. Bear in mind that, for most folks, the hiking season doesn't start until Memorial Day, so many stores don't put out their full selection of camping and hiking gear this early in the year.
What Tinker said. :) You'll probably have to wait for the XYZMarts and big box sporting good stores to stock them.
If you really are jonesing to get one NOW, Campmor has it for $11 plus S&H:

After being a Receiving Manager for 67 of the Sports Authority stores at the Denver Distribution Center I will tell you it's a fact that it is considered a “seasonal item” and it will be hard to find them in a big box store now. I will say that I have two of them that my son and I use and though worn and weathered I have never had to replace them in seven or eight years. However I’m planning on cutting them down to fit our Hennessy Hammocks so I will most likely purchase a new set for tent casmping.

This is a picture of the Walmart one. Mine look more like an egg carton with all the dimples.

The Greatland Inflatiable Sleeping Pad at Target is good but I wouldn't get it for any long treks. Its big and bulky. I would go for the Thermarest foam pads for something light.

I use the egg crate one from walmart also in my hammock. It's great! It's a few inches wider and I think longer also and runs $12 vs the $8 for the blue one. I bought the blue one for my son and it did not have the blue cinch straps shown in the above photo (if that matters to anyone).
If you don't know, walmart.com is like mail order with free shipping. (Like sears used to be years ago)
You have to go to the local store to pick up the item when it comes in
