Complete set of Farberware pans for $2 at a garage sale. One half goes camping and the other half went to my daughter.  I have not used the expensive set of camping cookware since then.

Yesterday I got two GI Joe s for $7.88 US each, in Canada IF you can find them, they are around $30 CDN each.  If with the exchange rate, that was a great deal.  I should have picked up a whole wack of the them!
 
 BTW, for my Canadian friends, I ve always heard about Target and finally got to shop in one, that s where I got Joe and it is basically Zellers.   Target and Zellers carry the same brands the stores are set up pretty much the same.
 
 Oh yeah, the coleman 2 mantle, propane lantern with the automatic igniter was only $19.99 US.  We got ours last year for I believe $58 CDN
 
 C est les vie!

our popup![]
 
 DH had promised me we d buy one if I could get the one we wanted at his chosen low price. He didn t think it could be done, and I had my doubts as well. One dealer snickered (really) when I told how much DH was willing to spend.  Another said he d try, but only managed to get within $500 of the mark.  The third dealer worked and reworked the numbers until he matched it.  We got exactly what we wanted at DH s price.  I could have kissed that man![]
 
 I quickly called DH and said " Honey, we are the proud owners of a new popup"   Silence was all I heard.  Now, however, DH also agrees it was the best bargain ever for what it gives us - more family time, a getaway, and many new places and adventures whenever we can get away.

I am a bargain shopaholic so I have way too many to name. Two of my favorites though are:
 
 Polaroid digital camera, list at $175, I got it for 20 bucks
 
 Coleman rechargeable air pump, list at 29.98, got it for 5 bucks
 
 both are used for camping []
