TIP: The online Bushwalk Inventory System can help bushwalkers with a variety of bushwalk planning tasks, including: Manage which items they take bushwalking so that they do not forget anything they might need, plan meals for their walks, and automatically compile food/fuel shopping lists (lists of consumables) required to make and cook the meals for each walk. It is particularly useful for planning for groups who share food or other items, but is also useful for individual walkers.

As per the thread title. I'm hoping to get my hands on a Moment DW and hoping someone may know if there may be a sale in the near future worth holding out for.
Thanks

Never heard of a Tarptent sale before. Not sure, but I don't think they ever go on sale

It's worth considering putting a Wanted to Buy post in Market Square. I've had good experiences buying second hand good quality gear from here.

Au contraire I think they have rolling/random sale prices. Look at/check the site or sign up for notices.

They do occasionally reduce the price on specific items, but the timing of that is anyones' guess.

Don't forget that their "blemished" discounts are like a permanent sale.

Because of the direct sale price structure (there is no mark up built in for retailers...) the only time TT has reduced the price of certain products has been to clear inventory Typically at the end of the season (our late spring) or simply because a new batch of the same or similar product has arrived in Nevada City.
Blamish stock (in particular with DCF because of faults in the fabric from new, when delivered ...) is advertised , when available, under Shop/ Sale and Blems. (BTW that "sale" part has always been there because it was part of the design in the new software)
