Hi
This is myself and partners first time skiing, going to Pamps on 8th February, we don't have any equipment, and wondered if any of you had come across any recent bargains either on-line or in the York-Leeds area.
Ive also seen on the discussion board that it is sometimes cheaper to purchase the gear in the resort, does this include goggles and all the accessories etc. I don't want to arrive there with 1 pair of socks and a Thermal vest and hope
We're travelling from Gatwick ...

We're travelling from Gatwick and staying in Pamporovo Hotel, anyone else heading that time
Ive found the site very friendly and informative over the past few weeks that I have been looking, keep up the good work

Thats my problem dont arrive till after 9ish, and not to sure the missus would be too happy going to the shops to buy equipment while I go to the bar , Spose I could ask her, but then wouldn't have any unbroken limbs to ski with
As has already been said, Aldi have some cheap stuff, Makro if you have a card, and also ebay.. I have picked up some good quality second hand stuff from there goggles etc... Or have you thought about hiring for the first time clothes that is, at least you will know that they fit before you go.
Just have a nose around the net for ski shops near you I am sure you will find something
there are three shops in Pamp. opposite the White heart is a chemist, the shops start to the right of the chemist, underneath the hotel. we got boots from the first shop on the left after the chemist and saved about £60 per pair. this one shop sells everything you could need. hats down to skis.
if wed have known about this shop we wouldnt of bought ski clothes in UK.
the shops here are open till atleast 9:00pm (inc. christmas day)
Try skiwear4less.co.uk - they're not bad. If you have a TK Maxx near you, they've got some really good bargains - just bought new ski jacket for £17. Can't go wrong with that - and if I do, I'll just have to get a new one when I get there.
Off to Pamps in 22 days and also again in 390 days!!!
