Five ultra-cheap outdoor gadgets reviewed
It’s that time again – feeling broke but needing a gadget fix, I headed over to dealextreme.com for some ultra cheap toys.

This time my attention was on outdoors and “survival” equipment, and I managed to get five different items delivered to my door for around £7.50.

Price paid $7.18 (around £4) including delivery

Joby GorillaPod flexible tripod 
Price paid £12.57 including delivery from CameraKing via Amazon
You’ve climbed the mountain, or found the one quiet spot on the beach, and you want a group photo - unfortunately, there’s nowhere secure to balance the camera, so you end up missing from the picture. This is the sort of situation the Joby GorillaPod is meant for – it’s a tripod, but with a difference, since its flexible legs can be wrapped around branches, or jammed into crevices, to allow you to take a picture literally anywhere.
