‘Can’t camp without it’: Mum’s Kmart essential for cooking on the go

“Ohhh man!! I’m getting one!!”

How to camp right in Australia : What you need to know

One of the biggest pitfalls when camping or caravanning is how and where to cook on the road.

Whilst in some cases you may be able to locate some cooking facilities, it can be much easier to bring something of your own with you if you don’t have a kitchen already - bonus points if it enables you to cook like you’re at home.

Well, it seems Kmart has come up with the perfect solution.

Kmart for camping

This isn’t the first time Kmart has been praised for its unique and innovative camping products.

Recently, Kmart shoppers were raving about an ingenious idea for caravanners using the $1.75 Giant Ice Cube Tray from the store.

"These from Kmart are great in the fridge to stop little jars hitting each other,” one person said in a Facebook group.

TikToker and seasoned camper @lifechangingchange also took to the social media platform to share a cheap item she discovered on the shelves of Kmart, which will hopefully help anyone else out there ensure their bedding remains bug-free and dry ahead of the summer camping season.

"For anyone that goes camping in a swag, I highly recommend this from Kmart," she begins her video.

The item the Aussie swears by is Anko's bed bug-resistant fitted mattress encasement, which retails at the bargain store from just $20 (depending on bedding size).

"It has a zip along the bottom and is double-sided and waterproof," she says, admitting she found the must-have item after doing things the hard way.

"On the weekend we went away and some of the mattresses got a little bit wet, soaking through from underneath but this will hopefully stop the mattress and bedding from getting wet."
