    Millets had some camping equipment on sale last week - can't be sure if those stoves were included though.

    Which canister do you need? Each size has a specific part number. 907,904, CP250 etc. Some are available in supermarkets and hardware shops. Others will only be found in camping or outdoor specialists, such as Millets and The Great Outdoors.

    don't know, all we know is it's a small old camping gas stove

    I thought the little blue cannisters were the one size

    must get on the case tomorrow to see this stove so

    cheers :)

    Bring the stove into Millets and we'll sort ya with the right gas. 90% sure we're cheapest for it, but if you find it cheaper elsewhere we can match the price.

    absolutely NOT

    go to cheaper shops - even try argus - sometimes argus and lidl do these items. Duffy's is a selective shop - probably a LOT dearer.

    Just remember that gas is not allowed at festivals (in Ireland anyhow). If you're caught with gas, the cannister will be seized. So if cooking with it, make sure you have someone on lookout!

    i bought one for the summer, looked at argos prices but got one for a few euros cheaper in the fire place shop just outside Galway shopping center. Lots of sales on now though so prices have probably changed!
