tent for camping price image

I searched the internet and couldn't find any useful info, and don't wanna pay for a guide book. I am VERY short on money and would like to camp for just one night somewhere in New Jersey, legally, and for free. Any recommendations?
Answer
I am a camper, and I used to live in NJ. Unfortunately I do not know of any legal free camping locations in the state. State (and county) parks would probably be the cheapest. The website for NJ State Parks lists camping fees at $20 in most parks. You might look on-line for county parks and check those prices. You could also consult camping guidebooks (like Woodall's) at your local library. As you search, keep in mind that camping locations near cities would usually be more expensive than those in more remote areas. Good luck.

What do I need to know about buying a camping tent?
Q. I have been shopping for an approximately 10x10 camping tent for car camping (not backpacking). I have looked online at REI, Campmor, EMS, Sierra Trading... and in the store at Walmart and Dick's Sporting goods. I've compared features so I know what's typically available. I'm trying to find out why there is such a huge variance in prices... what is the value of a $200 tent vs. an $80 one with nearly the same features. (is it the material?) I'm looking for other people's advice and experiences!
Answer
Things like double-layered fabric, sealed seams and ripstop fabric make for a better and more durable tent that will keep you warm & dry. Same goes for aluminum poles and stakes. I think REI gives really good value for the money, especially their campdome series - I have had one for years and it's still in great shape. They also are very easy to set up. If you plan to use it more than one or two times, a quality tent is worth the money. Sure, you could get the Motel 6 of tents, but I think the Holiday Inn Express is worth a few more dollars. I do not recommend the "Four Seasons" of tents (like Mountain Hardware or North Face) unless you've got $$ to burn or plan to use it more than you use your bed.
