And what is that lesson?  Wal-Mart has the best prices on sleeping bags.  After going to the Army-Navy store and some recreation/sports place and Shop-ko (all in my lunch hour, by the way), I learned that was a wasted effort.  I should have just gone to Wal-Mart in the first place.  But on the plus side, I have a new sleeping bag :)   Camping, here I come!!!
