I've been looking for a weekend tent for a little while and took the plunge on an Icarus 500.  Outdoorgear4U are selling it for a good price at £154.99 http://www.outdoorgear4u.co.uk/category/tents-camping/56-person-tents/vango-icarus-500-2011-model.php

so I price matched it at Go outdoors and got it for £139.49 which I thought was a great price, especially for this years model.

Hope this helps anybody who is looking at getting this tent.

You can do it online, over phone or instore. If you can fund somewhere that sells something cheaper (not auction site like eBay though) they will pricematch and give you an extra 10% off. The terms and conditions are on their website. You have to take into consideration things like delivery charges. I would have got the footprint cheaper too but they were out of stock in Cardiff :(
