forget about weight or storage ability.
Also, you are fucking retard, without telling where you go and what you plan doing there is no way to recommend you a certain type of tent or alternative solutions.

The prices are good. Go find a poorfag hobby

If it's just for one trip, go rent a tent.

Is there such a thing as a poorfag hobby?

Different anon here... Don't get me wrong, I like hobbies and such activities, but in reality a hobby is patrician in origin.

Folk art/crafting, music, dance, storytelling (yes, there's actually an art to storytelling), folk sports/games (think like axe throwing, tests of skill that would developed around a vocation or simple games like corn hole).

Working people have always found ways to enjoy what little free time they have.

Go on Amazon and get a hammock that doubles as a bivy. It will run you like $30

>>1088421
if you go backpacking with a cheap tent and it rains, don't expect to stay dry.

Spend $100 (really good price) on a Kelty and be happy for years.

Pretty standard weight for a 2-person camping tent, desu. Not for backpacking, obviously.

In my experience, if you want cheap and light you need to go for single-layer tents with very limited features.
A good example is the Coleman Rigel X2. Dunno if it's still manufactured or if you can find it in the US. There are probably more up to date options out there.

Having sex with my GF and other bitches i find at the bar.

It's free - $40 worth of drinks.

poorfag approved. I can attest to that. Been saving up for six months for gear tho. so probably will leave that hobby behind for a bit. ;^)

I have an old 1 man tent from my time in the army. It's pretty damn nice. The wind shield works amazing, the parts are light, the tent part itself is great even without the windshield, and it rolls up into a very nice package. (Plus side, it's the perfect size for a close couple)

Zpacks solplex. Stow ability is great, shove it in your pants pocket if you want

Wrong.
>spend 400 dollars on entry level equipment that won't last a year of moderate usage
>spend dozens on special foods which taste like dried garbage
>spend a shit ton of dollars on gas to get to the fucking park or wherever you're going
>THEN learn that it costs 12 fucking dollars a night to park your shitty car and camp
>the fucking spetsnaz can follow you around and demand you show them your fucking ID, permit, or check your shit for alcohol/tobacco whenever they want
>can't fucking fish or build traps even on private land
Fuck this outdoor survival/bushcraft backpacking fucking shit I should have just stayed in my air conditioned room and pirated video games until my arteries clog up. This hobby is for rich people.

Park your shitty car elsewhere and take taxi near the place and walk the rest? Save 12 moneyz a night.

Get the Texsport $30 tent off amazon. It's a simple trusted design, light and can be packed down. It's easily fixed and can be used without the poles/stakes if you are resourceful and/or in the correct environment. Most of the complaints about this tent are by people who aren't adept at setting up camp/knots tying and rely on more expensive tents instead of learning.

Camping is free as shit if you just hike out somewhere and sleep. Grab a tarp and pitch it up. Cheap cheap cheap. Add a few food items and some water bottles and bam. Experience.

>>1092971
Should've lurked more, you dumb bastard. This could all have been prevented.

Walmart $30 dome tent. You can even pick up the 5'x6' youth tent and sleep diagonally.
