Cool, cheap finds at the surplus store

A recent visit to the local army surplus store yielded two great, cheap finds:

Ecco Socks



Listed at $12 online, available for $4 at the surplus store. Always nice to have an extra pair of wool socks for sleeping.

Stansport Aluminum Canteen Cup


Cost: probably around $5 (didn't have a price tag, but that's the going rate). I really like these because of their shape, they pack down more conservatively than round mugs/pots, they're superlight, and the tops are easier to cover up from the wind. Probably not the greatest for flame usage though.
