Public parks have become this summer’s hottest hangout spots amid lingering social distancing restrictions — and as someone who’s currently dealing with the repercussions of sprawling out on hard lawns for several afternoons straight, let me just say this: A good folding camp chair is a must-have.
The catch is that many retailers are having a hard time keeping said chairs on their shelves — Target and Dick’s Sporting Goods, especially. It seems we’re all desperate for some time outside after being cooped up indoors all spring, even if it’s just to sit and chill. (Peep the Google Trends data for “camp chair” and “camping chair” for further proof — searches for both terms reached all-time highs in May.)

After some thorough internet searching, we managed to find a few camp chairs at Amazon, Cabela’s, and even Best Buy that aren’t just in stock, but also on sale. Below, you’ll find them listed in order from highest to lowest discount:
Enjoy the great outdoors without putting yourself at risk of a nasty sunburn by posting up in this Wakeman model — it’s got a built-in canopy that’ll protect you from the sun on hot days. Best Buy has it on sale in green for only $39.99, which is a whole $30 off its suggested retail price of $69.99.
Bring on the shandy: This fully cushioned Coleman chair boasts a mesh cup holder and a four-can cooler pouch. It’s typically listed at $47.99, but the last time we checked, Amazon had it on sale in blue and red for only $29.99 — an $18 savings.
Kijaro’s ultra-stable locking camp chair sports a breathable mesh seat back, two cup holders, and an attached carry strap. Normally $40, you can snag it from Amazon in either “Kawachi purple” or “Maldives blue” for just $29.99 — a savings of just over $10.
Made from heavy-duty, 600-denier polyester, this super comfy oversized chair from Cabela’s comes with a built-in cup holder/organizer pocket. You can pick one up today for only $47.97, which is $12.50 off its $59.99 MSRP.
