In case you haven't found it yet, there was a similar thread about a year ago. There was some useful stuff listed there. Go to

Targets $1 section (usually near one of the front doors) is selling various camping tools. I bought 2 - 60 ft. poly rope (to tie to trees & hang our wet towels up on). One of the things I always forget to bring!
