Why We Love This Deal
Sometimes, if you pull out your wallet and buy things individually, a headlamp here, a pocket knife there, you’ll end up both poorer and more organizationally challenged than if you just bought a cool camping gear essentials kit. And that’s why, if you plan to hit the woods this year, you ought to check out this 57-piece survival kit that Walmart has on sale for less than $25.
The Teipuery 57-Piece Survival Kit is now just $21 at Walmart. It’s a lightweight kit that fits in a compact 7.3-by-4.3-by-2 inch waterproof box, and it just might save your life. It includes all the gear you'd need to rough it in an emergency, and really nothing you don't, though we hope you'll never actually have to use it.

What Shoppers Should Know
- Size: All pieces contained within a 7.3-by-4.3-by-2-inch waterproof ABS plastic box.
- Weight: 1.74 pounds
- Total Pieces: 57
- Notable Pieces: Compass, whistle, bandages, pocket knife, scissors, fishing kit
- Sample Use Cases: Finding your way when lost, treating a basic wound, catching and eating a fish, etc.
The really cool thing about this kit is that it is really small and easy to carry with you. It includes pieces that are traditionally somewhat expensive, like a compass or pocket knife. And while the knife is no Gerber, it’s small, works, and is right there when you need it.
Of course, a kit is only as useful as the user allows it to be. Case in point, if you don’t know the first thing about orienteering, the compass is going to be hard to use. But luckily, this kit is actually quite fun and easy to take out and use in a low-stakes mission while you’re camping, and it’s a classic: Catching and eating a fish.
The kit includes rudimentary fishing gear, a scaling knife, a fork, a string saw, and a fire starter for making an “oven” to cook the fish. Head out to the lake or river and test your mettle! You can even pull out the whistle to alert your crew when dinner is ready, though that would probably best be used to alert help.

What Shoppers Are Saying
With a kit this small and inexpensive, it’s easy to worry about organization and quality, but user reports confirm things are well kept from the get-go. “Everything arrived well organized and compact, easy to carry and store, and the tools feel solid and practical rather than cheap.”
As for first aid, another user pointed out that, “This has enough of the basics to cover small nicks and scratches.” It’s not going to be enough to take care of a major wound, of course, but that’s not what this kit is all about.
The Teipuery 57-Piece Survival Kit is just $21 while this deal lasts, and it’s an awesome addition to your gear arsenal.
