But can't be really effective on concrete, adding counter-weights (like the rocks arround or a water tank..)could be helpful, if the wind is not too strong. Thanks for sharing this money-saver tips =) Good Idea!

It would work well with th manfrotto stands that can have the legs flat on the floor. Another suggestion for when tentpegs won't do is to use those excercise weights that you can strap to your ankles and wrists. What a brilliant idea.

Tent pegs are cheaper than a lot of things, great idea though. You could even use zip ties to fashion loops for the peg to go through. That’s funny.
