This bothered me and my teacher. Sentence itself is correct unless we consider serial comma aka oxford comma. In US it is ok but in British English it is discouraged and the serial comma is only permissible for clarity sake. So we both are wondering about We style guide of CSS. Has anyone any info over it?

Good luck everyone who appeared in 2016. Overall papers are quite well-balanced if we overlook few things.
Could you provide me link.
Because, I believe that sentence has irregular parallelism.I.e. each object is in simple form without any gerud;while,that of sleeping is creating non-parallelism.
So my suggested correction is
We took a tent, a cooler, and a bag.
Sentence structure
(Subject+intense verb+ object)
Here all objects must be in same condition not object1=object2=object 3
While in case of sleeping bag,state of equilibrium is disturbed.
P.S.That's my own recommendation,you may have your own.
