PARENTS are racing to Argos to get their hands on a seriously cheap paddling pool as temperatures soar.
The hot weather means more of us are spending more time in our gardens, but it can be tricky for kids to cool off in the hot weather.
Luckily, one mum spotted the perfect bargain buy from Argos, and it’s just been reduced in price.
She took to the popular money-saving Facebook group Extreme Couponing and Bargains UK to let others know about the great deal.
The Bestway 6ft Fun Odyssey Pool was originally priced at £18 but is now been slashed to just £12 – a bargain too good to miss.
Alongside a snap of the pool in her garden the mum said: “6ft paddling pool with plastic sides no blowing up, rolls out. Great for little ones!”
The paddling pool doesn’t need to be blown up and only takes 15 minutes to fill, according to the product description online.
Even better than that is the “heavy-duty PVC sidewall” which means the pool can withstand your little ones playing in it all day long.
It also has a fun design featuring different sea creatures, making it look way more expensive than it really is – what’s not to love?
Other parents couldn’t get over how good the deal was and thanked the mum for sharing the mega bargain.
One commented on the post: “I got this pool last year and it’s fab, just filled past few days.”
“Perfect for your babies, it won’t pop and it’s cheap,” someone else wrote, tagging a friend to let them know about the deal.
Meanwhile, another said: “We’ve had one for 4+ years now and still going strong. Well used and abused too!”
“I’ve just got my son this pool today, haven’t had it out yet as we’ve had a day out instead but really good price and so happy with it, can’t wait to get it up,” someone else wrote.
“We’ve bought this and it’s amazing, our son loves it. Fed up of pools deflating and breaking,” another mum chimed in.
Lidl shoppers have also found a great deal on summer essentials with a paddling pool and pop-up beach tent from the middle aisle.
“Great if you’re on a budget! Middle of Lidl strikes again with the kids pool at £5 and the pop up beach tent at £15,” one money-saving fan wrote, alongside a snap of her tot enjoying the pool on Facebook.
The Play Tive Infant Paddling Pool is suitable for kids one and a half years and up.
The pool even has a fun design of seahorses and other sea creatures on the bottom any tot would love.
Not only that, but the Rocktrail Pop-up Kids Beach Shelter is great for in the garden or on the beach.
The tent is designed to look like a shark, with the opening being the shark’s mouth with teeth.
SUNNIER days and warmer weather will leave many of us wanting to kit out gardens and outdoor areas.
Sun Savers Editor Lana Clements explains how to get a great deal on summer essentials…
It pays to know how to bag big savings on the likes of hot tubs paddling pools, egg chairs and outside bars.
Many retailers have flash sales across entire ranges – often this ties into payday at the end of the month or Bank Holiday weekends.
Sign up to the mailing lists of your favourite brands and you’ll be first to know of special offers. It can be worth following retailers on social media too.
Keep a close eye on the specialbuys at Aldi and middle of Lidl drops which drop a couple of times a week and usually mean great value seasonal items such as beach gear and paddling pools.
If you are not in a hurry to buy an item, try adding it to the shopping cart and leaving it for a couple of days.
Sometimes big brands will try to tempt you into the sale by offering you a discount.
Always check if you can get cashback before paying. It’s especially worth using sites such as Topcashback, Quidco and app Jamdoughnut when buying bigger ticket items such as garden furniture as you’ll get a nice kickback.
