WITH the UK baking in sunny weather what better way is there to cool off than in an outdoor paddling pool.
Dozens of retailers have the miniature swimming pools in stock for summer with plenty of cheap options on offer.
From B&M to Very, Wilko to The Range, here are some of the cheapest pools we found this summer.
It’s worth bearing in mind, these are just the cheapest inflatable pools we could find and you might find the same ones, or similar, cheaper in other stores.
Using websites like Price Spy, Price Runner and Trolley to compare prices across thousands of products is the best way to find good deals.
B&M
B&M is selling their kids summer set pool for just £8.
Discount retailer B&M is selling a small summer pool that’s ideal for your little ones to splash around in.
The retailer doesn’t offer a home delivery service so the pool can’t be ordered online.
Shoppers hoping to nab one can pick it up in store though.
The paddling pool is only 1 metre wide so not worth buying if you’re looking for something a bit bigger.
Shoppers will have to buy an air pump separately to pump up the three-ringed pool.

How to bag a bargain
SUN Savers Editor Lana Clements explains how to find a cut-price item and bag a bargain…
Sign up to loyalty schemes of the brands that you regularly shop with.
Big names regularly offer discounts or special lower prices for members, among other perks.
Sales are when you can pick up a real steal.
Retailers usually have periodic promotions that tie into payday at the end of the month or Bank Holiday weekends, so keep a lookout and shop when these deals are on.
Sign up to mailing lists and you’ll also be first to know of special offers. It can be worth following retailers on social media too.
When buying online, always do a search for money off codes or vouchers that you can use vouchercodes.co.uk and myvouchercodes.co.uk are just two sites that round up promotions by retailer.
Scanner apps are useful to have on your phone. Trolley.co.uk app has a scanner that you can use to compare prices on branded items when out shopping.
Bargain hunters can also use B&M’s scanner in the app to find discounts in-store before staff have marked them out.
And always check if you can get cashback before paying which in effect means you’ll get some of your money back or a discount on the item.
