SUMMER is nearly upon us and shoppers are already stocking up on an essential buy that could be perfect for cooling off.
Sun worshippers have been sharing how they are buying bargain “tanning pools” to lie in and get a golden glow.
TikTok user @jessicaaknowsbest showed her enviable set up, which had an inflatable with some shallow water and a hands-free Kindle device for reading.
She also added some snacks and a drink so she had everything she would need without needing to move.
On her video, which has racked up over 115,000 views, she said: “I’ll be here all summer.
“Till further notice.”
Many people were very jealous of her summer set-up and were quick to comment on the video.
One said: “This is perfection.”
Another tagged their friend, and wrote: “This is what we need since we both don’t have a pool.”
A third asked: “Where might one acquire the pool!!!??”
While Jessica is based in the US, the UK has a number of versions of the tanning pool on Amazon.
The retailer is selling a £17.99 Splosh lounger which comes with a ribbed air cushion base and jumbo pillow.
Measuring 73cm long and 120cm wide, it is said to be perfect for “staying cool” in the garden as a “splash pool.”
Book worms can also get comfy as the pillow provides “additional neck and back support.”
It is said to be made from a strong, “UV resistant PVC”, to help it stay inflated for longer.

One person who gave it a five-star rating said: “Love this! Was so easy to blow up, so nice to cool down in on a hot day, very comfy.”
Another added: “Works great to keep me cool while getting sun.”
The bed is available on Amazon Prime, so it can be delivered within just one day if you wish.
There is also a 30-day window for returns if you change your mind.
Keep bugs out of your pool this summer
One of the easiest ways to keep bugs out of your pool is to cover it with a dark sheet (like bin bags) when it’s not in use.
This can also help keep the water warm for kids as well.
Bug traps around the pool can also be useful.
To naturally stop bugs from coming around you can plant such as lavender, basil or mint as they hate the smell.
