WALMART has dropped the price on a summer essential this month, making it more budget-friendly than some competitors.
The must-have item is ideal for combating the hot weather and cooling off while having fun in the sun.

Bluescape’s Fast Set Round Inflatable Soft Sided Above Ground Pool Set is selling fast[/caption]
For just $68, consumers can get the Bluescape Fast Set Round Inflatable Soft Sided Above Ground Pool Set on the retail giant’s website.
It’s a full $20 off an original listing of $88, meaning savings of about 22% for parents looking to set up a pool in the backyard for the kids.
Sizing for the pool itself is 10 feet in length by 30 inches in height, and it can hold about 1,004 gallons of water.
Also included is a 330-gallon filter pump that will help keep clean water flowing for hours of swim time.
The pool is constructed with a DuraPlus enhanced 3-layer liner, making it built strong to prevent punctures and last for years.
Not to mention, setup is a breeze.
All customers have to do is find a level surface, inflate the top ring of the material with air, and then as it’s filled with water, it will rise up.
A hose can be attached to the built-in control valve for filling and draining.
HIGH PRAISE
Those shoppers who have already bought the Bluescape Fast Set Round Inflatable Soft Sided Above Ground Pool Set at Walmart have raved about it in reviews.
“It’s a good size and perfect for the kiddos to keep cool in!” a satisfied customer exclaimed.
“GET IT! Do it on a LEVEL surface and it’s the best pool ever,” another added.
It has an overall 4.1 out of five-star rating on Walmart’s site.
At least 1,000 of them are selling daily, so those interested must act fast before it sells out.
Walmart’s pool set is also about $12 cheaper than a nearly identical offer at Target for the Intex Easy Set Inflatable Swimming Pool.

TARGET’S OFFER
It costs $79.99, marked down from $105.99 on Target’s website.
The Intex has the exact same measurements as the Bluescape, also built with a puncture-resistant material.
Patches are also included for any potential damage.
Additionally, it can hold about 1,018 gallons of water and can be set up through the inflatable top ring in about 10 minutes.
The downside to the Target option as opposed to Walmart’s, aside from the price, is also that the filter/pool pump is sold separately.
Customers still gave it their seal of approval.
“Was perfect for my kids and even the older ones had fun!” a customer wrote.
“Easy to setup and enjoy right away,” another said.
Ultimately, the decision between the too will come down to shoppers’ budgets and personal preferences.
Aldi is also selling a “luxe” outdoor pool this summer for just $29.99.
Amazon also dropped a deal earlier this year on the “perfect” inflatable pool, down to $59.99 from $261.
