I may be a reporter for the New York Post with an office flanking the Rockefeller Center area of Midtown, but I’m also a born-and-grown Jersey girl who spends a lot of time in my family’s outdoor pool.
Ever since my family first did construction on our in-ground pool in 2007, I have been well-versed in what it takes to open a pool, close a pool and enjoy it while it’s open from May to September. That said, I’ve taken *plenty* of trips to Leslie’s Pool Supplies store, and I know a thing or two about shocking a pool, sampling and stabilizing the pH and even removing those unwanted algae spots.
So, while the Post Wanted team is working around-the-clock this Amazon Prime Day, I’m here to bring you a niche list of deals you shouldn’t miss — the deals you can save big bucks on if you’re a pool owner (because everything adds up).
You can only score these deals for today only, as it’s the second (and last) day of Amazon’s Prime Day shopping event.

From finding the best deals on above-ground pools to amazing savings on covers and pool floats, take a look at the list I curated below and recommend as my family’s “pool girl.” And yes, there’s also an assortment of chemicals and pool vacuums to save big on this Prime Day, as these items are some of the most expensive to buy at retail price.
If you’re seeking a newly minted pool for your backyard oasis, the best pool deal is the Intex Rectangular Above-Ground Swimming Pool. For nearly 25% off, it’s not too late to enjoy for the rest of the summer and beyond.
More than 600 shoppers have purchased this particular pool this month alone and love it for its all-in-one value and quick installation time.

For standard size above-ground pools, the Intex Solar Pool Cover is a great investment to make that’s now discounted for Prime Day. Another best-seller, this quality cover helps prevent debris buildup and also reduces your chemical consumption.
Take it from me — if you don’t grab a quality cover from the onset, you’ll only have headaches later on.
![HTH Pool Care Shock Advanced](https://nypost.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/07/HTH-Pool-Care-Shock-Advanced.png?w=1024)
When you initially open your pool, you’ll likely be advised to shock it. The chemical is always good to have on hand as you’ll likely need more should you be away from your pool for a week or so on vacation, or if you happen to have a bird or other animal catch themselves into the water.
Any discount on pool chemicals is helpful, and the HTH Pool Care Shock Advanced is what you should buy.

Pool floats are a matter of personal preference, but I love the tanning ones. There’s nothing better than lying down and soaking up the sun’s rays (with sunscreen, of course). So, the Jasonwell Inflatable Tanning Pool Lounger Float is my *prime* pick while it’s on sale.
