The high street seller's Bestway 6ft Fun Odyssey Pool is £10.80 and is in the sale down from £18.
Not only is it said to be made from 'rigid heavy-duty transparent PVC' but it also has a fun ocean-themed design with dolphins and fish.
The capacity of the pool is 946 litres, but it only takes 15 minutes to fill up.
If you are worried about the pool ripping, it also comes with a repair kit as a back up.
It is designed for kids aged two and above and should always be used 'under the direct supervision of an adult.'
The pool is also multi-functional, and when it is not being used with water it can be used as a sandpit.
Thankfully it only weighs 1.8kg so it is easy to pick up and store when it is deflated and dry.
Savvy spenders have been raving about the pool on the Facebook group Extreme Couponing and Bargains UK.
One shopper wrote: 'This pool from Argos is fab £10.80.
'Unfold and fill it up and when you empty it it folds up.'

Many people commented on the post saying they had either snapped it up or were desperate to.
One wrote: 'Bought this today for my little girl brilliant for price.'
Another added: 'Got this today !!! Brilliant for the price.'
A third commented: 'I got one today it's great.'

It's a whopping seven-foot in length - or alternatively a nine-footer can be picked up for £17.50 down from £35.

Aldi launches viral La Vieille Ferme dupe but in a box – and it's much cheaper

Plus, other what other deals you can get your hands on WINE TIME Aldi launches viral La Vieille Ferme dupe but in a box – and it's much cheaper Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) ALDI has launched a boxed wine version of the viral La Vieille Ferme for a fraction of the price. Made with picnics in mind, the 1.5 litre tub of wine has hit shelves just in time for the warm weather. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 4 Le Petit Poulet is a fraction of the price of the original La Vieille Ferme 4 La Vieille Ferme Rose Wine was a viral hit on Tiktok last summer Credit: Tesco Arriving in stores today, Le Petit Poulet Rosé Boxed Wine is a pale and citrusy rosé that's straight from the wine region of Provence. And priced at £12.49 it's over £3 cheaper than the original, La Vieille Ferme Rosé Bag in a box, which scans for £15.50 per litre. While traditionally it's been lower grade wines that have been sold in boxes, expert Sam Caporn says boxes now have a much greater variety of wines on offer. He's urged Brits to give boxed wine a go, calling it a more affordable way to drink as the beverage stays fresh for longer. Read more on Money NO SHOW Piers Morgan reveals he turned down big money reality TV show just last week He said: 'Boxed wines have many advantages. For example, boxed wine can stay fresh for considerably longer than bottled. 'There is usually a price advantage too, as you're not paying for heavy or expensive glass. And lastly, boxed wine tastes no different to bottled!' It's not just rosé that Aldi has got on offer but a collection of red and white boxed wines too. White-wine drinkers will be thrilled to know that the Cambala Sauvignon is scanning for just £13.99. Meanwhile, an intense Shiraz is flying off the shelves for as little as £13.99 for 2.25L. This comes just days after Aldi slashed the price of some of its fanciest wine to just £10 as part of a brilliant bargain sale. Copycat Meghan's new rosé wine is yet ANOTHER attempt to stay relevant The retailer is slashing the price as part of a sale to mark English Wine Week. Saving 44 per cent per bottle shoppers will be treated to Aldi's premium Winemaster's Lot English Sparkling Wine for just £9.99. Without the discount the bottle would set back shoppers a massive £17.96. The deal will be available in stores for the duration of English Wine Week from the 19th-25th of June. Julie Ashfield, Chief Commercial Officer at Aldi UK, said: 'English Wine Week is a great moment to showcase the quality of British winemaking. "With a saving of 44% on our Winemaster's Lot English Sparkling Wine, we're making it easier than ever for shoppers to enjoy exceptional, award-winning English wine at unbeatable prices.' English Wine Week is an annual national event that celebrates the English wine industry. Several retailers, restaurants and vineyards participate in the event, offering up cheap English wines to customers. This year Aldi will be serving up multiple bottles from their collection to mark the event. 4 Aldi has also launched an intensely rich Shiraz
