Win a $200 and $100 GC, and three $50 GC from #BackyardOcean 8/6

With #SizzlingSummer temperatures in the high 90s, a cool dip in the pool is perfect for Summer Escapes. Our grandkids love to play in the pool, day and night.

Backyard Ocean, an online retailer of above ground swimming pools and other pool products provided us with a 10' x 30"Float to Fill™ Round Ring Pool Set to review. 

My husband was very impressed as he unpacked the box. Aside from the pool itself, this particular package, also comes with a pump, filter, ladder, beach balls, pool cover, maintenance kit, and instructions.

Everything is made really well. Especially the ladder.

It's very sturdy compared to ones we've had in the past. It was clear every effort was made to ensure this ladder was safe.

The pool requires very little assembly - simply lay out the pool on a level surface and fill it with water.

 The ring will rise as you fill the pool, and the water pulls up the walls with it.

After the pool fills up, you just have to wait for the water to heat up a little if needed. Then, it's play time.

If you would like to win a $200, $100 or $50 gift certificate, you're in luck. You can win with the Pinterest contest, “My Sizzling Summer with Backyard Ocean”, which will end Aug. 6.
