Are you struggling to cope with the heat?
As Sheffield and South Yorkshire finds itself in the grip of yet another heatwave, we’ve got some suggestions to help you cool down a bit.
Temperatures of 35°C or higher have now been recorded in May, June and July of the same year for the first time in the UK weather record, according to the Met Office. Simply put, it is hot once again.
Are you struggling to cope with the heat? Not to worry, we’ve put together a swift round-up of some sizzling (sorry) deals on air conditioning units, BBQs and paddling pools, so you can enjoy the lovely weather in the best way.
Take a look at these cracking summer offers below:
This £59 portable air cooler deal includes a 4L tank, ice pack and oscillation
A portable air cooler with a 4L water tank, oscillation and an ice pack included has landed in a Wowcher deal for £59, offering a lower-cost option for households trying to make bedrooms, home offices and living rooms more comfortable during warm weather.
The Portable Oscillating Air Cooler with 4L Water Tank is listed as reduced from £98.99 to £59, with postage from £8.99. The deal page shows a 40% reduction, while the cooler has a 3.5-star rating from 1,294 reviews and more than 6,700 bought at the time of writing.
Large Ninja FrostVault 47L cool box drops to £129.99 in Amazon limited-time deal
Absolutely nobody likes a warm cola (or any other chosen soft drink), so it’s a good thing that Ninja have bought the chiller you’ll have to fill up. But it goes further than that.
This large Ninja cool box with space for up to 80 cans and ice retention of up to six days has been reduced to £129.99 in a limited-time Amazon deal.
The Ninja FrostVault Hard Cooler 50qt/47L is listed in Slate Grey at £129.99, down from an RRP of £249.99. That gives buyers a 48% saving at the time of writing, with Amazon also showing free returns on the deal.
The big selling point is Ninja’s FrostVault technology, which adds an integrated Dry Zone drawer. The separate drawer is designed to keep food cool, dry and away from melting ice, which could be useful for sandwiches, cheese, snacks, fruit or anything else you do not want floating around with cans and bottles.
Ninja says the FrostVault Dry Zone drawer can store food at fridge-safe temperatures, under 4.5C, for days, which is pretty brill if you ask us.
EUHOMY countertop ice maker drops to £76.49 on Amazon
We’ve all been in that situation, you go to the freezer to get some ice to chill your drink but the ice maker is empty and hasn’t been refilled, cue momentary rage.
Not to worry, this EUHOMY countertop ice maker can produce nine ice cubes in around six minutes and has been reduced by 15% in a limited-time Amazon deal. Cool, right?
Anyone planning summer parties, barbecues or simply wanting cold drinks on demand can currently save on the EUHOMY Countertop Ice Maker, with Amazon reducing the appliance to £76.49 from its previous price of £89.99.
The limited-time deal saves shoppers £13.50, representing a 15% discount. According to Amazon, more than 200 units have been bought in the past month, while the EUHOMY Ice Maker also carries Amazon's Choice status – which says it all really.
This 75 per cent off gazebo deal could save garden parties in the heatwave
No matter how much we all enjoy the sun, it’s always good to enjoy it in a safe way. So, don’t bake, take a break.
This waterproof gazebo with detachable sides has dropped to £29.99 in a voucher deal from Go Groopie, offering a bargain way to add shade and cover to gardens, patios and outdoor party setups.
The three metre gazebo, which comes with detachable sides, is reduced from £119.99 to £29.99, which works out as a 75 per cent saving, and a discount of £90 on the list price.
More than 1,000 have been sold so far, which is no surprise, given the UK is now in the grip of a third heatwave and seems intent on breaking all the records this summer.
Anyway, if you fancy some welcome respite... perhaps this will do you right.
