From Jersey and reading the NY Post? Snag this bridge and tunnel bargain to close your pool

If you’re from Jersey and reading the New York Post, I know you have a backyard, an above-ground pool and a long list of chores you’d rather avoid.I’m from New Jersey, and I’m calling this TIXANF Extra Thick Pool Cover a bridge-and-tunnel bargain for anyone with a suburban backyard and an above-ground pool.I’ve personally helped close pools with my dad and my brother, so I know the drill.Somebody is dragging hoses around, somebody is fishing leaves out of the water, somebody is looking for the cover and everybody is wondering why we didn’t get everything ready sooner.That’s why I’d grab this deal before Labor Day.The TIXANF Extra-Thick Above-Ground Pool Cover is made for exactly what happens when summer ends: You need to protect your pool from leaves, debris and the miserable Northeast winter.

If your entire outdoor space is a balcony with two folding chairs and a basil plant hanging on for dear life, you do not need this.I’m talking to the suburban moms driving their Toyota SUVs, dropping the kids at T-ball, picking them up from ballet, running to the grocery store and somehow keeping track of 19 different schedules at once — and the dads who will eventually be standing in the backyard with a leaf net, a hose and a look that says, “Why did we wait until November?“Buy the TIXANF cover now, put it in the garage and have it ready for pool-closing day.When the temperature drops and the pool toys finally get banished to the shed, you’ll already have the biggest part of the winterization puzzle handled.So grab this deal before Labor Day, because your summer pool season is almost over.

Your pool cover should be ready before it is.Before you say goodbye to swimming for...
