The Chad Valley Sand and Water Pit usually costs £28 but parents can get it for less(Image: Argos)
A “sturdy” sand and water pit loved by children and dogs to keep cool in the warm weather can be picked up for £2.10 in an eye-catching deal. The Chad Valley Sand and Water Pit typically costs £28, however a double deal means it can be snapped up for a fraction of the price.
The first saving comes via Argos, where a third has been knocked off, taking the price down to £18. But there’s a way to shave another £15+ off the cost.
It comes via money-saving website TopCashback, where new members who join here benefit from a £15 signup bonus when spending £15 or more at a participating retailer. That means that for new TopCashback members and new Argos customers, the pit works out at £2.10 after cashback.
Existing Argos customers will pay a bit more, with it working out at £2.93 after cashback, for new TopCashback members. Click and collect from an Argos store is free, while standard delivery costs from £4.95. The sand and water pit is shaped like an apple and is designed to “provide the kids with hours of garden fun”.
Coming with two pits, it’s also suitable to use with play balls and is suitable for age one and above, though obviously with adult supervision. The 71 reviews to date average out at an impressive 4.7 out of 5.

One said: “Great set for playing. Sand in one side paddle in the other. You can put the top on when bad weather or not being used.”
Another continued: “Bought this for my dog as it’s much more sturdy than the dog specific ones and can take his digging. It’s a good size for my Labrador to splash around in and I’ve been using the second shell to keep cool during the heatwave. Everyone is happy and I’d recommend.”
A third went on: “Sturdy sand pit which can also be used for water. Room for several children to play round. A more rounded shape than my previous one which should make it more durable.”
While another added: “Very pleased with the sand and water pit, our dogs love it. And a good price.”
Despite the positive feedback, a small number of reviewers did flag some drawbacks, including one who pointed out: “I bought this to provide a digging pit for my dog. It’s a good size and can hold plenty of sand. However, it’s quite flimsy and probably wouldn’t withstand much punishment.”

Another mentioned “the plastic is not all that hard-wearing”. There are lots of other options out there too, including on Amazon, where the Intex Duckling Snapset Pool is £12.99.
