There are plenty of comparison websites out there that'll check prices for you - so don't be left paying more than you have to.
How to keep cool in hot weather
Most of us welcome hot weather, but when it's too hot, there are health risks. Here are three ways to keep cool according to the NHS...
Keep out of the heat if you can.
If you have to go outside, stay in the shade especially between 11am and 3pm, wear sunscreen, a hat and light clothes, and avoid exercise or activity that makes you hotter.
Cool yourself down.
Have cold food and drinks, avoid alcohol, caffeine and hot drinks, and have a cool shower or put cool water on your skin or clothes.
Keep your living space cool.
Close windows during the day and open them at night when the temperature outside has gone down. Electric fans can help if the temperature is below 35 degrees. Check the temperature of rooms, especially where people at higher risk live and sleep.
Most of them work by comparing the prices across hundreds of retailers.
Idealo is another website that lets you compare prices between retailers.
All shoppers need to do is search for the item they need and the website will rank them from the cheapest to the most expensive one.
CamelCamelCamel only works on goods being sold on Amazon.
To use it, type in the URL of the product you want to check the price of.

Argos 'perfect' no inflate paddling pool is £2.78 if shoppers do one thing
As the mercury rises and school holidays loom, many parents are looking for cost-effective and enjoyable ways to keep their children amused and cool this summer. A garden paddling pool is a popular choice but its setup and dismantling can often prove challenging. Argos offers a solution with its best-selling Bestway 6ft Fun Odyssey Pool, which requires no inflation and is easy to assemble. Simply unbox, unroll, fill with water, and it's ready for use. Usually priced at £18, savvy shoppers can get one of the paddling pools for less than £3 by using a money saving website, reports the Manchester Evening News. Bargain hunters who sign up as new members at TopCashback get get a free £15 sign-up bonus plus a percentage of their spend back every time they shop online at thousands of retailers, including Argos. This means new Argos customers shopping through TopCashback for the first time will effectively get the Bestway 6ft Fun Odyssey Pool for £2.78 after cashback while for shoppers who've bought from Argos before it works out at £2.85 after cashback. To get the offer shoppers need to sign up here and then shop normally with Argos. The cashback will track and then be available to withdraw, offering a straightforward way to save money. With much of the UK sweltering under temperatures up to 30 degrees, many of other retailers are offering deals on paddling pools, outdoor toys and even bargain hot tubs. More than 1,000 shoppers have already splashed out on the Splosh Inflatable Family Swimming Pool this month which measures 2m x 1.5m and currently costs £22.99. Meanwhile, Debenhams has the Intex 4 Seater Paddling Pool on offer for £50. Shoppers who don't want an entire pool set up in the garden perhaps for space or safety reasons can instead pick up a sprinkler splash pad on Amazon for £21.99. Meanwhile anyone looking for a grown up equivalent can currently get a huge £110 off the Lay-Z-Spa Honolulu 6-person hot tub at Argos with it reduced to £440. The Bestway Fun Odyssey Pool remains one of the best value options even before shoppers take advantage of the TopCashback deal. At its initial £18 price tag it has garnered hundreds of positive reviews. The pool is six feet in diameter making it an ideal size for young children. It takes roughly 15 minutes to fill and can double as a sandpit during chillier months. Bestway recommends the pool for children aged three and above, and insists on adult supervision during use. The pool also includes a repair kit for any unfortunate punctures. The pool has earned an impressive average rating of 4.2 out of five from over 200 reviews. A pleased customer shared: "For years we've had these pools. So much better and longer-lasting than the inflatable ones. Kids always love them." Another buyer commented: "Easy to put up. No pumping required, just roll up to put away. My three-year-old grandchild loved it especially when we put the end of the slide into the water." A different user remarked: "Perfect pool for the kids," continuing: "Bought this as a replacement to the blow up versions. No more trying find a pump, just unpack and fill to desired depth." However, one reviewer gave the Bestway 6ft Fun Odyssey Pool a moderate three-star rating, noting: "It's not too bad. You really need a flat surface for it to work well. We have a slight tilt and the water filled up it collected to that side." Yet another shopper expressed satisfaction with their Argos buy, stating: "Great pool for summer, its so easy to put up as you don't need to inflate it. Quite large, it does have high sides so can be filled up to the level you like which is great. Easy to empty as you can just fold the sides under the water, fab addition to keep the kids entertained over summer." Bestway has several other pools stocked by Argos which can also be bought using the TopCashback offer. This larger 7ft rectangular inflatable option TopCashback new member bonus.
