Why Black Friday Is the Smart Time to Buy a Pool Float for 2027
The best time to buy a designer pool float is out of season, in November to February. At Playoffside, pool float orders peaked in June 2026 with 86 orders, against 11 in November 2025, and popular colours sell out in late spring. Buying around Black Friday means more colours to choose from, no summer queue, and a float ready for the first warm day of 2027.

Two patterns stand out. Demand rises sharply from March and peaks in June. And November is busier than the months around it, as people use Black Friday and Christmas to buy for the next summer.
Why buy a pool float in November?
- More colours. The Starfish comes in ten colours, but only a few are in stock at any time, and they go fastest in May and June.
- No rush. You can choose calmly, compare sizes and measure your space.
- A ready-made Christmas gift. See our guide to pool floats as Christmas gifts.
- Easy to store until spring. Our winter storage guide explains how.
