Grace, you STILL don't have a pool? Whatcha waitin' for???????

We actually had an Intex 15' donut for 3 years...If you just want to float in a lounge chair with a cool drink, it's just as nice a the big pool we have now--and not at all expensive. My size has gone from $500-$600, down to around $200.

There are some GREAT A/G alternatives that give you all or most of the features of an I/G with far less hassle. The two top-end rectangular pools are Splashpools and FantaSea. Besides, A/Gs have MAJOR tax advantages over IGs.

If you can manage your own dig and planning there are IG kits that run around $7000.
