In a post on Facebook group 'Extreme Couponing and Bargains Group UK', the woman called Abby explained how she had found a free hack for transporting water from her kitchen to her garden without going back and forth.
The clever parent shared pictures showing how she had attached an old plastic bottle to her tap in order divert the flow down a hose and into the pool in her backyard.
She wrote: "How I got my kids paddling pool warm today, yes it took a while but way better than 100000000000000000000 bucket trips."
