Gladon 2-Piece Swimming Pool Cover Clip, 48PK

Omg, I absolutely love these little tools. I can't believe I've had a pull my entire life and have just discovered these. They are so much nicer for keeping your winter cover in place then that ridiculous cable. The cable never really gets tight enough, so every year we use string to tie the cover to the supports. These little Clips are a game changer. They made putting on and taking off my winter cover so much easier by myself. Highly recommend. Note: you have to understand that because they're in freezing temperatures for 6 months at a time, they will stretch out. But, they're very affordable, so I just add 10 new ones every year for Extra Strength.
