Apostrophe in the word days?

Where would you put the apostrophe in this phrase (when look at the price of getting into an attraction):

2 days for 10 pounds or

2 days’ for 10 pounds.

I assume the latter because we are getter two days something for a pound, eg: two days entrance for a pound.

You would not use an apostrophe in that sentence. Replace the word with something else. 2 kittens for 10 pounds. You wouldn’t put one on kittens, would you?

You don’t use an apostrophe before the “s” in the plural form of a noun.

You use it only in the possessive form.

If the noun is plural, if it is already followed by an “s,” and you need to write the plural possesive, then you put the apostrophe outside the “s.”

I was on a diet for two days and lost 10 pounds.

Two days’ dieting resulted in a 10-pound loss.
