Any tips on saving money on diapers?

Question

Coupon queens! I need help and advice where is the best place to buy them, how can I keep on top of sales and deals! Where can I get coupons! Should I buy in bulk? Ect trying to save as much as possible on diapers!

Answer

Cloth diapers save a ton of money! My baby is 6 months old and I've probably only spent about $350 on diapers. I won't need anymore. They will last her until she is potty trained and I can use them for future babies. Also, I'll be able to sell them all when I'm done having kids. I haven't noticed an increase in my water or electric bill. I use fairly inexpensive detergent and it's the same that we use for our clothes. I love it!

Bianca - I recently started using the flushable liners. Pee goes through them, but they catch the poop and I can just flush that down the toilet.

My set up is like this: If he has a blowout and poop gets on the diaper, I dunk the diaper in the toilet and get as much of the bulk off as I can. I have a 5 gallon bucket with a lid in my bathroom that I fill up with soapy water (dish detergent). I toss the diapers and inserts into the bucket until the bucket gets full. Then I wash them. If there is no bulky poop on the diaper, they just go straight into the bucket. I wash maybe every 3rd day.

Answer

Buy in bulk! Basically I calculate cost per diaper. So if a box is $18.00, with 100 diapers, 18/100 = it is 18 cents per diaper. Up and up are about 17 cents a diaper so I shoot for that or lower. Target often has buy 2 boxes, get a gift card deals and I use the gift card to get the next months diapers! 
The only time I don't buy in bulk is if they're about to go up a size

Answer

I want to be a coupon queen 😞

Answer

If you have Amazon prime, they have a subscription service. You get a discount for having prime and then another discount for subscribing and I think a third discount for subscribing to five items. We have a big box of wipes delivered the same day every month. Once my son is out of the newborn diaper size (he's kind of in between sizes) I'll set up the diaper subscription. Check it out and see if it helps you.

Answer

I buy most of mine at CVS, and usually pay less than 10 cents a diaper after coupons, extra care bucks, and cash back apps. I started stockpiling in the 2nd trimester, so I can be selective about buying diapers. For example, tomorrow I'll be getting 2 packs of diapers for about 8 cents a diaper. Find a good coupon blog to get sales and coupon matchups. I use southernsavers.com.

Answer

Definitely cloth diapers!

Answer

So I watch the sales. I have yet to have my baby and I have about 3000diapers and about 4000wipes in my stash. I started my stash at 16weeks.

My favorite place to get them is Target the wipes are pretty easy to find anywhere. I prefer huggies and Luvs (was previously a nanny and noticed those worked the best for a variety of children). My friend likes honest diapers and always finds those at bargain hunt.

I look for manufacture coupons to also stack on top of the gift cards. Some "hidden discounts" at target. If it's on sale it's usually additional 5-10% off on cartwheel. Additional 5% off transactions when you bring your own bags. Additional 5% when using a red card debit card. That's 15-20%!!!! Stack that and the sales and a gift card.

Here is a coupon for babies r us.

Try the generic brands - parents choice, white cloud, up & up
