Diapers and Wipes - What is a good price????


Ok, followers. I started collecting diapers before Emily was born to get good prices. It gave me time to study up on the prices of diapers and wipes and learn when to buy. There were some awesome deals as Amazon was premiering their Amazon Mom program at the time. (Learn more about Amazon Mom here)

I am using size 3 diapers since this is the size they seem to stay in the longest. The best place I have found to get diapers is at the drug stores so I will be posting deals as I see them. I get free packs sometimes or as low as $3 to $4/pack using coupons.

Here is what I learned:

Diapers (Size 3 - Diapers)
If you just go into a store (Target, Walmart, or Grocery store) you will pay $8.99 typically for a pack of diapers (Pampers and Huggies) The break down for each diaper is .25/diaper. Wow that is a lot!!!!

Here are comparisons from Sams Club and Amazon (Using size 3 diapers)
Just remember Price/# of diapers to get the price per diaper.

Sams Club

Sams Club Brand(200) - .16/ diaper

Pampers Baby Dry(222) - . 19/diaper

Pampers Cruisers(186) - .23/diaper

Huggies(228) - .19/diaper

Luvs(204) - .14/diaper

Amazon (with Amazon Mom - Subscribe and Save program - save 30% off)
*Prices vary from week to week* They also have coupons too that can lower the price.

Pampers Baby Dry(222) - .14/diaper

Huggies Snug & Dry(156) - .17/diaper

Luvs(234) - .11/diaper

So be sure when you are using coupons you beat the Amazon deals or it is just better to buy from them.

Wipes

Here are the best prices I found.


If you buy the small packs of 72 they are .027/wipe if you pay $2 for them.

Sams Club (720 ct)

Huggies - .021/wipe

Member's Mark - .018/wipe

Amazon - (720 ct)
