Diaper Deals

Those of you with kids, planning to have kids, or know someone with kids, this Diaper Deal Round Up is for you. My #1 advice to expecting moms or those planning to have kids is to never pay full price for diapers. Always use a coupon and combine with a great sale. Stock up on diapers because you will never have enough. I stocked up for baby Patrick before he was born and through his 6 month "birthday." I have not bought diapers since October. My goal to to make it through his 1st birthday without buying any more diapers for him. We're two months away and I can easily get to March 31, and now I am thinking we'll be good till he is 18 months old.

Here is a Round Up of pretty good diapers sales this week. I would consider these stock up prices, if you have the coupons to make the deals work. I do not consider these prices worthy of driving all over town to hit up every.single.store though.

Diaper deals round up for the week of 1/23!

Use 3 $1.50/1 coupons

Spend $22.47 OOP, get a $5 Target gift card
Final Price = $17.47 after coupons/gift card ($5.82/each!)

NOTE:  I always keep a $5 Target gift card "on hand" to "roll" into deals like this!  This is a pretty good price if you use Pampers since they don't go on sale as often as Huggies.  You should be able to mix and match the Pampers and Huggies, too!

< Thanks, Melissa, for the Diaper Sale Round Up >

Also worth mentioning is the recommended Diaper Stock Up:
                   Size        QTY of Packages  (based on jumbo packs)
1                     10  (~440 diapers)
2                     22  (~946 diapers)
3                     24  (~888 diapers)
4                     18  (~594 diapers)
Size 5 and 6 are variable as your child may or may not ever get to that size.
Isabella wore size 5 for a limited time because she was smaller and potty trained at 22 months.
JJ wore size 5 for about 4 or 5 months, and we went through about 10 packs of size 5 before he transitioned to Pull-Ups and Underwear. He started potty training at 26 months.
