Re: Where is the cheapest place for diapers, creams, formula etc.?

Harmons/BBB is usually the cheapest place for creams etc bc u can use the store coupons and manufacturers coupons.

Ck out the blog babycheapskate.com or look for them on fb. Every sunday they post the lowest prices online and in stores for diapers, wipes and formula.

I get my diapers from BJ's. You can use the BJ's coupons AND the manufacturer coupon at the same time. Also, we go through a lot of diapers so I like to have a lot on hand.

I find that BJ is cheapest for formula and they take coupons and those checks. For creams and stuff I'm not sure because I haven't had to buy any since I got a ton for my shower. Diapers I usually get from BJ or Uncle Guiseppes when they are on sale

We found formula and diapers cheapest at costco. We would use those checks but they didn't take coupons.

You have to watch BRU for sales. I would somethimes go there when they would have their buy 2 diapers get a $15 GC. YOU REALLY HAVE TO SHOP AROUND.

We recently moved into an apt from our house and now order from amazon subscribe and save. It's a little more expensive (like a few cents) and we get it delivered now it's great

Bjs or Target. Bjs allows you to use coupons which makes diapers and wipes are cheap. I also buy a lot at amazon on.subscribe and save.

Re: Where is the cheapest place for diapers, creams, formula etc.?

I get luvs and find them cheapest on Amazon.com/mom they have 15% off for signing up to amazon mom and 15% off for subscribe and save.
I get the large box of size 4 which is 204 count for $28 and free shipping every month and you can change your order everytime it comes around if needed or add add'l orders in between.. before that I was buying them at Target at $16.99 for 96 count plus any coupons.
For other items you have to compare because it can be cheaper elsewhere. I usually go to Target for everything else and I always have manufacturs coupons as well as the store coupons..

Re: Where is the cheapest place for diapers, creams, formula etc.?

diapers- depending on the sale- diapers.com, amazon mom & subscribe & save, or bjs

when wipes are on sale I stock up- they were recently $12 on amazon for 700- I bought 3 cases which should last about 3-6 months

Rite Aid is really good when they have sales on diapers and wipes, and they usually do have sales and they also give you rewards as well as sales...for example, I bought pampers diapers on sale and on the receipt, I got an extra $2 off my next purchase
also, when you register online at pampers, similac, or whichever you use, they will send coupons

Target. They let you also combine their coupons and manufacturer.

I also keep my eye on CVS for sales. I save my extra bucks and use them toward baby items. Plus manufacturer coupons really help me save.
Just 2 weeks ago with the sale, my extra bucks and coupon I got a case of diapers for about $6.

Re: Where is the cheapest place for diapers, creams, formula etc.?

formula (at least for enfamil) best deal at BRU especially with Enfamil Checks and the gift card promotions they are always running

wipes BRU

Diapers - used to be amazon mom with subscibe and save but now maybe BRU, although I know this depends greatly on which brand you buy.

creams and stuff - BBB bc you can use their coupon and manufacturer coupon

Re: Where is the cheapest place for diapers, creams, formula etc.?

Diapers, cream, baby wash/lotion/oil, and Wipes- amazon mom and subscribe and save.....HANDS DOWN the best prices. I make my own wipes now, nad it is sooooooooooo cheap and they work AMAZING!

Buy Viva cut in 1/2 to make 2 short rolls the size of t.p.
Mix 2c water, 1T baby oil or olive oil, 2T baby wash and stir.

Place 1/2 a roll in a large tupperware and pour the liquid over it to saturate evenly. Wait 10 min and turn it over. 10 moin after that flip it back and remove the cardboard applicator and it will naturally start a roll from the inside. I use a tupperaware that is tall and cut a hole in top and pull the stuff through the top. They are thin, but they are hands down the BEST at being gentle and removing ANY poop easily! You can also youtube homemade baby wipes!!

As for formula I used Nestle Good Start and with their coupons, a Target sale, and a Target coupn I would stock up. I NEVER paid full price and it was way cheaper they buying another brand. Gerber sends awesome coupons and so does Target!

Viva is so expensive it's hard to imagine this being cost effective. Do you use much less b/c they work better- like 1 wipe instead of the 5+ that I always seem to use on a poop?

I bought a 12pack on sale for $14.99 and had a $2 off coupon. When you cut them in half you have 2 rolls so it's like having 24 rolls of this or double the number of wipes per package. We go through 1 whole roll, both halfs once a month so for roughly a years worth of wipes I spend $12.99 on the Viva, roughly $6 on baby wash, and roughly $6 on oil so for a years worth of wipes I spend under $40. You could use another brand like bounty if you want, but you need a good quality papertowel. They are very very think like pampers, but they are so good you only need 3 at most for a massive poop. You can also make it however you want. Use your baby wash or shampoo of choice and your oil of choice. I also use 3-4 drops of Tea Tree oil since I use it in my home made laundry soap as well.
