Diaper deals

Ok, I know some of you are excellent bargain shoppers, so I was wondering if anyone knew the best deals/places to get the Pampers Newborn swaddlers? When my daughter was a little older, I switched to cheaper diapers, but I've found these are the best ones for newborns. I want to start stocking up now, so I don't have to buy them all at once. I am realizing that I wasn't very good at using coupons and paying attention to sales with baby #1. I'd like to think I'm a little more thrifty now, but correct me if I'm wrong-it doesn't seem like the newborn swaddlers ever go on sale? I do have some manufacturer coupons for Pampers. Which stores have the best regular prices?

Just a quick warning: pampers were my absolute favorite diapers for my first son, so I stocked up with hundreds of them to use for when my twins were born. I was devastated to find that both my twins were allergic to the pampers swaddlers, so I had to try to trade them all back at Walmart and had a bit of a hard time getting them to do so...

Good luck with that though! Our local Maceys does have them on sale sometimes and with the manufacturer's $2 off coupon, I could get the jumbo pack (48?) for 6.99. Walmart was the other cheapest place if they weren't on sale. It seems to me that Huggies go on sale more often than Pampers.

I've never ordered from diapers.com, but one of the coupon blogs I follow posted this deal yesterday. It might be worth looking into.

babycheapskate.com posts each week where the best diaper deals are. Just try to get as many coupons from friends and family as you can and combine that with sales to get the best possible deals. By doing that sometimes you can get Pampers or Huggies even cheaper than the off brands.

Walgreens will randomly have them on sale and usually with register rewards. Target is where I most often buy them because of their sales and/or deals where you get $5 gift card back and/or Target baby coupons with or without a manufacturer coupon.

I think diapers.com is the best deal when you use the $10 off coupon and have the free shipping. I LOVE using them, they deliver them right to your door! Just be careful because they come in such huge boxes. You don't want to have TOO many newborn swaddlers (in huge boxes) because your baby might outgrow them before you've used them up, (my 1st baby surprised us by being huge and was already wearing size 1 diapers within 2 weeks.) Also, you can't return the big boxes anywhere. So you might want to order a size 1, 2, 2-3 as well with your order. You can use the $10 off a first-time order many times, you just have to create a new account each time AND USE A SEPARATE COMPUTER, cause it tracks your IP address.

The other place to get the huge boxes of Pampers is Babies R Us, if you live near one, and they usually have coupons that put them on sale for $35-37 for a box of several hundred diapers. You CAN return unopened boxes to them, within 90 days, with a receipt.

I LOVE SWADDLERS, THEY ARE THE BEST DIAPERS IN THE WORLD!
