With a lot of my friends becoming mothers or already are mother's I feel this blog post is very important. It is never too early to start preparing. Babies are great and as much as anyone says I want to be financial stable before I have a child, lets face it, that is not always the case and even if you are...prices are crazy for baby stuff and your baby is going to need a lot. So here is a few good things to keep in mind.
Diapers are expensive!!!!! And if you want to stick to a certain brand you want to stock up at a good price. The bigger size you need, the less that come in the packages/boxes so many women go by the price of each individual diaper.
Amazon has a special account just for parents. You will get discounts on items and you can request that item to be automatically delivered every so often.
Here is some prices I compared:
Amazon:
Pamper's swaddlers size 1- 216 diapers/box
$43.00/ $.20 each
Walmart:
Pamper's swaddlers size 1- 168 diapers/box
$37.94/$.23 each
Walgreens:
Pamper's swaddlers size 1- 216 diapers/box
$47.99/$.22 each
Just in those few comparisons you can see the better deal is amazon. But is it that way as you get bigger sizes?
Amazon:
Pamper's swaddlers size 4- 144 diapers/box
$45.99/ $.32 each
Walmart:
Pamper's swaddlers size 4-116 diapers/box
$37.94/ $.33 each
Walgreens:
Pamper's swaddlers size 4-144 diapers/box
$47.99/ $.33 each
So there is kinda an idea. You want to know your everyday prices and know when it is a good deal. So for the size 1 if you can get it cheaper than $.20 each jump on it. If you can get it cheaper at size 4 for $.32 jump on it. Now this is just one brand and 2 sizes. But you see the point.
Remember babies do grow so don't stock up on a bunch of the same size but do a variety. Babies are going to need diapers for a while
I hope this helps and as always Happy Couponing :)
