    They update best buys on diapers, formula and all kinds of other baby stuff weekly.

    We bought Huggies Swaddlers for the first month or so but have switched to Luvs. They work great!

    Congrats!

    I seem to recall not being able to find newborn sized diapers at Costco. We used Pampers Swaddlers for the first few months and then switched to Costco when the girls hit Size 2.

    Good luck and congrats in advance on your babies!

    We use diapers.com. I order from them every month. The shipping is free and their price on Pampers Swaddlers is competitive with our Sam's Club. It is super convenient and they have great customer service. Also, you can get $10 off your first order (just google for the coupon code). I also got a free years subscription to Parenting magazine with my first order. I highly recommend them :D !

    Ditto, I love ordering from there, I tend to order a bunch at once and stock up. They also have the Huggies overnights in size 3, very hard to find in stores.

    I just started using diapers.com too. Priced almost identical to Sam's, but Sam's will not accept coupon nor do they deliver?! :) So, far we've been happy.

    I posted this in the Expecting Forum a couple of days ago:

    Thought some of you might be interested in this. I just placed my first order at diapers.com. Packs of newborn Pampers Swaddlers were $19.95 for a 96-count pack. That's the same price for an 80-count pack at Walmart. Also, since I ordered more than $50 worth, there was no shipping. If you use this referral code ELJA8460, you will get $5 off your first order and I get $1 credit for a future order.

    I also noticed they sell BumGenius cloth diapers for those of you who plan to CD.


    The diapers came very quickly.

    Diapers.com has a lot of other staples at pretty competitive prices, too. Depending where you are, their delivery is lightening fast - usually way faster than I can get organized to go to the store to pick stuff up!

    we buy all our diapers and formula from our grocery store. It is only marginally more than at costcos. Our store of choice, giant, has one of those clubs that run promotions. Last month was gas for 10 cents a gallon off with every $100 spent. This month it is a free Easter ham or 10% off whole order after a certain amount. With having diapers and formula count towards those rewards makes our entire bill cheaper. Not to mention giant is 2 miles from our house and costco walmart bru and target are over 10 miles away and with gas prices I factor that all in.

    We have used diapers.com from the very beginning. They were the only place we could find Pampers Swaddlers in the newborn size and the convenience of having it delivered to your door and free shipping made it totally worthwhile. Price wise, they seem to be comparable if not a little cheaper than getting them elsewhere.

    Good luck with your babies! :)

    wouldn't buy newborns until you know if you need them... We didn't.... The hospital gave us TONS so by the time we ran out of newborns they were in size 1's! With that said I did buy diapers from Diapers.com and LOVED it!!! I love the fact that they do take coupons if you mail them in to them ahead of time and if you buy more than 50.00 you get free shipping! If you are really interested in saving $$$ use disposables for the first couple of months and then switch to cloth! They are much easier than the old fashion kind with velcro tabs that fasten just like a disposable and you can buy 1 size diapers that will last from 5-35 lbs!! Most likely by the time you are at 35lbs you wont be using diapers anymore!!! I say wait a couple of months only because it takes a while to get the new mom thing down, but once you have that down cloth is easy. No rinsing in the toilet or soaking in bleach or anything crazy like that any questions PM me and I will be glad to help!

    Also in the PARENTS magazine there is a 10.00 discount off your 1st purchase... Here is the code: PTG7

    They sell BumGenious which are exactly the same price in stores as they are at diapers.com so no worries there either! Also bumGenious are AWESOME diapers!!!
