How to Save BIG on Diapers!

In my last post, I talked about I got started couponing because of my need to save money on diapers. I got so many emails asking me to share my tips on the diaper deals so I am doing a quick post to answer all the questions!

The first step is to decide where you want to shop. There are a lot of couponers that will drive all over God's green earth for a deal but that is not me! I also don't like places where I have to deal with store " cash" like CVS. There are some great deals there but you get your savings in the form of Extra Cash Bucks and you have to remember to use them or the deal wasn't that great. Not my cup of tea. My favorite place to buy diapers is Target.  My last diaper purchase I bought 950 diapers and it lasted me 9 months until my daughter was potty trained.

Target has excellent prices on their UP & Up brand diapers anyway. Right this minute you can get ( size 2 for discussion sake) 172 diapers for $24.99 and when you buy 3 you get a $15 gift card and that's before any coupons, cartwheel, or red card discounts. Then periodically Target offers a $10 off $40 Up& Up purchase which can usually be printed or cut out of their weekly flyer. You can also usually get an extra 5-10% off using the Target cartwheel app on your phone. And then you can ALSO use your red card to save an additional 5%.

(3) 172 count Target diapers @ $24.99 = $74.97
+. (1) 460 count Target wipes @ 9.99=. $9.99
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Total $84.96
- (2) $10 off $40 Up & Up coupons. $20.00
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Total $64.96
- 10% off Up and Up diapers on cartwheel. $6.49
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Total. $58.47
- 5% Redcard discount. $2.92
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Total for 516 diapers and 460 wipes = $55.55

Then if the $15 gift card deal was also going you would get that when you purchased as well driving the price down further. The $10 offcoupon is not available currently but it's still a good deal if you need diapers now. The trick is just to really stock up when they are rock bottom prices. Keep in mind when stocking up that your child might need a bigger size sooner than later and throw some larger sizes in the mix if you might need them.
