2010-02-11T09:00:00.001-07:00

Jumbo Pack of Diapers for $4.99 + Free Shipping

2010-02-08T13:37:00.007-07:00

If you're expecting, have a little one in diapers or are looking for a gift for someone with young children diapers are always a good idea. New customers to diapers.com can get 5 jumbo packs of premium diapers (Huggies/Pampers) for only $4.99/pack plus FREE delivery.

Here are the steps to follow to get this fantastic diaper deal:

Order 5 jumbo packs of diapers @ $9.99/ea
Use promotion code BABYKISS to save $10 off your first order over $49
Get complementary year of Parenting magazine or opt for $14.97 rebate
Get free shipping since order is over $49, before discounts

5 Packs * $9.99 = $49.95

- $10 BABYKISS = $39.95

- $14.97 Rebate = $24.98

This works out to $4.99/jumbo pack.

To lower your price per pack even further there are two additional options available.

1. There are diapers.com instant ecoupons that can be added once per order/customer.

Save $1.50/1 Pampers Easy Ups Trainers (jumbo packs are $11.99)

2. You can mail in manufacturer's coupons to diapers.com to apply to your order.

Since there's no expiration date available for the magazine rebate you do run the risk that the rebate may no longer be available.
