How to Get a GREAT Deal on Diapers

noreply@blogger.com (Tatums) — Mon, 28 Feb 2011 18:53:00 +0000

Diapers are probably the biggest baby expense we have. There are several things that I do to save a TON of money on diapers. They are super easy and really don't take a lot of time.
First is SWAGBUCKS. If you have not heard of them before it is great! Sign up for a free account and use them like you would Google to search the internet. You earn random points for searching. If you have kids or a husband, let them search using your account and you will earn points FAST. You can use your earned points to purchase Amazon.com gift cards. I usually earn two $5 cards a month.

Second, sign up for Amazon Mom. For every eligible purchase you make you save 10% off your order and you get FREE Amazon Prime membership (which you can use for other non-baby items).

Third, purchase your diapers & wipes with "Subscribe and Save" this should save you and additional 20 % off your order. Amazon will set you up to recieve a new shipment of diapers at whatever interval you choose (1 month, 3 months, etc.). After your order has arrived you can cancel your "Subscribe & Save" subscription.

Finally, sign up for free baby magazines. Several baby magazines have coupons for $10 or 20% off Amazon.com diaper purchases. You can click here to get a free subscription to Baby Talk magazine. You can also find coupon inserts in magazines at the library or doctors offices.

All these deals combined will give you upwards of 50% off your order. I just ordered the box of diapers pictured here for $10.36. There is NO sales tax and they are delivered free in about 2 days!

I hope you will take advantage of these savings! I haven't paid full price for diapers in MONTHS and I have them delivered to my doorstep.

Maybe this will help you out with your monthly budget. If you have any questions please feel free to ask. I would love to help you learn how to save a little extra money.

Susan
