How long will these diapers last???...

That is my big question. What do you think? We don't have a baby yet. But, I am trying to stock up on baby necessities before this baby comes.

So, here are my 27 packages of diapers (I gave one away as a baby shower gift :o)) AND My 9 packages of wipes. (The diapers have between 45 and 55 in each package) So how long do you think these will last me? Three months, Four months, Five months???

I did the math...If the baby needs a diaper change 5x's a day. These diapers will last 10 months!!! WOW! I hope I got enough of the right sizes. These are all Newborn and 1's and a few 3's. I couldn't find 2's. I will probably end up returning some for different sizes.



This is how I got $420.00 worth of diapers and wipes for $162.00

I am not a person who uses coupons. I'd like to, but it seems to be more hassle than it is worth. I have two good friends from Arizona that used coupon sense and would show me 30 bottles of shampoo that they got for free. Or several packages of Toilet paper, or cleaners, that they got for free. Or even better... they would have a whole shopping cart full of stuff that they got for $3.00. The whole cart for $3.00? That just blew my mind!!! They would try to explain how they would use their coupons to get all this free stuff and it went over my head and still seemed like too much work. Well, I had my first experience with FREE this weekend!!! And LOVED IT! So let me see if I can explain this where it makes since.....
Deb called me and told me about this deal at Walgreen's...
Huggies Diapers (Jumbo pack) on sale for $10.00
At Walgreen's, if you spend over $25. you get a $10. print out coupon to use later.
So, Buy two packages of diapers for $20.00 and a pack of refill wipes for 6.00
That makes your order total 26.00. You get a $10.00 print out coupon. Plus, you use your $5.00 off coupon that you can print twice from coupons.com. So that makes $10.00 off. PLUS, I have my $10.00 print out coupon to go buy $10.00 of FREE diapers later. That basically makes the two packages of diapers and wipes I bought - $6.00 TOTAL! OH my goodness! I know this sounds so lame! But it was so fun!!!! We did this 8 times! We have 2 computers at home and Tim brought his two lap top's from work so we were able to print out these coupons 8 times!!! And then, there was also a $3.00 off coupon we printed 8 times!!! So 16 coupons TOTAL! You use 2 coupons at a time so, I got 8 $10.00 coupons from Walgreen's. I went back and bought $80.00 worth of diapers. AND, AND, AND, every purchase I got a $5.00 off coupon on Enfamil formula. So I have 8 of those coupons. I'm just waiting for a good formula deal to come around like the diaper deal. :o)
Tim, being so sweet (but made me mad) used 5 of those $10 print outs and bought me $50.00 worth of more Huggies so I didn't have to do it later. I tried to be grateful and not show him I was mad. But my plan was to use all 8 of those $10.00 Walgreen's print out coupons to buy the cheaper Walgreen's diapers to get DOUBLE the diapers because they were 1/2 the price @ 4.50 each for the same size package as the Huggies. But at least I still had 3 of the $10. coupons in the car. So I was able to go back and get $60. worth of diapers for FREE. Could have been more like $160. worth of diapers for FREE but, oh well.
