subscribing b/c I'm curious too! Baby Cheapskate seems to have a diaper/wipe roundup, both online and in store, every week. But I haven't bought any diapers yet...we have a few hundred size 1s and 2s, and a couple packs of 3s and 4s from the shower. Plus a couple cases of wipes.

We only ever considered Pampers for our LO. We found the best deal to be BRU. They routinely have sales on their cases. Buy 2 cases of diapers and a box of wipes and get a $20-$35 store card. We just re-stocked recently as they had these types of sales back to back during the holidays. If you use their VIB program as well you get some additional monies.

We had only been using Pampers Swaddlers sensitive for DD and found the cheapest place to be Amazon Prime/mom

I've heard the cheapest way to do it is through CVS with the smaller packs and coupons/extrabucks/sales. But I just don't have the time or energy to figure that all out, but those who do get like..free diapers!!
I bought mine before I delivered in a combination - some from target with a manufacturer & target coupon on top of a sale, some from BRU on sale and with a manufacturer coupon, and some through BJs with a BJs coupon and manufacturer.
LO is 3 months old, and we still have 1 large case unopened, and 2 smaller boxes unopened (of 100 diapers or so?).
ETA - we exclusively use pampers swaddlers

Kirkland at Costco. We stock up when they are on coupon. Size 1-2s are like 11/12 cents each with coupon. Size 3+ are 15 cents with coupon.

I have a potentially stupid question about Baby Cheapskates -- all her diaper deals are listed as Size 3s. Why is that? Is it that seriously nothing but Size 3 ever goes on sale? Or is she just using Size 3 as an example? It drives me NUTS.
Also, subscribing I wish we had a Costco near us. I think Diapers.com would end up being the cheapest for us, or Amazon Subscribe and Save.

@ladyfingers: because if you calculate the cost per diaper using different sizes you wouldn't be able to compare the prices. so she uses size 3 (i think most babies are in 3s the longest) for all listings so you can see the price per diaper.

@mrs. bird: OK that makes sense. It seriously drove me nuts trying to figure out why Size 3 diapers were the only diapers that ever went on sale haha. I am dumb sometimes.

I usually use a coupon or just buy store brand. I'm sure there are better, cheaper ways but I don't have the time to go through all that!

We do store brand onsale at BRU. We've gotten the price down to about 10 cents a diaper. Also Safeway has had some great sales on Luvs and Pampers, you just have to watch out for them.

We only use Pampers Swaddlers, and I usually use Amazon Subscribe & Save, but I check the weekly updates at baby cheapskate.com to see if any stores have them for cheaper. Sometimes Target has pretty good deals on Pampers.
