Saving money on brand name diapers for twins

30 March 2011

The same retailers that have good deals on formula also offer good deals on diapers. I'm talking about the warehouse clubs,Target, Walmart, pharmacies, grocery stores and of course amazon.com.

What is a good price for diapers? I believe it's 15c per diaper. The closer I can get to this price with a combination of sales and coupons, the better. Ah talking about coupons. The best source for coupons for the brand name diapers are the manufacturers themselves. You can write them and ask to be enrolled in their multiples program and they will respond with a supply of coupons in the mail. I recently did this and here is what I got in response:

Huggies
I sent a letter along with copies of their birth certificates to "Kimberly Clark , PO Box 2020, Dept. Q-M-B, Neenah, WI 54957. Less than 3 weeks later, I got the following coupons in the mail
2 coupons for $3 off any huggies product
3 coupons for $1 off any huggies product
Total retail value of first mailing = $9

Pampers
I sent a letter along with copies of their birth certificates to "The Proctor & Gamble Distributing LLC, Consumer Relations, P.O. Box 599, Cincinnati, OH 45201. Strangely enough, I mailed the letters to the two companies out the same day, and their replies came in the same day. Anyhos, this is what the good people of PampersLand sent me
1 coupon for a free jumbo pack of pampers diapers (SWEET!)
1 coupon for $5 off a jumbo or larger pack of diapers or pants
2 coupons for $2 off a jumbo or larger pack of diapers or pants
1 coupon for $1 off Pampers wipes


The Pampers folks were definitely more generous because signing up for Huggies rewards online gets me the same value in coupons mailed regularly. Now all I have to do is combine these coupons with sales at any of the outlets above and I should be able to meet or exceed my 15c per diaper goal.
Total retail value of first mailing = $22
