Because the cost of diapers is wearing me out....

Ok, because the cost of EVERYTHING is wearing me out, I decided to get back into couponing and I am LOVING it. This sounds lame, but it is really a fun little hobby. I get a little thrill every time I save money. No, I could not go on Extreme Couponing. But I think I am still pretty cool. ;-)

My mommy friends should know about a particularly great deal right now on diapers at Walgreens. You can get the Walgreens brand diapers for $2.50 per pack. And before you say, EEEW, Walgreens brand???? Let me stop and say they are very nice diapers. I like them a lot. We have not had a single leak or blow out in one month. If you are still skeptical, I suggest you try them out for daycare where they change your kid, say, oh every 5 seconds.

Here is how the deal works:
1. Pick up an Infant Care Coupon Book (this is easier said than done, trust me. It takes looking around an asking) at your local Walgreens.
2. These diapers are normally $8.99 but are BIGI (buy one get one free)
3. The coupon is $2.00 off one pack of diapers.
4. If you buy 2 packs of diapers for $8.99 that makes them about $4.50 each. Then if you take $2 off EACH pack with the coupon, you are paying about $2.50 give or take a cent for each pack. You can buy as many as you want using one coupon.

I have purchased about 14 packs of diapers this way. Love them for daycare because one pack is easy to carry into daycare for the week. We are in size 3 now but I have some size 3, 4 and 5.

I have LOTS of these Infant Care Coupon Books because I looked and looked and one Walgreens lady felt so bad for me that she gave me like 15 of them, seriously. This is the second time the Walgreens diapers have gone on sale BIGI in the last month and the second time I have stocked up using this coupon at the $2.50 price. I know some naysayers would say "But is is that good of a deal? Could you score the same price per diaper at Costco or Sam's?" Perhaps. However, I don't have to have about $50 at once to buy these! :-) Hence the awesomeness!

If you can't find the coupon book and want one, send me your address and I will mail you one. I am not sure of the exact expiration date on these but it is too cool to pass up. There are other good coupons for Huggies, Triple Paste, etc. but the Walgreens diaper deal is the best so far. :-)

Happy Shopping!
