Diapers with Bang for Buck
I am looking for a diaper that will give me more "bang for my buck." I use White Cloud (walmart brand) quite frequently, in the value pack, i get 124 diapers for about 15$. I also recently bough Huggies Baby shaped fit, they were 228 for 34$ at Sam's Club. My mother-in-law bough Pampers Baby dry to keep at her house when we visit. I am looking for any other recommendations, or what other parent's like. I feel the Huggies are more stretchier and comfortable than the White Cloud ones. although they did seem a little pricey. What about Luvs? does anyone love them or hate them, and how do they compare price wise? Can you get a value pack? My daughter is 4 1/2 months old and is in a size 2.
So What Happened?™
well i may have turned into a "diaper snob" but i have stuck with the huggies baby shaped fit, i love the stretchiness, and i keep the pampers baby dry at my mom-in-laws still, i don't know if we will go back to the white cloud, they just didn't seem to hold up as well as the huggies, the huggies do a good job of keeping the wetness away more.

I personally like pampers. They are less bulky, I've never had a leak, and they are economical. Along with having just lowered their prices you can go to their website and sign up for the mailing club. Every month they will send you a whole thing of coupons for diapers and wipes. It's the best way to go in my opinion.

I have a 3 year old and when she was a baby she would leak out of all kinds of diapers, but I found luvs to be the most economical and also held the most.

I've usually loved Huggies except recently my 5 mo son has been leaking out the side at night. I love the stretchiness of Huggies. I hate putting my babies in a diaper that doesn't give any on their tummy. The more expensive Pampers are nice too but my god they cost too much. I know I didn't like Luvs when I tried them with my daughter but maybe I'll give them a try again. Alot of people on here seem to like them. Also...I did try the walmart brand (parents choice) when my daughter was about 2. We didn't have any problem with them either.

I have twin girls, and when they were little, I tried all different kinds, we started with pamped because they needed preemie sizes, and at about sz 2 stage tthey were just too expensive, next we used the "Berkely and Johnson" Brand from BJ's which were good. Ultimately though, I turned to Luvs.... They were great!!!The quality was comperable to Pampers with a much lower price(I believe they're actually made by the same company).... it's hard to find them in sizes smaller than three, but I found out after searching for a friend, that Target carries them in ALL sizes. I would reccommend them to anyone!!!!

I have a 7 year old, 4 year old and a 7 month old. Truly like the commercial, I have lived with Pampers and Huggies thinking oh Pampers are soft, Huggies are stretchy, and depending on my childs needs at the time switched between the two. However, about 4 months into each childs life I have found myself looking to save money and turned to Luvs. I also swear by them. They have a leak guarantee, and I have never had to send them in. I even forgot to change my daughter once (thought my husband did it) and 5 1/2 hours later realized how long she had been, but not a rash in sight and no complaints from her! Luvs are the best......and although no coupons/sales like the others, they are still cheaper.
I buy mine at BJs Wholesale in a case.

I love Luvs! I used them for both my kids, and have never had a problem with them! I have also used the CVS brand, which is $9 for like 34 in size 4. I don't really like Pampers or Huggies, but I have to use the pullups for my daughter. I wish Luvs made the pullups, could I would use those too.

I buy the WalMart brand Parent's Choice. We get 40 size 3 diapers for $5.74! They don't bother her, so we have stuck with them. I heear they aren't so good for boys, though. They tend to leak.
