Stockpile Pics: MrsPinecone's Stockpile Pictures -- Come and admire my new shelves!!!

[MrsPinecone]

Baby stockpile: wipes cover the entire top shelf of the closet (7 high, 2 deep) and some are stacked on the right side. The basket outside the closet is full of washes, powders, lotions, pacifiers, tooth stuff and various samples and ointments. Diapers are stacked to the rail across half of the closet, and lower in the rest of the space-- total of 63 packs.

MrsP, what I wouldn't have given to have had that stockpile when DD was born! Great job!

Once again I'm jealous of all the baby items you seem to get.

What is the average cost you are paying for diapers/wipes?

Tracey, Huggies was running several coupons that made for great deals on wipes and bath products when paired with store sales. I *think* all of those coupons have expired now. :frown:

I recently got 40 tubs of wipes free with overage. Diapers were mostly the CVS deal last year, and I don't think I paid more than $2 a pack after ECBs and coupons.

There's plenty of stuff we still need! Just not diapers, wipes or washes/lotions/powder! LOL

I missed out on the $2 blinkies - never found them in my area. The best deal I had was 2 jumbo packs of Pampers at Target - they were on sale for 2 for $17 so I used 2 $2/1 plus 1 $3/2 and I thought that was a great deal! I need more wipes so I'm in search of a good deal. CVS now has the diapers on sale B1G1 so that would be 2 packs for $13.98 and Walgreens has the diapers on sale for $4.99 - which I bought my first pack yesterday to give them a try - so far so good, no complaints

That si GREAT!!! Trust me you go through sooooo many wipes. I think I need to take this coupon business a little more serious and start trading off the coupons I don't need.

[MrsPinecone]

Taking it seriously and trading are the ONLY reasons that I have such a good stockpile. I track expenditures on Money, and between January 2005 and June of 2006, I only spent $405 on baby items, and that included all of the clothing and $55 for the crib set on ebay. I used coupons from Carter's and Osh Kosh for EVERY item of clothing.

My goal is to be able to live off the stockpile for more than a couple of months after the baby is born.
