As most mothers know - its quite hard to save money on baby essentials such as nappies, wipes and food. The costs of such products are sky high but no one can do without them causing quite a catch 22.This article is designed to inform mother’s to be and mothers alike on the best ways to save money on nappies and wipes to cut down a significant burden on the family budget.

Saving Money on Nappies and Wipes

Here is my list of tips to save on nappies;

1. If you use Huggies Baby Wipes - remember to rip them in half. Half of a wipe is much easier for you to manoeuvre on your bub and will also make them stretch twice as long!
2. Use old towels and cut them up so that they are the sized of a small hand washer. This allows you to re-use and easily carry with you in a wet zip locked bag.
3. Use face washers. Buy only blue or purple (or whatever colour you want thats unique) so you know that they are specifically used for cleaning up the bub’s bot.
4. If your bub is not suceptable to nappy rash, try using the expensive huggies at night to ensure they stay dry and using the cheaper no frills brands during the day.
5. If you use disposable nappies - buy in bulk when the sales are on, it really adds up to a huge saving come a month later.
6. Use old fashioned nappies when at home and only use disposable when you get home.
7. Buy seconds nappies from Toys’r'us that are in damaged boxes as they tend to be perfect inside.

Where to buy Discounted Nappies

Keep an eye out for specials at BIGW, Target, Toys’R'Us and Kmart - these tend to be the best places to buy cheap nappies and discounted 2nds.
