On average, a newborn goes through approximately 10 diapers a day. When you multiply this number by two or three years, it adds up to hundreds (even thousands) of dollars worth of diapers per child. That being said, I have good news! There are several ways to get free diapers for your baby. Consider the following options.
Have a Diaper Party
A diaper party is traditionally a baby shower of sorts for a father-to-be. Guests are asked to gift the host whatever brand and size diapers they choose. It’s a good way to stock up on diapers in multiple sizes. This isn’t just for the father-to-be, either. This is a great way to shower the mom-to-be, also!
Going to a diaper party? A diaper cake is the perfect gift to give! You can make them yourself or buy them pre-made with so many colors and themes! It’s sure to be a hit!
National Diaper Bank Network
The National Diaper Bank Network aims to help low-income parents keep their children clean and dry. At this time, NDBN has distributed more than 98 MILLION diapers through hundreds of local chapters nationwide. Visit the website for more information.
Contact Diaper Companies
Thanks to the convenience of email, it’s super simple to contact diaper companies to request free or high-value diaper coupons. Why are they willing to honor your request? It’s simple. These companies rake in millions due to brand loyalty. In theory, once parents decide on a brand, chances are they’ll stick with it until their child is potty trained.
Pampers, Luvs, Huggies, and Goodnights give diaper coupons and other goodies to those who register on their sites. It’s definitely worth the little time it takes to do this. Many also have rewards clubs to earn points for every purchase, which can be used to stretch your savings even further.
Coupons
Sometimes you can run across some valuable, high-dollar coupons for diapers. If you can catch some of those diapers on deep clearance and stack those manufacturer coupons with a store coupon, you might luck up on some free (or super cheap) diapers.
These are just a few ways to obtain free diapers. You probably won’t acquire enough of them to cover the whole time you need them. But every diaper you get for free means one less you have to pay for, and there’s certainly nothing wrong with that!
