I pay about $8.40 a pack (I’ve seen them for as much as $16.50 in health food stores in my area.)

Beside having the lowest price,

the service is quite convenient since the bulky diapers are delivered to your house. Shipping is free. What’s more, when you subscribe to get the diapers automatically delivered at regular intervals, Amazon will take an additional 20%, every time.


For example, I buy the stage 5 diapers, which list at $50 for four 30-count packs ($12.50 a pack). If you just buy it once, the store charges $42 ($10 a pack) and shipping is free. If you subscribe, as I do, to get say, 4 packs every month (you can choose the interval), the price goes down to $33.60 ($8.40 a pack).

Don’t forget the wipes! With a subscription, the Seventh Gen brand come to $2.30 a pack!

This has been proven to be an incredible convenience for us because we could only find these diapers at certain stores. Whole Foods carries them and often has coupons if you buy two packs. But we recently moved and now don’t have a WF market near us. The smaller healthfood stores charge a fortune for them.

I prefer the SG diapers because they are chlorine free. I find other diapers to have ‘chemical’ smells, especially once they are peed in. I don’t think the SG ones are bulky, and I haven’t had problems with leaks since the company redesigned the diapers last year. I did try the Tushies diapers as well because they are chlorine free and they don’t use any type of gel to absorb pee. But I found them to be bulky and they leaked all the time.

We also tried the G-diapers. While I like the idea of these flushable diapers, in practice it took a few more steps than regular diapers and so I found myself not using them, unfortunately. They are a bit expensive too.

Amazon gives the same discounts for other diaper brands too, such as Huggies. The grocery store even offers a small but growing selection of natural foods for subscription.

Have you found a diaper that works well and is mindful of chemicals and the environment?

Let me know!

Although the site says clothes for boys, I see clothes for girls there too. Also, after corresponding with Cody (the owner) several times about items and fit, I learned that he has much more stock than what’s posted online. So he is happy to personally help you find exactly what you are looking for and will send you pictures/description and measurements.
