Diapers alone for the first year can cost 00 or more.
It is tempting to buy a small package of diapers because it seems cheaper at first.
Newborns grow very fast, however, and if you buy too many 1s or 2s you may be left with diapers you can't use. You may find that you can use the store brand diapers as they get older but I have always tried them and gone back to name brand.
On average a Jumbo pack of diapers cost .00 for about 40 diapers. This is average for Pampers, Huggies, and LUVS. You are paying approximately .26 per diaper this way. This is the average cost for 40 diapers Size 3.
For size 5 you will get about 30 diapers for .37 each for Pampers and Huggies at .00 for a Jumbo pack.
LUVS size 5 Jumbo pack of 30 diapers is .28 (each diaper) at .49 per pack.
For Extra Large Packages, LUVS are cheaper running about a box for sizes 3,4, and 5.
LUVS Extra Large Boxes run just a few cents cheaper than Pampers about .18 - .24 cents each.
Pampers Extra Large Boxes are about a box about .21 - .28 cents each.
LUVS and Pampers give you about 30-40 more diapers than Huggies Extra Large box at about .23 - .29 each.
