But it gets old pretty fast (again my calc is if you want to be the most aggressive you'll need to put away $1,600/mo. from the hospital ride home, through age 22, to provide for college for a baby born in 2013--it's now 2016 so the number is even higher--anything spent takes away from that).
We used Pampers for swim diapers as they were all that Walmart had. And it's amazing how Walmart spanks Bezos on these items, you'd think it'd be the other way around....
The truth about diapers is the fit, i.e. leakage, nobody sees the brand name on a baby. If you can get good results with < Pampers/Huggies you'll really be saving some $$$$.

I just checked the Costco website and the Huggies are actually more expensive. We did the research and found there to be no real price difference while the difference in quality was noticeable.
