Re: CPT: brand of diaper
Be careful on how many diapers you stock up on though since you wont really know how many of each size you need. DD was in newborn for a month, but DS was out of them before a week was up and probably could have used size one from the get go. Same was true of when they switched to size 2 and 3....
.
I never used NB diapers and b was 5lb9oz at his smallest. The hospital used size one on all babies (although I'm sure they had smaller sizes for premies). I figured, if it was good enough for the hospital, it is good enough for me.

Once she was out of size one we switched to Luvs which worked well until she started moving around at like 8 months or so because they leaked. So we switched back to Huggies.
Now we use Huggies snug and dry. They are the most cost effective, DD doesn't have a reaction to them, and they don't leak with her as a squirmy toddler.
Also, we don't have a target nearby so we can't use up&up regularly. We did get some as gifts (we got like 8 boxes and 5 plastic packs of diapers as gifts) and they were okay.
Oh and when we realized what we would need we took all those crazy amounts of diapers (except one box/pack of each size) to Walmart and they took them all with no receipt and gave us a gift card with the money on it and we used that card to buy diapers with for a while!

I think you just have to try different kinds until you find what works.

I'm going to take a look and if target is cheaper than Costco, I'm making the switch!

When you join Amazon Prime, you don't pay shipping. It's free two day shipping on anything that is fulfilled by Amazon. It's $79 per year to join and then you can join Amazon mom for free and do subscribe and save to save an additional 20% off baby items and off other items if you have more than 5 items per month. If you have less than 5, you still get the 20% for baby stuff but I believe only 5% or something like that on the other items you have for the month.
We use it for diapers, wipes, diaper genie refill bags, breastmilk storage bags, prenatal vitamins, and then things like lotions or whatnot. You can even do things like tp or whatever else on subscribe and save.
And I don't know how it compares exactly, but this month my 144 Pampers Swaddlers sensitive were regularly $47.19 at Amazon, with my subscribe and save I got $9.44 off, then they had a coupon I clipped (you need to check occassionally for these, but once you clip them it will save it and apply it to your next order) for an additional $2.50 off, so my total before tax was $35.25 and $38.60 after tax. It came to about $.24 per diaper. The regular swaddlers are a bit cheaper and there's obviously other brands as well.
I love that they are delivered right to my door and I don't need to worry about going out to get them. You set the frequency you want them delivered as well (so once a month, once every 3 mo, etc...)
The $79 is worth it for us for the amount of stuff we buy from Amazon and the free shipping alone.

@ wiggyslilsis -
I just checked and the subscribe and save price for size 3 Huggies Snug and Dry is $36.38 for 222 diapers, plus there's a $2 coupon to clip right now so it's be $34.38 before tax or about $.15 per diaper. From what I can see, Wal-Mart is $.17 per diaper right now. Of course this doesn't take into account the initial $79 fee to join, but you probably spend that in gas over the year anyways.

Haha - love it. Delilah even knows when she sees Zack's diaper that the blue line means he needs to be changed and tells us.

We find ourselves getting so much from there because we'll forget something at the store and don't feel like going back out and be like, well we can just get it from Amazon and it will be here in 2 days. Better than dragging both kids out again. And often times cheaper.
