    CAn I ask for some advice on nappies?

    I was looking for different nappies my 2 year old LO decided it would be fun to copy daddy on the weekend and we have had 8 wees in the toilet hee hee hee so sad that i get so excited

    In any case thought i might need some pull ups now. Boots ones are on offer any idea if they are any good?

    Should I get the little walkers ones which are some where between a nappy and pants or should i go for the pull up which are like pants and are thin?

    or should i go for the reusable ones from boots?
    I did use reusable nappies quite a bit


    decisions decisions decisions

    My LO has major allergies to any Huggies Nappies or Pull Up's, I have found Boots own to be just as good as Pampers but the best I have found (and one of the cheapest) is Lidl's own at £3.59 for 20 they are fab HTH x

    I went to Boots this morning after the school run and missed my delivery of my sale order :eek: . But at least Im getting it I was worried that it wouldnt appear at all. Anyway in Boots Musselburgh they have loads of reduced herbal essences shampoo, 88p conditioners, £1.47 shampoos but still a bargain with 100pts each back.
    Finally, I can see you crystal clear

    Hi :hello:

    I think everyone has their personal preference. I tried various Huggies and Pampers styles but have no experience of the Boots ones. My favs are Pampers easy up pants. DS1 was able to pull these up and down on his own and would last well, worn all day. We used these at night also and never leaked. I suspect they were more expensive than Huggies and you only get double PC points instead of the triple points you get with Huggies.

    Have you thought about just trying pants? The problem with pull ups (and other similar products) is that they just feel like a nappy so the toddler forgets he is not in nappies. Let your lad run around in pants. If you have had that much success over the weekend it sounds like he is more than ready for the big boy step! It will only take one or two accidents running down the leg to remind him. Good luck.

    I used to use pampers disposable changing mats (like the bed mats but smaller) folded up under my kids in the carseat and buggy to help in case of accidents.

    can anyone tell me if all items with the old '3 for 2' green labels on are now 75% off in boots?

    I recently asked an SA if the baby stuff with said label on was in the sale and he said that it wasn't.

    Seems wrong?

    scans as Mango Delirium, was 12.71, now 3.17.

    Is this nice? I picked one up on Weds, then put it back, as I have never tried it, and couldn't find a tester either. What kind of scent is it - fruity, flowery, what? I don't like overpowering strong scents, love fruity ones, but not sweet.

    That sounds promising, although i'm totally confused by Boots , I've been getting the generic error every time I try and check out, however today when i tried , everything in my basket (that had been reduced by 75%) was now showing as full price :confused: .

    In the meantime, now I can't even log on. CS has just given me a new password, and I still can't log on. When I tried to put something in my basket, I got the dreaded 'generic error'. Help!

    I'm getting the same :eek: I've had trouble logging in over the past couple of days but haven't tried adding anything to my basket. I'd better get this sorted before the sale comes back on line :mad:
