    We used to use Costco own brand (Kirkland) and they were absolutely fine.
    And a lot cheaper
    We all evolve - get on with it

    Should have but they often have them laid on the table just inside the door :)

    Kirkland might work out cheaper per nappy but I prefer Huggies and pampers :) Horses for courses :)

    Checked the price of Huggies boxes and they are nearer £19 than £15 I'm afraid - that makes the maths something like:
    156x2=312
    £38-£14=£24
    24/312=0.076 per nappy I think it was £19 at least... anyway still miles cheaper than Boots :) I'm going there tomorrow to get plenty of the 4+ and 5s if I can :) I have enough 4s I think ;) hehehe boots glitch and last Costco promotion should see us through ;)

    I wouldnt touch the Costco own brand Kirkland nappies with a bargepole, they smelt and were not good quality.

    Previously I have always used Pampers but I bought some Sainsburys own brand and never gone back, I buy in bulk at the 1/3rd off event to last me till the next one as they are every 3 months now :)

    I dont know if it works out buying the branded ones at Costco though

    update:

    Prices for COSTCO (huggies Super Dry)

    Size 3 are 20.49 per box and contain 192 nappies so (2*20.49-14 / 348) 7p per nappy

    Size 4 are 20.49 per box and contain 168 nappies so (2*20.49-14 / 336) 8p per nappy

    looking at mysupermarket the cheapest for huggies Super Dry size 3 is 7.8p and size 4 is 9.2p
