Huggies wipes £1 in boots

  • I think the point is that everyone should get the newborn starter packs as they pay for themselves - it's about repeating the formula...

    1. Buy a starter pack for £3 get 27 nappies and a pack of pure wipes + vouchers (£2 off newborn nappies, £1 off Pure wipes, £2 off little swimmers).

    2. Use the £2 off newborn voucher (from first starter pack) on the 2nd starter pack to get it for £1, hence £1 for 27 nappies and a pack of pure wipes + vouchers. Use the £1 voucher on the £1 offer Pure wipes to get them for free.

    3. Each round you get for £1, 27 nappies and 2 packs of Pure wipes (one in box, one for £1 - £1 voucher so free) and baby hat and a £2 off newborn swimmers left over.

    Suddenly £2.49 for 3 packs of Pure wipes doesn't look great... (or once you've got 3 packs, get paid 51p by using 3 vouchers against the Morrisons purchase :) )

    I've heard it is possible to swap the newborn nappies for a bigger size, I only need size 2 so think still classes as newborn but how do you exchange them?

  • Apparently Tesco are very good for swapping without the receipt, so just take them in (in a Tesco bag) and try your luck!

    I have no idea, I'm probably going to have too many size 1's but was planning on donating to a womens refuge or something.

    The vouchers can be used on size 2 and 3 newborn aswell, i got two big boxes from asda for £10 using two of the £2 off vouchers, and those come with £2 off Huggies natural vouchers.

    Did anyone else's Boots boxes not come with a wipes voucher? I got three in one store and none had them but picked up another in a differeny store and it did :-/

    the swimmers starter packs are on offer boots at the moment too for 2.67

    includes 6 small swim nappies and a hooded towel

    so all in all for 1.67 u get a bag of nappies, pack of wipes, hat, swim nappies, and a toweling robe plus the vouchers to start all over again i have 10 starter kits now and the vouchers to get the swim kits

    if boots say they cant use the coupons on the kits then argue the fact u got the vouchers on the kits in the first place iyswim

    :D sign up to asda mother and baby club u can then print 2 coupons for 2 free newborn starter kits in asda they are on offer at the moment for £3 if u go thru ss u should be able to get £2 off your shopping per box as the coupons are worth £5 (thats if the sa dont notice)

    inside the box is vouchers for £2 off newborn nappies £2 off swimmers and £1 off huggies wipes

    use these vouchers to buy another pack of newborn starter and a pack of huggies wipes only costing u a £1 or 50p depending on where u buy u can then use the £2 voucher for the swimmer pack costing 67p from boots

    i prefer to buy mine from asda as the boxes in boots dont seem to have the wipes voucher in them

    so each box has vouchers inside which means u can round and round purchasing more and more boxes receiving more vouchers each set will cost 1.67 altogether :T

    hope i explained it ok lol

    No but if u go back in to "change" ur details (don't need to change anything) u can reprint another 2 vouchers by now, and prob again in 3 months time just in time for the next event et repete over and over again!!!
  • I don't think I'll be able to sign up for a starter pack - my son is 13! He is disabled and double incontinence is just one of his disabilities, so although the starter pack does make it cheaper for those who can get one, some of us are not in that position.

    Thanks for the explanation though.

    I'm not sure about exchanging but I noticed Sainsburys have a third off newborn size 2, it was around £3.xx for a pack of 30-something (I think 34?) and you can use your voucher there too. Sorry the details aren't more specific. HTH.
