Pampers active fit in baby dry packs!

Yep,

Apparently there is a shortage of baby dry nappies and so in order to fill shelves, pampers have put active fit in the baby dry packets. I bought 2 for £16 big packs (size 5) from Tesco in Blackpool and they are definitely not baby dry. I rang Pampers who explained that they have put the superior ones in because of the shortage but they would, as a goodwill gesture, also send me some money off coupons...

I stood looking at the nappies and the packet for ages, checking I wasn't just really thick! THe woman said she was wondering when someone would ring in....hmmmm why do I doubt that I was the only one to ring up???

Worth checking or buying and opening and then buying more! if you're a baby dry user anyway (or rather, your children are!)

    Unfortunately not, only really good if you're already a baby dry buyer so it doesn't matter if they're not the active fit.
