Costco £14 off Huggies nappies this week

Hi, hoping someone can help with this - Costco have a current Passport offer where if you buy 2 boxes of Huggies you save £14. Each box has 210 of size 3 nappies, or 186 of size 4. Maximum 10 deals per customer.

What I need to know is - how much is each box before discount? My nearest Costco is a 2 hour round trip away, and the thought of getting my 2 month old baby plus siblings (half term!) all the way there only to find that Tesco's £9 a box offer on Pampers matches it would probably have me and them in tears! The calculation I need to do is whether the saving over 20 boxes with the 10 x £14 discount is more than the £5-£10 in fuel to get there.

If any of you lovely moneysavers can help, i'd be awfully grateful! :A

Blimey Roses, that's very impressive! Thank you very much for such a quick response.

So that means (£36-14= £22) for 420 nappies, or 5.2p each.

This compares with tesco's current offer of £9 for 88 size 4 pampers - the smallest in offer - at 10.2p each.

The saving for 10 deals is 4200 x 5p or £210 - that should cover my fuel!

What's more frightening is the spend on nappies when totalled up like that. I do use re-usables when possible too, but it's not practical to do this 100%.

Thanks again, Norm

I actually took the photo two weeks ago for my brother in law as his wife is pregnant with their first child

The Costco offer is actually pretty good, it's almost buy one get one free if they are giving £14 off.
