Save money on Amazon, Diapers.com and Soap.com!

As previously mentioned, we are expecting a new baby this summer. Now that my kids are older, diapers and formula are a distant memory, but as I browse the baby aisles, the expense of caring for a baby seems to be coming back to me.

However, there are so many new options for saving money on baby (and home) products that I never had access to before! I recently signed up for Amazon Mom which saves you an additional 30% on items you Subscribe and Save to, as well as free two day shipping. I never would have considered ordering diapers online, but after combining some coupon codes I found in my Parents magazine, and my free American Baby magazine (you can get a free subscription by signing up for just about any baby deals online-- google it), I was able to discount my price so much that I got four cases of diapers for less than the cost of two, shipped straight to my door! Check it out (I got two each of the following orders):

Luvs Premium Stretch Diapers with Ultra Leakguards, Size 1 (8-14 Lbs), 264 Diapers
Item(s) Subtotal: $35.54
Shipping & Handling: $0.00

Munchkin Super Premium Diapers, Size Newborn Ultra (0-10 Pounds), 144-Count Box
Item(s) Subtotal: $29.11

That's an average of 6 cents per diaper. In order to get more coupons, I went ahead and subscribed to Parenting: Early Years on Amazon as well. A one-year subscription was $9.97, but right now they are offering 2 magazine subscriptions (select titles) for $15, so I went ahead and got Parenting: School Years, too! You won't find baby coupons in the second one, but I love magazines and will gladly read it for tips with my older children. Plus, I will get the cost of the magazines back in my coupon savings after one diaper or formula order, easily!

Another site for diaper discounts is Diapers.com. Along with the Amazon Mom coupons, I got a Diapers.com coupon code in my Parents magazine. The website was offering a deal for first-time customers which I used along with my code. I ordered two Giant Cases of Huggies diapers for $47 (reg. price for 1 box: $38). If you're planning to make an order on Diapers.com, please use the following promo code at checkout to get 30% cash back on diapers + 15% off everything else, and I will get a credit on my account!

ALSO, after placing your first order on Diapers.com, you can use the promo code 10BUCKSFREE right now at Soap.com (their sister site) to get an instant $10 credit toward your first purchase of $10 or more. I used this promotion to try out Rockin' Green detergent for only $3.85. (The code MRSJ5621 works on this site, too!)

There are many other sites and deals out there. Take some time to search the web for freebies, samples, coupons and promo codes, then mix and match them with your local/web store promotions and ad prices.
