Topic: Nappies for Less / Baby Online - Dryups? Posted: 05 April 2009 at 1:09pm |
Does anyone use 'nappies for less' nappies? If so, which brand do you use and how do you find them?
It seems like Dryups are a good price. All I really want is nappies that work well that don't cost the earth. Would love to hear people's experiences before I go buying a whole box. I know I can get samples but want to make it as less complicated as possible.
TIA

Yip iv used nappies for less nappies. When we lived in Tauranga i always bought my nappies from the NFL shop there. I used huggies for Bays first year while i searched for a nappy that did a huggies job at half the price! anyway i bought bulk packs from NFL, they were green with frogs on them and i dont think they had a name but they were GREAT!!!!!!!!
I now use home brand nappies which are only $4.60 (or $4.80?) from countdown and they are awsome!!!!!!!! they work exactly the same as huggies and i was told not long ago that they are made by huggies but are cheaply packaged! i couldnt recomend them enough! they are great

I have used the dryups (I buy them online from their store - www.babyonline.co.nz ) Have found them great! I too have found the himebrand ones good. Seems senseless paying so much money on nappies like treasures when perfectly good ones cheaper!

Hello,
There's a Nappies for Less just down the road from our place. I pay $24 and get 72 nappies they don't even come in a box, just wrapped in plastic. They are great, I have never ever had any leaks with Cooper in those nappies.
Oh and they are the Dryups too.

I second the home brand nappies they are great!. I tried those Dryups, the $24 for 72, and didn't like them. We found they leaked heaps and Dominic started getting really bad nappy rashes. But my best friend uses them and loves them, I guess it just depends on the size and shape of your baby. The best thing about NPL is that you can open the pack use 2 and if you don't like them they will accept the pack back and charge you like $2 for the nappies you did use.

I use the dryups (not the Aussie ones) and they are great, I've found them to be the best nappy that I have used, very absorbent, but easier to put on than a Huggie as they aren't so 'tight'. I have used them for about 15 months.

McKayla uses the dryup pull ups and they are really great. Had only 2 leaks before and that was due to this one being sick and urinating more. Like loads more. I dont think any nappy would have contained it.
