Reminder: today is the LAST day to use the 20% off promo code from August magazines!!
Hopefully by now you have already stocked up on diapers and wipes thank to the amazing Amazon sale. The current offer is for name brand diapers (and wipes) at 30% off. You also get FREE 2 day shipping.
So far I have purchased Luvs diapers (@ 9 cents/each), Huggies diapers (@ 14 cents/each) and Pampers wipes (@ 2 cents/each).
This sale even include Huggies Overnights, which you can pick up for as low as 2 cents EACH for a 56 ct box when you use both discounts below.
Here’s what you want to do:
1) Head to Amazon and find the brand and size that you prefer. You must choose a product sold BY Amazon (no 3rd party sellers).
2) On the product page, choose the Subscribe and Save option to save 30% PLUS get FREE 2 Day Shipping. Note: You may cancel this subscription at absolutely ANY TIME after your order ships. Simply head to the “My Account” section on Amazon and cancel.
3) Maximize the savings: If you have access to the August or September issues of Parents or Parenting: The Early Years Magazines there is a 20% off unique promo code inside. YOU MAY STACK THIS COUPON WITH THE 30% off subscribe and save discount! (That’s what I did.)
4) SUPER MAXIMIZE THE SAVINGS: Baby Cheapskate has confirmed that you can STACK the coupon codes from the August magazine issues with September issue coupon codes! You can stack up to 3 codes!
Here’s what the coupon looks like:
This is truly a stock up sale- don’t miss it!
[...] I have always enjoyed my subscription to Parents Magazine- but the past two issues have been SPECTACULAR as they included the coveted 20% off diapers coupon code. [...]
I get Parents and Parenting and was able to use 3 different 20% off codes. I bought 3 cases of size 4 Luvs (180 ct each) and was still only able to get them to 11 cents each. I am in WA state so I have to pay tax. Am I calculating wrong? My total for 520 diapers was $58.37. I have 9 month old twins so we will be through these in no time.
Are you able to order more than one item per transactions? I was trying to get some size 5 overnights for my 3 year old, but I couldn’t get it to add to the same transaction and get my coupons to apply to both items.
Are you making sure that you choose the Subscribe and Save option (underneath the regular “add to cart” button)? That’s crucial. I think you can order multiples of the same item, but not sure about several different items. Your price definitely sounds a little high for 3 codes.. I was able to get the same case of Luvs for I think 9 cents and I only used one code.
you can only use the codes on one box of diapers. If you add more than one you still only get the discount on one box.
You can stack the codes- BUT- you must have a code from the August issue WITH a code from the Sept issue. One starts with an S, the other with a W. I’ve been reading that others have had luck with this.
I did suscribe and save. My total price before discounts was $106.99. They removed $31.99 for the 30% off and then 3 different line items at $7.11 each. Add back $5.07 for tax. It looks right. I guess it’s the stinky tax. Oh and I just realized I bought 540 diapers, not 520. It still works out to almost 11 cents each. It would be almost 10 if I didn’t have to pay the tax.
I wonder if my starting price per box is different from yours. Perhaps they jack up the price a little based on location. For Luvs Ultra Leakguard Stretch Diapers, size 4, 180 ct, my list price was $35.54 before discounts. I wouldn’t be surprised if they haven’t figured out a way to change the prices based on location/ip address. Oh well. It’s still a great deal. Thanks for the info about stacking the coupons!!
Okay- I think you’re right. And I wouldn’t be surprised if we started out with different original prices. Prices on Amazon tend to change faster than the weather.
Sounds like you still got a great deal despite the tax. Enjoy!
If any of your readers have the magazines/codes, and are NOT using them, I’d love if they could pass them on! My email is kymber33@gmail.com
Thanks!
When you use the subscribe and save does the diapers they send the next month have the same savings as the first shipment?
Thanks, Rosalie
I *think* the next shipment would have the 30% off discount, but probably not the coupon code from the magazines discount.
I’m not sure though- I have always canceled them right away.
Thanks for the reminder, I just saw my 20% off in my Parent’s magazine. I was not able to use on wipes but I was able to use it on EZ-Ups so got a great deal ($22.49 dropped to $11.24 after promotions). Thanks again!
[...] similar to the insane diapers and wipes sale happening at Amazon, you can also save BIG on Earth’s Best Baby [...]
I am so happy that my husband saw your add in the Clipper magazine!!! I’ve been trying to start couponing now that we are a family of 4 on one income (starting this week!). I became a FB fan so I get to skim your posts all the time and I saw this deal. I had two $5 amazon gift codes that I earned through Swagbucks, so I took advantage of the deal plus the codes and got a case of Pampers Cruisers for $17.82, which I believe is about $0.11 per diaper – much better than the Babies R Us price of $0.26 per diaper! Thanks so much!!!
That is really great! So glad to have you!
Thank you for this reminder! I found my Aug & Sept issues of parents and was able to stack both codes to get a case of Luvs diapers for $10.66. Then I added in a $5 Amazon GC I earned from Swagbucks, so I paid $5.66 OOP for 204 diapers! WOO HOO! That is less than $.03 per diaper!
That’s phenomenal- super cheap diapers are so exciting!!
Sweet mother, nothing like waiting till the last minute, 11:16PM on 8/31! Just “subscribed” to 2 boxes of size 5 Luvs for the 30% discount, plus stacked both the Aug & Sep coupons from Parents. And that was on the heels of just finishing my free Picaboo book. PHEW! Thanks so much for blogging all these deals…you help me save a lot of dough and I REALLY appreciate it!
LOL! Awesome!!
Does anyone know how to add the coupon to an existing subscription to Amazon. My next shipment is due to ship on September 23 and I have a September coupon I would like to use. Can I apply the 20% off coupon to my next order?
I don’t think you can add the coupon to the existing subscription.. but perhaps you can cancel the subscription and then add it again, as a new one?
[...] save, but Amazon Moms get an extra 15% discount for a total of 30% off! (So in other words, the insane diaper sale? Yeah, you’ll get it [...]
I have an “S” code from Sept’s Parenting mag and a “W” code from Sept’s Parents mag. It accepted my “s” code but when I entered my “w” code, it says:
We’re sorry, but the promotional code you entered cannot be applied to this purchase. Please refer to your promotional coupon for information about item or store restrictions.
Can I not use a code from each mag?
I’m not sure- I know that you can use an August code and a September code- and likewise I thought you could use one S code and one W code. The August codes let you use them on diapers and wipes, the September code says diapers only. Maybe contact Amazon and see what’s up?
where are the codes in the magazine? I have the magazines in front of me.
This post is from August 2010. Codes are no longer valid- they were in the August 2010 issue and expired 8/30/10.
