I am going to be taking care of my 5 month old nephew while my sister and her husband get back on their feet. Meaning he is going to be living with us. It has been 7 years since I have had to buy formula and diapers and was wondering what the average costs of both are and where I can find the best deals. I live in Beaverton, OR we do not have a Wal-mart.  We have K-mart, Target, CostCo, Wal-greens, Babies R Us, Rite-Aid, Albertson's, Safeway, Winn-co. I would appreciate any kind of help I can get.

Thanks in advance,

Tricia

small cans of formula all the way to large  range from 13-30.00.  the baby is probably wearing size 1 diapers and they are a little cheaper for the smaller sizes.  but a box of pampers is right at 20.00 and that is for about 60-70 diapers.  i love the huggies natural fit diapers and if you join their club to get their monthly newsletter they will send you useful coupons every month for diapers and wipes.  so i go for huggies plus they absorb better.  there is such a wide variety of bottles so it just depends on what you want to get.  some can be as little as 1.00 a piece.  walgreens sometimes has deals on diapers so watch their sales papers.  otherwise walgreens and rite aid are a little more expensive.  i don't have a walmart in my town either but it is worth it for me to drive to either of the 3 surrounding counties to go there and purchase items.  the ingles supermarket in my community has been a great help as well.  recently i was told about this warehouse in a neighboring county that has diapers and wipes at a steal.  i went there the other day and got a box of 832 wipes for 11.00.  this was great because i normally pay 7-8.00 for 208 wipes.  they did not have my son's diaper size that particular day but a co worker of mine got 1000 diapers for her son for 19.00 and you normally only get about 60-70 for that price.  needless to say i will be checking there first from now on.
