josh went up the huggies nappies sizes very quickly i think he was out of newborn after the first week. Weights are just a guideline but i found age had a bit to do with it as well as i moved josh up if he would start wetting through them or if they seemed too small he has now been in the walker ones since he was about 9 or 10mths but in all other nappies he is in junior so its not just a huggies issue with sizing.]]> Mon, 28 Sep 2009 10:30:10 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=28982&PID=788603&title=buying-nappies-online-vs-in-store#788603 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=28982&PID=788373&title=buying-nappies-online-vs-in-store#788373 Author: jahvaan

the NB huggies are a bit disappointing, says up to 5kg, my girl is 3 weeks old and just over 3kg and the nappies are already getting a bit small. we are getting the next size up in huggies but i might purchase a sample pack of dryups for $3.95 to check sizes and quality from babyonline]]> Sun, 27 Sep 2009 22:27:31 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=28982&PID=788372&title=buying-nappies-online-vs-in-store#788372 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=28982&PID=788055&title=buying-nappies-online-vs-in-store#788055 Author: catisla

I second Lilfatty with the Huggies. I get them from whichever supermarket has them on special, and if it is a really good offer (and a pay week!) i stock up on as many as poss. Usually always either Woolworths of New World have a good offer on.

I looked at the websites, but by the time I have paid for postage, it works out cheaper to get them on offer at the supermarket.]]> Sun, 27 Sep 2009 18:53:11 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=28982&PID=788055&title=buying-nappies-online-vs-in-store#788055 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=28982&PID=788048&title=buying-nappies-online-vs-in-store#788048 Author: lilfatty

We only buy huggies and get them from wherever is the cheapest place that week. The warehouse, foodtown, pak n save, online .. doesnt really matter to me, I just check them all (by looking online or phoning) and then get them from that place.

Online shops have loyalty rewards too, so that helps in the long run.

I usually use babies.co.nz, because they have free shipping to my place and have a rewards system (and they seem to be the same price as the other couple of online nappy retailers)]]> Sun, 27 Sep 2009 18:48:32 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=28982&PID=788048&title=buying-nappies-online-vs-in-store#788048 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=28982&PID=788042&title=buying-nappies-online-vs-in-store#788042 Author: WRXnKids

we get huggies and i have brought from nappiesdirect.co.nz (excellent service) when they had a special on - $200 and i got 2 large boxes of nappies (larger than in the stores) plus 2 large bags of wipes and 2 mid size bags of wipes which lasted for ages.

It is cheaper tho (by the time you factor postage) to get huggies from the warehouse when they have them on special for $36 a box which is the cheapest ive found them for. They have the special pretty often as well.

If im having a cheap week i buy homebrand if huggies arent on special and there is nothing wrong with them i just prefer the huggies (and im a barcode collector).]]> Sun, 27 Sep 2009 18:42:39 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=28982&PID=788042&title=buying-nappies-online-vs-in-store#788042 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=28982&PID=787851&title=buying-nappies-online-vs-in-store#787851 Author: jahvaan

yeah dryups have been mentioned a bit by various people. ive also been told homebrand are fab as well but they dont do newborn or the next size up from what i can see. my mum is buying the next size up from NB in the huggies range, the big box, but for after that i want to find something that are good qaulity but affordable.]]> Sun, 27 Sep 2009 15:26:57 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=28982&PID=787851&title=buying-nappies-online-vs-in-store#787851 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=28982&PID=787299&title=buying-nappies-online-vs-in-store#787299 Author: Guests

I've been recommended Nappies Direct by a couple of different friends. They said they went for huggies for a newborn but then cheaper brands after that.

I think they buy online as it's cheaper, and maybe you can get more variety of brands?]]> Sat, 26 Sep 2009 12:09:47 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=28982&PID=787122&title=buying-nappies-online-vs-in-store#787122 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=28982&PID=787106&title=buying-nappies-online-vs-in-store#787106 Author: jahvaan

i'm assuming you are talking about disposables... babies online and nappies direct are two of the bigger ones i know about. i think baby online is who i used with my first child. most of them will send you out samples if you request too so you can check them out first. and they usually have a cost per nappy comparison online too.]]> Fri, 25 Sep 2009 14:56:41 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=28982&PID=786412&title=buying-nappies-online-vs-in-store#786412 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=28982&PID=786394&title=buying-nappies-online-vs-in-store#786394 Author: Joscia

Hi - I was the same - terribly confused about all the different types!

I found the Snazzipants website great - loads of info. If you're in Auckland the shop is worth a visit too - they're really helpful and you can have a proper look at / play with all the different types of nappies.

I think to get a pic under your name you go into your profile (top right of screen - above 'New Topic') and change your Avatar in there.

HTH!

im bloody confused when it comes to nappies, everyone swears by a different brand, different store etc. when i had my son in nappies 2000-2002 there was a bit of a range but nothing like today.

does anhyone buy nappies online, and if so which website and for how much? and how mnay haps do you get for your buck and why do you buy online and not in store? if i can find a good deal i will buy online, so looking for feedback, thanks

p.s OT - how do i get a little pic under my name, not the fancy signatures but the other little pic, cheers ]]> Fri, 25 Sep 2009 14:32:54 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=28982&PID=786374&title=buying-nappies-online-vs-in-store#786374
