Yeah I know a lot of people that use Homebrand during the day and huggies at night. I've contemplated getting Homebrand to trial them, but I'm scared of bub getting nappy rash, we've come 13 months without it so far *touch wood*

I dont' like any of the popular brands, I prefer the generic ones I get from Nappies for Less. I've never had a leak of either variety from Cooper. No fancy packaging, they come in a clear plastic wrap and are cheap as chips.
BUT I will say when we were in Birthcare I acquired some for home, and was shocked at how much Huggies had improved from where we tried them out 5 years ago with Nyah.

A friend reccomended homebrand to me and i was like yea right im not putting my son in that crap! but next time i was at the supermarket i decided to try them as they are only $5 per pack and they are great!! definatly coundnt use them for over night though, they would over fill. I still feel embarresed putting them in the trolly thou hahaha people must think we are soo stingie

Pippa which supermarket do you get Homebrand from? I can't recall seeing them at Woolies in Papakura...
PS. We went to Botanic Gardens on Wednesday morning and didn't see you there, but went for a walk ourselves to the Duck pond ...Lucas LOVES watching the ducks and geese

I agree with the homebrand nappies. They are great but one thing I didnt like about them is that they dont have any elastic stretchy bit at the back. Budget nappies from Pak n Save are really good too although their grip tabs are old skool (I can live with that though). Treasures were never good for us either.
