I've been using Target diapers for about a month and they totally rock rr
I was at Target with some good coupons for Huggies and Pampers, but then I saw the Target brand would be almost 1/2 the price even w/ the coupons. I figured for $10 I could try them out...they are great.
We use a big ole Pampers Baby Dry for nighttime, but use Target all day long without any incidents.

Anyone tried any other store brands they could recommend? My friend did not have good luck with the BJ's brand diapers.

Thanks for the tip. I usually use cloth, but on trips I use disposables and I always forget which kind I like. When we when to the beach last week I got some from Wal-mart. I don't know if I put it on wrong or what but I had to clean big boy (he is 2) shit of of the inside of his pants leg in it was gross! Sick Wal-mart diapers suck. Twisted Evil

I used the Target ones some. It seems like they're pretty similar to the Kroger ones, which I used a lot because they were so cheap. I also loved the White Cloud dipes from Walmart for a while. But I ended up going to Luvs for the stretchiness, even though they stink like fake baby scent. Taking them out of the package and putting them in the stacker seemed to air out some of the stink, though.

Be careful though. At the Target down the street, the Target brand is the exact same price per diaper as the Luvs and Luvs rock much harder headbang , IMHO.

Luvs work well, but I agree w/ Scout...they stink! They are way too perfume-y for my taste. They don't need to add fake baby scent...babies already smell delicious. Unless it's right after a poo or a major spit up session Sick If Luvs didn't have that smell I would have kept using them since they worked well and Blues Clues is just so darn cute.

I use Huggies because that's what they have at Sam's club. Per diaper, they are by FAR the cheapest. Even with coupons. I've gone around with my calculator, I know.

Right now I am using Kroger brand diapers during the day for Kate and Molly and Pampers swaddlers/cruisers at night and naptimes. I like the feel of the pampers much better and they fit better too but the Kroger brand is so much cheaper, I can't pass it up!

I used to love Huggies with Calvin, but with Somerset they seemed to get super squishy as soon as she peed one time.

Huggies do not fit my kids, I don't know why, but they don't and the thin dialpers don't work with Graham, he pees right through 'em.

I LOVE Huggies night time diapers though. They are best invention ever and I don't know why Target doesn't carry them. I have to go to Walgreens or one of our indy grocery stores to get them, but they rock my world! For special needs kids that pee excessively, I don't know what I would have done w/o 'em.

Well, it seems I have a perpetual sinus infection, so it doesn't affect me, and I put them on a shelf right away and don't notice the smell too much.

Sorry for serial posting. You know, I think they've changed 'em. I used them with Holden and they were great, but with Graham, they didn't hold up as well, but Graham is an excessive pee'er.

I don't know, I don't have a problem. Liz has the chubster legs, so they fit fine, and I swear, she's been in the same diaper overnight and then to midmorning (sometimes mornings are super busy here) and still haven't leaked. There have been times when they HAVE leaked, but that's to be expected with that long in a diaper (usually she goes from 9:30pm to about 9am, but there have been times--with another kid home sick or something, when it's gone until like 11 before I remember she needs to be changed. Fed, always, changed--eh--sometimes slips my mind in the morning).

I used Huggies at first but they didn't seem to fit Michael right either. He's got a loooong torso though. I mean he's only about 14 pounds but I'm going to have to move him up to a bigger size onsie b/c I can't snap them at the crotch anymore! I'm afraid the poor little guy will be built like me w/ a long torso, stubby legs and a big old butt Razz I was hoping he'd be tall and thin like his dad...
