I am trying very hard to buy my newborn diaper stash used. Based on Ian's size at birth, I don't expect newborn prefolds/covers to fit Little Girl for more than 6-8 weeks...tops. I've been checking diaperswappers several times a day for the prefolds I want. I just read on another board that they are hard to get used for a couple of reasons: 1. Everybody loves them so much they don't sell them, and 2. When somebody does sell them there are about 40 mamas trying to get to them. I've thought I was "first" trying to get a couple dozen, but the stinking site won't let me PM so I'm pretty sure I'm missing out by having to post on the thread. I'm getting frustrated. The only ones I seem to stand a chance at are the ones I complained about before--the used ones that cost as much or more than the new ones.
So, I wandered over to eBay. I am currently the top bidder for three newborn Thirsties covers at $15.50 (they are $11/each new--auction ends in 6 hours), and 12 GMD newborn prefolds plus two size small Swaddlebees prefolds at $11.50 (they are $21 for the GMD new...dont' know the price of the Swaddlebees--auction ends in 9 hours). I've been the leader for a couple of days, so hoping no one comes in and scoops these up! :)
Buying cloth diapers is fun. Buying them for a good price is much MORE fun. ;)
