Is it really cheaper to buy diapers on-line?

Lately, I see that some people have ordered from diapers.com or amazon.com.  Is this really cheaper than using coupons and going to target or BRU?

We only get diapers from diapers.com, not necessarily because it's cheaper (i think if you have a good coupon it's probably cheaper to get them at a store) but just because it is so easy and convenient. I love that I can order a big pack and get free shipping, and get it in 2 days, without having to drag one or both kids to a store and carry the pack out to my car.

Yeah, I'm lazy.

yes, yes, yes

We use amazon subscription service which is 30% off right now....has been for a few months now for new members - and they even gave us existing members the same discount.

I ordered some overnites to come sooner and they came in 1 or 2 days.  I love that - no hassle.

I know they are cheaper than costco/kirkland brand for my size.  really have to do some research.

interesting... so with amazon, do you pay for the subscription service?  Do they take mfgr coupons in addition to the 30% off?  Also, wasn't there an offer in Parenting this month? or, was that just the 30% off if you sign up for their subscription service?

I signed up for Amazon's subscribe and save ( no fee, can cancel at any time) and got the 30% off.  I was also able to use 3 coupon codes from Parenting.  I got 360 diapers for $33.40.  

I am a happy camper.

no cost to do it.  I don't think they normally take regular coupons but someone mentioned the other day about a coupon for signing up (besides the 30% which has been going on since before june of this year - the sale).  I think it was smilee.

I've ordered twice from Amazon using subscribe & save and a coupon.  The diapers came to 50% off plus it included free 2 day shipping.

we use amazon, and I like it for the autoship, and for the free shipping. It is less hassle, and there are always diapers, so I am happy. Price wise, it can be cheaper, it can be a few pennies difference, but the benefit of not having to shop around, or look for coupons is priceless!
