I'm feeling a little less overwhelmed after last night. We got a bunch accomplished.
1. We basically did our registry completion at Buy Buy Baby. I had wanted to change our stroller, but by the time I did, it had gotten bought. No biggie- I could just return it after the shower. Well it turns out, one group bought it and it didn't get taken off the registry, so we ended up with two travel systems. No complaints here though! It made our new pricier stroller easier to swallow! So we ordered that (since they didn't have our color in stock). We still dropped some major cash there, but we pretty much have everything we need minus some little items like pacifiers and more bottles.
2. We picked up the last few things we needed off our Target registry.
3. I got more diapers, my stock is now up to like 7 packages of newborn, 7 packages of 1s and a handful of 2s plus wipes. I've been doing some major couponing for them and haven't paid more than $3 per package
Re: Super Productive Night Yesterday
Congratulations on all the productivity! It feels amazing to check things off the list.
Can you please give a diaper-buying tutorial??
Do you have a Rite Aid nearby? That is where I get good deals. Other stores have them too, but seriously, I've actually gotten paid a couple times with Rite Aid already.

I have a Rite Aid nearby. What's the next step?
Ok, I am only buying Huggies right now. I'm pretty much sticking with Pure and Natural because they seem to be my best bet to avoid any irritation or whatnot. (I've been told the Pampers Dry ones have been causing rashes- so I went with the most natural ones possible).
So at Rite Aid right now here is what you can do (until like Saturday I think).
1. Go to coupons.com- print off the Huggies Pure and Natural $3 off coupons. You can print up to 2 at each computer. If you have access to multiple computers, 6 coupons is ideal.
2. Google for the $5 off $25 off at Rite Aid going on until Nov 30th.
3. Buy 3 packages of diapers for $8.99 a piece(on sale from $11.99).
4. Use your $5 off coupon as well as the three $3 off coupons. So pretty much, $27 for the diapers, -$5, $3, $3, and $3 = $13 total for the 3 packages.
5. You will receive $3 in up rewards for each package- so you'll get back $9 on your receipt that you can use immediately.
6. If you were able to get 6 of the Huggies coupons- do the process again. Use your up rewards this time. So your $13 total is now down to $4 for the 3 packages and you'll get another $9 in up rewards to use however you'd like.
If you only do it once, and don't even factor in the up rewards, you get them for about $3.25 a package. If you do it a second time, you get them for $2.83 a package and still have $9 in up rewards leftover.
Duracell batteries are also on sale-$13.99 down to like $8.88 plus $1 in up rewards. So You could use it on that and get a good deal on batteries. That's what I did because heaven knows we are all going to need stock in batteries!
If any of this isn't clear, just let me know!

Um, well I think I did the first round in September, and this is my 3rd time being able to get a good deal. So I'm going to guess once a month. I just want to be as stocked up as possible because at the rate babies go through diapers (esp in the beginning) I really don't want to pay full price.
