I don't mind cheaper diapers, Up&Up, local store brand(meijer),Luvs. Cheap wipes suck! I bought a huge pack of Up&Up and I can wait until they are gone. I even donated a few to church. My local store's wipes were not as bad as Targets.
I love up and up wipes! And the diapers are good when the poops become more solid- they are great toddler diapers IMHO. I only use Pampers for baby runny poops!
I use up&up for diapers and wipes. They are the cheapest and we rarely have a leak (blow outs only). We only used pampers when we took him home from the hospital because we took everything from the hospital room that we could carry. I never had a problem with the up&up wipes.
I just opened a box of Parents Choice wipes that we got as a gift (I think they're Walmart brand?) and I love them - DD has been having diaper rash off and on and they have cleared since I started using these wipes. We previously used pampers and huggies. I haven't tried that brand of diapers though, but I didn't have an issue with Up&Up diapers.
We use Up & Up diapers and wipes. I love both but I just opened a pack of wipes and they were SO much more stiff than normal. I normally buy a bulk box but this was just a one off pack I picked up in an emergency. Hopefully it was just a bad package and not the new norm.
I use up and up diapers and am super happy...except I haven't found that they make overnight diapers. She pees through them during the night so we use pampers overnights. I have a huge box of pampers wipes at home still but our diaper bag has parents choice.
We use Luvs or Pampers diapers but I love Huggies wipes. I usually only need 2 for a poopy diaper. We use the natural, fragrance free ones and they are nice and thick. I get them from amazon subscribe and save.
I've tried Pampers, Walmart brand, Up & Up and a few other store brands and hated them all.
I hate Huggies wipes and my wipe of choice are up&up sensitive. Funny how everyone's opinions differ and people can love one while others absolutely hate them.

I don't love the up&up wipes for real food poops. They are too thin so you have to use a bunch of them. But I think they are fine for formula/BM poop. That being said, we still buy them for both kids because they are usually so much cheaper.
And see - I hate Huggies wipes because I feel like they are way too thick! To each their own. I use Pampers Wipes and will often have to use 4 or so to wipe a poop up! It doesn't bother me - no big deal!

I use pampers. I love them. I actually use up and up wipes. I also use about 4 wipes for a poopy diaper.
