My goal for this article is to give you 3 simple strategies for locating and buying modern nappies at the best price for your budget.
Cloth nappies will save you money and you can reduce your environmental impact by 40% by attention to responsible washing and drying techniques.
Let us think about three tips to find reusable cloth nappies online for less:
1. Secondhand Nappy Auctions and Sales
Yes, although there was a big hoo-hah a few years back when ebay banned the sale of second hand nappies online, this opened up new opportunities for local websites to offer this service for you to buy and sell quality used cloth nappies.
2. Nappycino Nappy Swaps!
Some local councils, cloth nappy consultants and Mums in mothers groups, online forums and other social gatherings for mums will arrange ‘Nappycinos’, which are simply get togethers when mums talk cloth nappies, swap with other mums to try out other brands or swap nappies as sizes and needs change, as well as trading them secondhand.You can have a cuppa and a chat at the same time, or simply ‘meet’ in online marketplaces to swap fluff for your baby’s bottom!
3. Nappy Giveaways on Cloth Nappy Blogs
Both nappy shops and cloth nappy enthusiasts have blogs where they keep you, as someone interested in modern nappies, updated about their nappies, what they are up to and they run cloth nappy giveaways to promote their products by rewarding loyal fans and attracting new visitors.
When you keep these 3 ideas in mind when you next go shopping for a modern reusable nappy for your baby, you’ll save money, find a nice variety of options to choose from. Modern nappies are trendy, increasingly popular and very beautiful!
