3.    Twins club
Clubs for parents of multiples exist in towns and cities all over the world and nearly all of them sponsor annual or bi-annual sales where families can buy and sell clothes, toys and equipment. These events are a wonderful way to pick up great bargains on baby stuff. Not only will you save money, but you might even make some if you decide to recycle your own gently used stuff.

Having a baby is the most beautiful moment. But spending money for diapers, sometimes make you sad. Don’t worry. Read the tips, and you’ll stay wealthy.

1.    Don’t be a brand-minded mom.
Hey, mom, your kids won’t ever know what is the brand of their diapers. So you don’t need to look for the most famous diapers’ brand, because it will lose your wealth. All you have to do is buy another brand of the diapers which is cheaper than –for example- Huggies.

2.    Do the research
Do some research to compare the price of the diapers. So you can buy the cheaper one (or cheapest, instead). Don’t forget to keep a record of it price on your notebook. 

3.    Disposable diapers
Why not? Consider cloth diaper products as well as diaper services that deliver clean diapers and launder the dirty ones for you. The decision to use cloth or disposable diapers is usually based on other factors in addition to cost: convenience, environmental concerns, personal philosophies, medical considerations, etc.

4.    Stock up
Buying in bulk is almost always more economical than buying smaller quantities. If you find a bargain price, buy at least enough to last a couple of weeks (100-200). But don't overbuy, because babies grow quickly.

5.    Sharp on sale
Peruse the weekly sales flyers in the newspaper and be alert for sales on diapers that may lower the PDC on your favorite brand.

                Cash will make you realize how much money you have spent. Using credit cards won't make you realize that you are lavish. When you use an electronic form of payment you are only restricted by the amount of money in the bank or the available credit on the card. So throughout the week when you are spending money on groceries, the morning coffee or lunch out with friends, you don't realize how much each small purchase is adding up unless you are balancing your checkbook immediately after each purchase.

                "But it's difficult to throw away my cards!" Yeah, I know.  But you have to try. First of all, hide your cards under the pillow and start to create a budget for how much money you will need throughout the week. Count every single thing, including lunch and transportation. After the count, you will decide how much money you'll put on your wallet. For example, you'll spend $100 for a week. Just put $100 on your wallet, or you can give yourself bonus, by adding $10. So you have $110 for a week. Please be discipline.

                After one week, see the changes you made. You'll find that the bills you paid are realistic and meaningful. And found how cash money will really help to prevent your wealth.
