Building a Cloth Diaper Stash

We have decided to cloth diaper now that we have two in diapers. We were using a diaper service but I figured instead of spending $75 a month on a service, I could use that money towards buying my own diapers and save some in the long run. Once it was decided, I was on a mission. Where could I find the best deals on the diapers I wanted to try? I had no idea how many online stores there are who carry cloth diapers, but it is hard to find one that has everything you want, in the right sizes, colors, etc. Cloth diapers are a hot commodity apparently, and items are often sold out.

I had my work cut out for me. Searching for clearance products, free shipping deals and coupon codes, and then scouring each store's inventory, here is what I ended up with:

5 Thirsties Pocket AIOs ($12 each!)
2 Drybees (one AIO and one hybrid)
2 Happy Heiny's Prints
4 Happy Heiny's One Size
2 Wahmies One Size Pockets
1 BumGenius 3.0 One Size
1 Mommy's Touch One Size AIO
2 quarts of Allen's detergent
2 Wahmies pail liners in designer prints
3 Thirsties Fab Doublers
6 BumGenius One Size inserts

All for a grand total of $356.24 including shipping. I used a total of 4 different retailers, 2 coupon codes, and 2 free shipping offers.

I now need to find me some Fuzzi Bunz or else my expert CD-ing friend, Bernadette, will never forgive me. Then I sit back and wait for all my packages to arrive.
