this is why i ebay

I've been wanting one of these diapering kits. SO BAD. But I've seen them retail for anywhere between $138-$146 and didn't want to spend that much $$ right now all in one shot. I realize this much money would be eaten up in disposable diapers within a couple months... etc, etc. But since I quit working things have been tight and it is easier to spend $48 a month on diapers vs. $145 in one shot. But... but... while searching for cloth diaper accessories last night on Ebay I came upon this exact set for sale from a mom in WI who wanted to try cloth but after receiving this she decided disposables were much easier. I snapped this up so fast I barely thought twice about it... she had a buy it now price of $75!!!!!!!!!! GO ME!! I'm so excited to get it! It contains 36 unbleached cotton prefolds, 6 small Bummis Super Whisper Wraps, 1 roll of flushable liners and a user guide. That should be enough supplies for 3 days of diapering... so I'll be washing 1-2 loads of the prefolds (and the wraps if they are dirty) every 3rd day.

So I've pretty much gotten my first 9-12 months of diapers for $75 people!! Oh and I did previously buy 2 infant size covers for $12 each... so for under $100 I've gotten what I need to start out!! I will have some other accessories to buy - cloth wipes, a few cotton doublers, disposable liners, a couple wet bags, a few medium covers and I may need more of the cotton prefolds... and since these are small size I may need a few more infant size if we have an itty bitty boy.

I love, love, love Ebay! :)

p.s. I've been watching my feed and am dying to know who is visiting from Ellsworth, WI? Please delurk! Leave me a message. I can usually tell who is visiting based on the city that comes up and if I know of someone who lives close by... but this one has me stumped. Who are you? If you don't want to delurk on my blog send me an email!!
