Always buy the biggest box of diapers
Skip 🔬 Evidence-based
The hack
The giant box is always the cheapest per diaper, so buy the biggest one.
Where it's popular: The Krazy Coupon Lady: cheap diapers all year
Scout's verdict
Not reliably. The Krazy Coupon Lady found a 144-count Huggies box at 26¢ a diaper while the 200-count box was 33¢. Babies also outgrow sizes fast, so a huge box can strand diapers. Unit price, not box size, decides.

Bottom line: Skip the rule, check the cents per diaper. That’s StealDrop’s whole job.
