Diapers / Formula:
Many store tags will tell you how much an item costs per ounce, per pound or by some other unit of measure. Don't forget to comparison-shop by unit price and save.
For example, a pack of 40 diapers costing $13, runs 33 cents per diaper, whereas a box of 144 diapers costing $35, runs only 24 cents per diaper.
That small difference of 9 cents may not seem like much, but changing a diaper six to eight times each day, equals a savings of $16 to $22 per month. Double that for twins and you've got a nice little amount to tuck away in the 529!
