Homemade Baby Wipes

With having 2 kids in diapers soon, I am looking to find ways to save some money.

Baby wipes can add up. Yeah- At Wal-Mart you can get Parents Choice brand wipes for about $16 for 900 wipes and Costco sells theirs for around $19 (We only buy them if they have coupons), but it still adds up.

I recently ran across this recipe for Homemade Baby Wipes from the Duggar Family (19 Kids and Counting family on TLC)

I figure once we are done with our wipes stash, I am going to start this new recipe.

INGREDIENTS:

1 Bounty Paper Towel Roll (Bounty was said to be the only brand that held up enough to be used.).... 2 Cups Water..... 1 TBL Rubbing Alcohol... 2 TBL Baby Oil..... 1 TBL Baby Bubble Bath (Optional, for scent and softness)

*Cut the paper towel roll in half. They recommend using an electric knife to cut it.... *Combine the rest of the ingredients.... *Place half a paper towel roll in a clean, dry 1 gallon ice cream bucket..... *Drissle liquid over paper towels..... *Cut an X Shape on the lid and secure..... *After 30 minutes, remove lid and remove cardboard tube..... *Feed the first wipe through the hole. Keep lid securely on tub so you don't dry out your wipes.

With having everything in our house besides Bounty Paper towels, I am looking at $9.00 for around 900 wipes. $10 less than what I normally pay. Plus, I can get good coupons for Bounty Paper Towels, so I am look for even less of a price. :)
