$20???

Do you have one of those household items that you have to buy everyone now and then that really makes you cringe because it costs WAY too much! I have a few: laundry detergent, dog food, and cat food. Add one more to my list: Diapers.

Now that I have discovered coupons and a cheaper brand of laundry detergent, I am not cringing at the thought of doing laundry anymore. Having two dogs means going out of dog food at a much quicker pace, so I am still cringing over that one. Cat food isn't too bad, especially now that I have coupons for her brand. Today, I finally realized another item I will be cringing to buy...DIAPERS. Dun dun dun.

I never realized that a box of diapers is around $20-30. Not only that, but I heard that babies go through one box a week. Um...I am not that good at math, but I do know this isn't good. I was ok with buying a $20 bag of dog food once every 2 months, but now I am going to be buying diapers every week.

Geez. Hello financial wake up call.
