For equal comparison purposes, we used a box of Huggies Snug & Dry Diapers in size three as our reference diaper. There is no specific reason that we chose this diaper over others to use in our comparison, other than that it is carried regularly at all five online retailers. Sales tax for your state may apply to these prices as well.
