If one were to search for a 100-pack of Huggies diapers on Amazon, one would find them for around $24. But according to TikTok user Bree (@breerenee33), there’s a better option for new parents in search of a budget diaper—and it comes from a place one might not expect.
In a video with over 1.5 million views, Bree sings the praises of diapers from Aldi.
“When you finally decide to buy 100-pack of diapers from Aldi for $11 and they end up being way more absorbent than Huggies & pampers that are $50 for 100 pack,” she writes in the text overlaying the video.
@breerenee33 THIS IS YOUR SIGN TO GET YOUR DIAPERS FROM ALDI!!! After testing the Aldi diapers i will never buy anything else 😂 my baby selp for 10 hours STRAIGHT and woke up completely dry and the diaper wasnt ready to explode 🥴 huggies and pampers have failed to do that for us for 9 months but i thought they were “the best” brands 🥴 But youre telling me for $11 my baby can sleep uninterrupted for 10+ hours straight and i can get more sleep too???

In the caption of the video, she adds, “THIS IS YOUR SIGN TO GET YOUR DIAPERS FROM ALDI!!! After testing the Aldi diapers i will never buy anything else.”
“My baby [slept] for 10 hours STRAIGHT and woke up completely dry and the diaper wasnt ready to explode,” she continued. “Huggies and pampers have failed to do that for us for 9 months but i thought they were ‘the best’ brands…But youre telling me for $11 my baby can sleep uninterrupted for 10+ hours straight and i can get more sleep too??? Love to see it.”
Bree later posted a video testing the absorbency of the diapers compared to a similar offering from Pampers. It does appear in her test that the Aldi diaper is more absorbent.

According to commenters, the secret of Aldi diapers is quickly becoming more well-known.
“I was in line at walmart and the guy behind me recommended them and said that’s what they used for all his kids,” detailed a commenter. “This is my sign lol.”
“Love ALDIs diapers!! My son is 2 and I’ve been buying since he was 8months old!” exclaimed a second. “Wish I discovered them sooner.”
“Why are you sharing our secret?!” questioned a third.
Others shared their own budget diaper suggestions.
“Me but with amazons mama bear! $32 for almost 200 diapers,” advised a commenter. “wayyy better and more absorbent for over night than huggies/pampers.”
“I get my baby Kirkland diapers, 198 for $44 at Costco,” explained another. “Never had any issues with them.”
