I remember when my first child was born in the late 80’s.

A box of disposable diapers in my area could not be had for anything less than ten bucks. I was only making around 19 grand per year.

It really irritated me. I bit the bullet and bought them. She was my child and it was my responsibility.

Mine —slightly older. I used cloth diapers most of the time, but also wanted to have disposables for the many car trips to grandma's. It was before the advent of big box stores. I got Toys R Us to sell me an entire carton for a much lower price. Had to drive around to the back of the store to have the stock clerk hand the carton out over the loading dock.
