Facial tissues are softer and much less expensive than paper towels - and I don't have to bother with cutting the paper towels in half (which can get quite bothersome).

Thanks to J. Buffett for this Frugal Baby Tip!

    I save even more by using wash clothes. They go right in the diaper pail and are washed with the diapers.
