An idea for homemade baby wipes is to get a Rubbermaid container, with a tight fitting lid.
Fill it with dry cotton squares (or rounds), the kind you use for removing your make-up.
Then add a few squirts of baby oil, and fill the container with warm water.
Close the container until you need a fresh wipe.
They work just as well as the store bought wipes, but are cheaper, and this way you can be sure of what is touching your baby's skin.
Thanks to Sherri for this great Frugal Baby Tip!

About Catherine: I have been writing my Frugal Baby Tips since 1982, when I was a young divorced mom of two - for my baby product company, Born to Love. I am now mom to three grown up sons, and a grandma - and happily married to a wonderful man. We have rescued two little dogs, Denny and Dexter - and a rescue cat, Bella.
Taking care of baby and mom needs naturally, does not have to cost a whole lot of money! Money-saving tips on diapering, diaper washing, safety, sling and baby carriers, toys, clothing, nursing, menstrual needs, traveling with kids, and more!
If you have Frugal Baby Tips to share, we want to hear them! It might even get published!

I use cloth diaper, so for me it makes more sense to use a wash cloth that will be washed with the diapers. I keep a spray bottle with a water/soap/olive oil mixture to spray on my son's bottom to clean it and just wipe with a wash cloth.
