What is the best diaper that you can remember finding and being able to use??

For me it was a package of 32 Luvs Size 6 from 1999.

I was hired by a neighbor lady to clean out her basement in 2013, mostly just remove a bunch of junk and bring it to the transfer station for her. While moving some boxes down from the top shelf I found an unopened package of Luvs Size 6 diapers sitting there. I grabbed the package and looked it over, it was fully intact, no holes, no nothing, so I set it off to the side. When I brought her down to show her all the stuff I was planning on bringing to the dump she asked me if I knew anyone who had a baby and would want the diapers instead of tossing them, I told her I knew someone who could use them and thanked her for them. She was happy to find them a home and not toss them. I spent the next 3 days in Luvs heaven!!! Wish I still had some of them now, but 6 years is a long time for quality vintage diapers!!
 
Here is my best diaper find so far; 6 Pampers Walker diapers for girls from 1993. I bought these at a thrift store for only $1. I've had some moderate luck before but not to this extent. I still have these in my collection. I doubt I could ever bring myself to use them.

I bought the same diapers as Aquasailor-- only a ton of them. It was about 2002, and I saw an entire section of vintage Pampers in a chinese grocery store in Fresno CA. I bought every last package they had! They were smaller packs, about 20 diapers a piece. I had about 35 packages of them. I sold them off one by one on eBay, although not for the extortionate prices they have these days. I paid about $5 a bag for them and sold them for about $40-$50. I paid for an entire semester of college tuition with the proceeds! I did keep one damaged bag for myself. They certainly don't make diapers like those anymore. You should have seen the scene in that grocery store lol... I had 2 full carts of diapers. People were staring!!

My best find was prob the diaper that got me into this whole scene, being 10yrs old I was at the neighbors house, long story short I went to the bathroom, they have a basket of pampers size 5 stretch on top of the toilet, I took one out and tried it, I was forever hooked.

If that includes nappies “borrowed” from friends’ younger siblings, then it has to be some Sainsburys own brand from the early 1990s that I purloined from under the bed of a friend’s little brother who still wore them for bed wetting.

Blimey they were huge. And thick too.

The plastic was strong, shiny and a bit rubbery. They were unisex but had a blue waistband.

Most “borrowed” nappies were on the tight side but these weren’t.

I’m going all tingly just thinking about them!
