Real Nappy Week is coming and I thought I'd do a blog entry all about it.
There are events held by companies to raise awareness of using cloth, online retailers having sales on cloth nappies and facebook pages holding competitions and giveaways. It's a fab week to pick up bargains and help save you further money by using cloth.

The Great British Nappy Hunt - http://www.greatbritishnappyhunt.co.uk/index.html
During this week, participating retailers will be hiding 'Billy the Cloth Bummed Kid'somewhere on their sites. All you have to do is register to receive daily information and clues about where to find Billy, track him down on our participating retailers' sites, click on him and answer Billy's questions.
Each correct entry will be entered into a daily prize draw with all correct entries being submitted to the final Grand prize draw at the end of the week.
Billy the cloth bummed kid has lots of gorgeous nappies to share with his hunting friends this Real Nappy Week, so don't miss out!
Real Nappy Week Retailer Organisation - http://www.realnappyweek.org/index.html
We want to make this year the best Real Nappy Week EVER, so help us spread the word about Real Nappies by playing our fantastic game of Clothopoly and getting all your friends involved. With a total of 61 prizes worth up to £500 available, you've got to be in it to win it!
Clothopoly is a game where competitors visit different cloth nappy websites to collect game pieces, just as in a traditional game of monopoly. Instead of visiting swanky Mayfair or Park lane, competitors will be visiting BumGenius or Tots Bots to collect letters which make a winning phrase.
In total, 67 retailers are supporting Clothopoly by donating prizes, a total of £8300 worth!
A list of supporters is available here.
Prizes
Grand Prize: £500 worth of nappies, wipes, changing bag and accessories!
10 x Second Prizes: £250 worth of nappies and accessories
50 x Runner-up Prizes: £75 worth of nappies and accessories
The Great Cloth Diaper Change - http://greatclothdiaperchange.com/?page_id=8
In 2012, 256 locations in 15 countries held SIMULTANEOUS events to break the world record for the most reusable cloth diapers changes simultaneously. That meant that some events (like in Malaysia) happened at 2am!
In 2013, we will be holding a slightly different event. This year, we will be changing the diapers at 11am LOCAL TIME, so the change will roll around the world. In order to make this event a success and increase awareness of reusable cloth diapers, we need your participation!
Here's a map of events taking place during the week, hopefully there's one near you!
Retailers to visit during the week which may have discounts on nappies
It may also be worth liking the retailers facebook pages so you can keep up to date with any offers going on.
If you know of any other events or retailers taking part please comment and I'll add them to my post.
