Sams Choice Diapers

My daughter and maybe even me, purchased these diapers and where the tabs are , are not complete so if you used them , childs diaper would either fall off or it would tear in the process of putting the diaper on. I have found several in a package like this? Whats the solution to the waste of money being spent on these diapers or any diapers when a problem like this occurs? I believe the problem starts at the factory or factories where these diapers are being made? Somebody isnt watching the line, or something?

What can I do next?

We have had the same problem, and quit using them because every package had a few missing tabs, and in the end we didn't use the ones missing, so lost money anyway. And the absorbancy isn't like Huggies. We also have sensitive skinned babes, and Huggies is the only one that didn't give them really bad bleeding rash. Well worth the money!

I use Parent's Choice diapers (I assume that's what your referring to from Wal-Mart) and have never had a problem with them. You might have gotten a bad pack. You should take it back and get another pack or refund. If not, try using tape so you don't waste them.

They are a bit cheap and don't absorb as well. I use the Parent's Choice diapers around the house and during the day, and use the name brand, more expensive diapers at night or when we're going out. We're a family of 6 and every penny counts, just another way to save a little money.

Hope this helps

Take them back. I had a problem with some huggies that I bought from Target. I didn't know whether to call the manufacturer or the store. i just took them to the store first because that was easiest. They just gave me a whole new box. It seemed like this happens somewhat frequently - at least they weren't surprised. They should take them back.

I bought a box of them about 2 months ago and mine were the same way also. I was going to call the customer service number but unfortunately never found a good time to do so as I work full time and didn't have much time after work. I eventually forgot about it, and now I believe its too late. I probably won't end up purchasing this brand again.
My MIL gets them all the time and said she's never had a problem. So I am guessing it was just a bad batch.

Sam's club is same as Walmart just in mass quantities need I really say more. I used walmart diapers a couple of times in a pinch with my older children and alot of them would have defects.

I would take them right back to Sam's club.

I have had that happen with their diapers, too. I don't buy them anymore. I find the leak too often and need to be changed more often.

Sometimes you get what you pay for, cheap trash bags-when you have to keep double bagging your trash to make it to the outdoor trash can without the bag falling apart then it's not cost effective, cheap diapers-they fall apart and leak and don't do anythinthey say they will do. Buy something else. If your child is in a 5 or 6 go ahead and pout them in the dark blue overnight pull ups that have Buzz Lighyear and Woody on them, those things nearly can't be peed out of. We have been traveling and forgot to change it one time and their clothes stayed dry and they were soaked inside the pull up.

My sister in law bought a package of defective diapers. She called the customer service number and they sent her a Check/voucher for a new package. I have also had a lot of good luck with Sam's Members Mark Brand.

Manufacturers know there are going to be errors in some "lots" of products produced. Almost every manufacturer has customer service measures in place to replace the cost of a defective product.

I'd agree with those who recommend either calling the customer service line or taking them back to the Sam's Club and asking for a refund. We do have a Sams Club membership, but we prefer to go to Costco because of their stellar Customer Service.
