Does Your Target Carry BumGenius One Size 3.0?
If there was one cloth diaper loved by more parents it has to bumGenius diapers. Everywhere I go it seems bumGenius has made its presence known.
Jenn, the creator of bumGenius, has done a phenomenal job of marketing her product to the public. Besides bricks and mortar cloth diaper stores, bumGenius can be found in many health foods stores like Whole Foods and the newest merchant Target. This is huge for cloth diapers. With Costco making them available online I was excited, but to actually be able to pick up cloth diapers in a regular store is outstanding!
bumGenius cloth diapers are often raved about as being “sposie trim” and daycare/daddy friendly. Because of the suedecloth inner we have not used bumGenius but the new Organic bumGenius offers me a chance to try out the bumGenius brand.
Besides packing up the kids and driving to the nearest Target to discover if they carry bumGenius you can call the Target corporate customer service number 1-800-440-0680 and ask for stores in your area carrying these specific DPI (item #s):
wetbag (found by searching for “wet bag”): 030 00 2235
reuseable diapers: 030 00 2126
They are showing up under Parent Inventor’s so asking customer service for local stores carrying cloth diapers will bring up nothing.
If your local Target does not carry them give it some time. Right now they are in the test market phase. There are a number of test stores that immediately sold out, some even before actually stocking the diapers. This is certainly the right message to send to Target!
You can purchase discounted packs of bumGenius online from Leslies Boutique!

i just called the 800 #. they said that the items are out of stock for all target stores. she could not tell me when / if they would be in again or if my stores even carried them. good sign though!!!!
I’m so excited to hear this!!! I’ve been raving about my bumgenius to friends. I’m getting on the phone to Target to see if they are going to carry them in my area.
Your blog has helped me spread the word to friends about cloth diapering. I wish I’d known about the cd resources w/my first! Since I just had my last baby I don’t feel like I can try as many things as I’d like. Oh well, at least I don’t have to run to the store for diapers and wipes anymore.
Thank you for the info. I called the 800 # and found out that a target about 30 mins away had it in stock! I am going tomorrow to pick it up since they only had one of each!
Just checked with Target HQ - they aren’t carrying them anymore. Here’s the email:
Dear Sarah,
Thanks for your additional e-mail. I just checked on the wetbag and the reusable diapers you’re looking for at Target. I’m sorry to tell you that they’ve been discontinued and are no longer available at any of our stores.
We change our merchandise frequently to make sure we have the latest variety of merchandise for you to choose from. Hearing your feedback about these items is very important to us and I’ve shared your comments with our Merchandise and Buying teams.
Thanks for writing. We’ll keep working to find more merchandise that fits your lifestyle.
Sincerely,
