The Dunnes Baby and Toddler Event in On Now and Your Budget Will Thank You

There’s a very specific kind of despair that hits when you reach into the changing bag at an inopportune moment and realise you’re down to your last nappy. If you’ve been there (and honestly, which of us hasn’t), the Dunnes Stores Baby and Toddler Event is the universe nudging you to get organised.

Running in stores now until 16th June, the event brings together some of the most-reached-for products in early parenting — nappies, skincare, weaning meals and more — with solid savings on trusted brands and own-label essentials alike. It’s the kind of thing that quietly rewards the parents who spot it early and stock up before the shelves get picked over.

The standout deals worth knowing about

Here’s a run-through of a handful of what’s on offer and why it’s worth putting Dunnes on your next to-do list.

Dunnes Stores Nappies — Baby-Dry, Sizes 3–7
Dunnes Stores’ own-brand Baby-Dry nappies are priced from €2.79 to €3.25 each. If your little one is currently somewhere in the middle of a growth spurt and burning through nappies at an alarming rate, this is genuinely one of those “buy a few extra packs” moments. They move through sizes so fast it almost feels personal.

Johnson’s Baby Powder — 200g to 400g range
A nursery cupboard staple that tends to get taken for granted until it runs out, Johnson’s Baby Powder is currently 25% off. The range is now priced from €2.61 to €4.49 (was €3.49 to €5.99). The 400g bottle in particular is worth grabbing if you go through it quickly — once you’ve got a wriggly crawler or an on-the-go toddler, it disappears faster than you’d expect.

Dunnes Stores Baby Meal Pouches and Trays
Weaning is one of those stages that sounds lovely in theory and turns out to involve a lot of puréed sweet potato on the ceiling. The Dunnes Stores own-brand meal pouches (130g) and trays (190g–200g) come in a range of flavours — think Chicken Casserole, Pasta Bolognese, Lentil Dahl and more — products are organic, with pouches suitable from 7 months and trays from 10 months+ depending on texture. At €1.25 to €1.35 each, they’re ideal for days out, the bottom of the changing bag, or those evenings when cooking from scratch just isn’t happening and nobody’s judging you for it.

Sudocrem 250g
If there’s one product that earns its place in every home with a baby or toddler, it’s Sudocrem. The 250g tub is now €7.99 (was €9.99) — a saving of €2 on a product that rarely stays unused for long. Nappy rash, minor scrapes, a bit of dry skin, the mystery redness that appears from nowhere at bathtime — Sudocrem handles most of it without complaint. It’s the kind of thing you’ll use well beyond the nappy years, so stocking up when it’s reduced just makes sense.

A few weeks to take advantage

Baby and toddler costs have a way of sneaking up on you. The nappies, the wipes, the creams, the snacks — individually they seem manageable, but together they’re a recurring dent in the weekly shop that never quite goes away in those early years.

Events like this one are a practical chance to get ahead of it, even slightly. With the Dunnes Stores Baby and Toddler Event running until 16th June, there’s a decent window to pop in and take stock of what you actually need — before sizes sell out and you’re back to that last-nappy panic at the worst possible moment.

The baby aisle looks inviting right now. Head in-store to browse the full range of offers available during the event. You can check these out online also.
