I've never felt the need for one of those nappy bins. If the nappy is that smelly, it can go straight into the outside bin!
That's if you have an outside bin
If your council still uses black bin liners nappies can smell up your kitchen bin very quickly. 
In that situation and given how smelly new born babies nappies can be those bins work a treat.

I suppose they'd also be very useful if you're living in a flat.

We stayed in a house on the side of a very steep hillside - too many steps for a wheelie bin, so we all used the old black bags. Unfortunately, foxes (and dogs
) would tear the bags open if left outside - even bags totally full with nappies! You only had to tidy up one of those messes to learn.

I agree with what Dudette wrote in her first post...the list thingy..
Another good idea is to find out whether you can get free samples of stuff, like nappies etc.
I know that over here Pampers has a babybox, which includes a packet of nappies for a newborn, plus som other things. And the babyshops have a similar thing, but with more stuff in like dummies, creams etc..
The UK pampers site is here: http://uk.pampers.com/en_GB/home.do
They have competitions and all sorts of stuff, as well as a page where you can follow the growth and development of the baby throughout your pregnancy..
