12/4 = 3 diapers per $1
24/7 = 3.42 diapers per $1
28/8 = 3.5 diapers per $1
32/9 = 3.55 diapers per $1
40/12 = 3.33 diapers per $1

So you get the most bang for your buck with the 32 pack for $9... Hope that is of some help.. thats how I solved it.. Now if you can find a coupon, you have to factor in X=value of the coupon - shoppers club card... J/K...
