I have been checking out Target, Toys r us & K Marts websites each week and when they have baby sales I go in and buy stuff like nappies, blankets etc. Also have a look on the baby care nursery website as they have a sale at the moment. My friend advised me to just buy one box of newborn nappies in advance in case the baby is big as they grow out of them quickly.
Regarding clothes I wouldn't buy too much in advance because you don't know what your baby's size will be. My SIL has a 5 month old boy who is already in 00 and 0's depending on the brand. This should have been winter clothes but he is big so now needs summer stuff still in these sizes. As they are so cheap to buy singlets etc, you can buy them at the time so as not to buy the wrong seasons.
But buying toiletries and washing powder each week is a good way of stocking up, again wait for them to be in the sales. Also if you shop at Coles make sure you use Flybuys so you can build them up and then when you have the baby and are short of money you can redeem your flybuys as Coles vouchers to spend on baby stock!
