What to do with full but open formula cans?

mrs.schwery

During our hunt for the right formula we acquired a bunch of almost full cans of formula. I just can't bring myself to throw them away if there is something to do with them. Will any place take them? Thanks.

donate? or maybe put an ad on craigslist for to give away to someone

i know that at my store (Target) we immediately throw away any formula that has been returned, open or not, so your best bet would be to ask around locally or the craigslist thing...

I thought open cans of formula were only good for 48 hrs ? I could be wrong....

You could find a women's shelter to donate to, I'm sure they'd accept it.

I can't imagine anyone would take an open can of formula.  It sucks, but that is too many risks.  People sell formula on craigslist, but only sealed containers.

They are good for a month.

I'm assuming she's talking about powder...that's good for a month. 

Personally, I wouldn't take open formula unless it was from someone I knew and trusted...my boss's wife and I swap stuff like that back and forth as our babies try (and occasionally reject) products.
