Obviously we all know breastmilk is best... but I was a mom who couldn't, and I know that I'm not the only one in that situation... so please no discussion about the pros/cons of breastfeeding here.
Just thought I'd share this information with you all. If you are formula feeding, I highly recommend the Parent's Choice (sold at Wal-Mart) infant formula. It is nutritionally equivalent to Similac and Enfamil and you can save up to 50% off of these brands. We used it for our twins and they did exceptionally on them.
You can save $3 off a canister simply by calling PBM Nutritionals at 1-800-272-5095 once every 30 days (mark your calendar) and they will mail you a $3 coupon. The coupons generally take 6-8 weeks to arrive, and even if you have not received a coupon from your first call, you can call to request your next coupon.
You may also request free samples as they are available on the Parent's Choice website.
At our Wal-Mart, a 23.2 ounce canister retails for $11.88... after a $3, coupon, it's only $8.88
Compare to: Similac 23.2 ounce Tub $22 (if you purchase 6 at a time from Wal-Mart)
Or
Enfamil 23.4 ounce Tub $23.67 (if you purchase 6 at a time from Wal-Mart)
So if you think you might need to formula feed and want to save even more... start calling tomorrow. It may take some time for the coupon to arrive. You can keep the money you save for other things you really need.. like diapers!
