Babies: 9 - 12 Months

Anyone use Target brand formula?

The equivalent of Enfamil/Similac?  I BF but DD gets formula sometimes and I ran out and I compared cans and everything seem identical.  I bought the big can for cheaper than what I was getting the little can of Enfamil for. 

Anyone have pros/cons? TIA 

Re: Anyone use Target brand formula?

  • We have used the generic at Target now since he was about 3 months old.  I haven't noticed any changes with him adapting to it or anything.  It's much cheaper.

  • We actually go back and forth between the two and my DD hasn't had any problems. The Target brand seems to be more "flour-y" for lack of a better word than the Enfamil and to me has more of an irony smell but other than that it seems fine. And DD can be pretty picky.

  • We had fully planned on using the Target brand before we found out DS has a milk/soy allergy.  We have several friends that have used it and none of thier kids have had any issues.
  • I just started DS on the next step target brand...He was on nutramigen so I wanted to use that to see if he's outgrown his milk sensitivity.  He is doing GREAT with it!  We've almost gone through a whole big can with no issues.  I definitely recommend it.
  • We switched from Enfamil with Iron to the Target equivalent when DS was two months old and we have had absolutely no problems!? It saves us a bundle!

  • I highly recommend it.  No problems with it at all and it is 1/2 the price!
  • awesome.  thanks ladies!  she's only had it once so far and no issues that i can tell but i plan on sticking to this one since it will save me money.
  • Yes, we use the Target version of Enfamil Lipil. It's cheaper, easier to mix (less bubbles), and Oliver can't tell a difference.
  • The Target brand that is the generic Similac is brand new. I am there every week and I just saw it for the first time $16.99. But I had so many coupons that it was cheaper for me to buy Similac this time. But once I am done with coupons and rebates I am switching! So excited!

  • From what I understand, it has the same reference #s - comes from the same factory which A LOT of generics do.  We've been using the Target stuff from the beginning.  It's the same ingredients so why even try the stuff that's nearly 2x the $
