I'm wondering what information you MoM's can give on multiples discounts offered by manufacturer's?? Any companies give better discounts than others?? Any savings information that you could pass along to us MoM's-to-be would be much appreciated!! I keep calculating the cost of diapers, wipes, formula etc for these two and it gives me anxiety!!
Re: Savings for Multiples
I'm not buying formula as my dd needed lactose free formula and I'm not sure what these two will need.
These are some blog entries I have bookmarked for when my girls get here.

I actually have a list of where I applied to and what I got in return even if it was a letter about them not having a program at this time. I suggest having the letters all ready to go out with the envelopes addressed and stamped. That way all you have to do is copy the birth certificates put in envelopes and mail them out. A lot of the companies only give out discounts before they are 3 years old. I had twins and some companies have a program but for triplets and up but still since I sent the letter and proof of birth they sent something.
Here's my list that I can think of off the top of my head
Huggies- diaper and wipe coupons
Pampers/Luvs- diaper and wipe coupons for both brands
Triple paste- each girl receive a tub of diaper ointment. (for triplets and above they get a $200 gift basket)
Butt Paste- does not currently have a program
Ocean Spray- coupons
Beech Nut- coupons, planning booklet, and rewards program information- two for each girl
Gerber- one time $10 coupon
Beiersodor- free samples
Earth's best- coupons for diapers, wipes, and baby food
Sassy- buy one get one
Hasboro- $3 off coupon for each baby
Johnson and Johnson- coupons
Enfamil- case of formula for each girl. They sent a letter asking me to call to give more details. Each baby receive a case for them with the formula that they used. (my one uses soy and that is what her case was my other regular she received that)
Seven generation- coupons
Mustella- coupons
First years- each baby got a rattle and a pack of sippy cups
Dr Browns- 2- 2 ounce bottles
Similac- call and ask for free samples
I also signed up with each formula company even if my girls did use that formula I trade the coupons for what I do use.
My girls are now 4 months and our gerber coupon this month came with not only the formula one but for stage 1 food as well.
Also ask your pediatrician or a MoM's group in your area.
Sorry for the post being so long. Hope this helps
I've been compiling a spreadsheet of discounts for multiples programs. I think I've heard back from everyone now, so /I want to share my findings... but I'm not sure how to do it since it's an excel spreadsheet.
I will try to make it a priority to figure it out this week, and I will share the link or whatever here!!!
