target. Use their coupons and Cartwheel. They almost always have them.
Where do you get target coupons? The only ones I ever get are at the checkout.
I used to get a booklet in the mail with baby related coupons from Target. I am not sure if this is because I had the Target Red Card (though I didn't get the red card until she was almost 3 so it couldn't be from my red card purchases).
Come to think of it, that was strange!
Target coupons are on their site. All the way at the bottom under ways to save..click coupons
I jsut looked....no formula right now but there are wipes, diapers and gerber baby food.
They change all the time so you have to look periodically.
Thank you!
Also if you text "Baby" to 827438, they'll send you mobile baby coupons. You can text "coupon" to get other coupons too.

We tried DD on it and she couldn't take it. It gas her bad poops. I switched her to sensitive and then tries bru and target powder and she couldn't take that either. Similac powder was fine.
Same here. I had to use name brand Similac Sensitive only-she couldn't tolerate generic. I'd def try it again though, since it does seem to be fine for most babies.

Generic formula to my knowledge is all made by one company and then packaged and private labeled for MANY different companies.
So BJ's powder is the same as Target, CVS, Walgreens, Walmart etc.
See here: formula
Edited to add: http://www.perrigonutritionals.com/
And it's made in the USA!!

From what i understand some of the enzymes in the generic are not broken down, so the baby has to digest them differently. In Enfamil and Similac I believe those same ingredients are broken down.
So all the nutrition is the same, but not the breakdown of the ingredients.

Interesting.
DD had a much easier time digesting generic than actual enfamil. The name brand made her more gassy and caused her to spit up a lot whereas generic was the opposite.
Guess it totally depends on the kid!
