Bulk Baby Formula

There are numerous reasons to buy bulk baby formula. One is convenience. If you buy one can at a time, you may find yourself at the grocery store quite often. Babies drink a great deal of formula, often more than new parents estimate. Finances are another reason to purchase in bulk. The WIC program provides formula to those who meet financial guidelines, however some are finding the formula provided is not enough and they are forced to purchase more. Regardless of whether you pay full price or receive assistance, formula purchased in large quantities can be a money saving strategy.

Formula can cost anywhere from $10 to $30 per can on average. This is the estimated price for powdered formula, liquid and ready to feed varieties may be even more expensive. One top brand is Similac Advance Infant Formula with Iron. Let's use this particular formula as a case study of bulk buying benefits. Per 25.7 ounce can, this product costs about $26.99. If you chose a case of six cans you would pay around $143 on average which comes out to $23 per can. While a case of six cans may only save you $3 per can a larger case would provide a larger savings.

While you can find bulk cases and cartons of formula in grocery stores and discount stores like Wal-Mart, K-Mart and Target, the best place to shop may be a warehouse store like Costco or Sam's Club. These stores sell everything in bulk and often have fantastic deals and large quantities. When purchasing large amounts of formula at once, go for the powdered variety. It has a longer shelf life than the liquid varieties and is easily stored.

Before you decide on bulk baby formula, make sure you are positive about the brand and variety you want. Some babies can drink most any milk based iron-enriched formula, including the cheaper store brands. Others are intolerant to lactose and sucrose, and require a soy based formula. Babies suffering from colic often obtain relief from a hypoallergenic formula. There are even organic formulas on the market these days. Talk to your pediatrician to ensure your baby is consuming the right formula for his or her needs. If so, you are ready to start buying in bulk.
