Quoting K.MarieAnnette:" is it the sam's brand formula? on the package it says it is made like enfamil and similac advance. check ... [snip!] ... similac advance. check out the ingredients and amounts between the two. you'll be surprised. it saves soooo much money! lol."

I don't think its Sam's brand? It looks like the reg similac advance...just bigger quanity.

Quoting A❤T=P+[It's a Girl:" and they will usually reduce the amount of formula you get, so you will be buying even more formula."

lol, I better start a piggy bank for the $ to be saved just for his milk.

But now I don't ever remember them giveing me less or reduceing....They have always gave me 9 cans from when they were born till 12 months...Unless, its changed.

IDK, I don't FF or get WIC. I used to work there.
WIC is different in different places, but here they reduce it. And I have seen several women on here post that as well.

Did this just start? Because they didn't do that with my girls when they were babies.

Either way, I am gonna start putting more money back for his milk.
He chuggs his formula faster than any baby I have ever seen, and gives his fingers and paci hell.
