Brand Name Formula vs. Wal-Mart (Parents Choice) brand

Thoughts on using the Wal-Mart brand over a brand name formula???
I want to save some $$ this time around and this looks like it could be a real savings.
Any input is appreciated - thanks Chat Icon

It's the same thing, I use the soy one opposed to Isomil and my DS actually likes it better and I find he spits up less. Chat Icon

infant formula is federally regulated....so each brand MUST adhere to the standards.

Use it.

I used Parent's Choice, Sams and Target when DD was an infant. They are all made by the same company. Parent's Choice will send you a $3.00 coupon every 30 days if you email them.

Im not sure about ready to feed b/c I only use powder but a can of Gentlease is $25 while Walmarts comparative is $14.88.

Caden was fed on Parents Choice Brand formula and I even switched between brands (Enfamil) if I got a free can, with no problems what so ever.

As PPs have said it's the same exact stuff..

He's on Milk now but I give him a Parents Choice Brand Next Step bottle every day too...The price of their formula is the same price as milk and with all the kids in the house we are always running out of milk...this way I always have it for him.

I used parent's choice version of gentelease when Steven was 9 months and I was so sorry I didn't do it sooner. it is the SAME thing for a fraction of the cost.
