I have received 2 checks from enfamil of $5 and $4. It says that these are retail checks.

So can i submit in the bank to get it cashed to my account ? If not, what is the other way.

You take them to the grocery store and use them towards the purchase of Enfamil products.

These checks really come in handy to help pay for formula!! I wish you could take them to the bank.I would have taken a few! lol! Its hard to believe I used these 21 years ago! Wow they've been around for a long time.

Yes, I used that formula too, my daughter is 34 now, then it was something like 2.99? for a can of the powder mix, now it must cost an arm and a leg, I know they had it in cans already to serve, but it cost more than the powder, so I mixed my own.

Formula is REALLY expensive...especially when you have a baby that needs special formula. My baby used to have to use Nutremegen Lipil and it costs like $25 a can. We have switched him on to Similac Sensitive and it is okay but doesnt work the same as the Lipil. But Similac is only about $13 a can.

OH MY gosh I cannot believe the cost of a can of formula, that is outrageous! I remember when my son was a baby, no formula worked for him, I got tired of going back and forth to the doctor everytime it did not work, finally I said the heck with it and put him on low fat milk, worked like a charm, no more problems!

Do you think since he is almost 10mo it would be okay to try the low fat milk with mine since he is still having trouble with formula??

I'm no doctor but I would! I personally would have tried it several months ago.If in a few days he still having problem then try something else like it sounds likethats what you are doing now.

Yes, I agree, I never kept my kids on formula for that long, but it was different then, I don't know what they suggest anymore, but I don't see anything wrong with changing to 2% milk, its a whole lot cheaper!!
