Similac coupons?

**Daphne** · 10-16-2005, 09:30 PM

I'm hoping this is the correct place for this.

I have signed up everywhere I know to and I still can't receive the coupons I'm looking for. Jacob uses Similac Advance with Iron formula and the only coupons I have received from there are the soy formula coupons.

Any advice on how I can get coupons for this? Thanks!!

I would contact the manufacturer. Tell them that this is this is the formula of choice (or necessity) and how much you like it. Ask if they will send you coupons and add you to their mailing list.

You could also check ebay. I often buy a "lot" of coupons for items that I use regularly, such as my detergent, my favorite stain pretreater, etc. Although it is illegal to sell coupons, people do list them and then add disclaimers (that they are not selling them - we are supposedly paying for their time to locate, clip and list the coupons). Do pay attention to how much you are bidding though - I have seen some popular/rare coupons bid up to ridiculous levels that cannot possibly save money in the end. Don't forget to check the seller's feedback score and also, take into account how much the seller will charge to ship your purchase out.

I hope this helps a bit. Maybe someone else will have more to add.

Blessings,

Michelle

I was going to suggest calling the manufacturer as well. Here is some contact info. If you've joined the Welcome Addition club, you could call the number here and tell them that you haven't received any coupons. I'm sure they can help you.

Oh and you may even be able to get the formula (unopened of course

) from Ebay as well.

Do you belong to any of the warehouse clubs (Costco, Sam's, BJ's Wholesale, etc.)? If so, check there for the formula, and when you get coupons you can use them there and save lots. That's where we used to buy formula for Kathryn. It was the soy formula and was more expensive and harder to find than othe formulas, but I found it for a great deal at BJ's, and I was able to use coupons/formula checks for it as well.

Good luck

That's the kind of formula I used for Miss K for the first 5 months or so.

Sam's wouldn't let me use the checks there. Walmart almost always had the best price (of the discount stores, I mean).

We eventually switched to the walmart brand...Parent's choice. It's cheaper & she did better on it.....she had reflux & was crabby all the time.

I'd also suggest contacting the manufacturer....and if you have a friend or two that is expecting or has a new baby...they may also be getting them & just not using them.
