Formula price increase!

[mrs mcgrath]

Has anyone noticed that the price of formula has increased recently?

I usually buy Cow & Gate number 1 milk and its £6.96.... it has now gone up to £7.25

Also some other girls have commented about Aptamil rising to £8.49 when it was only £7.90 before...

As if baby products are dear enough!!

It'll just be with inflation Everything is more expensive now lol Formula isn't going to be any different.

well I noticed in our tesco that 2ltrs of semi skimmed milk has dropped to £1.12, was £1.18 for a long time but then again tesco prices are totally random, change all the time. one day i bought a multi packet of crisps at £1.19, two days later they were £1.59....

yes, aptamil blue first tub is still 7.90 in asda but up to 8.49 most other places!!!!

dont understand how it can jump up so high~??

think the rise in vat has been fully implemeted across the supermarkets now

but to be honest i dont consider £7 or £8 to be expensive to feed a baby for a week - just wait till they are older and eating us out of house and home

[mrs mcgrath]

Formula here cost me $30 a can

 

[Vickie]

there are cheaper ones out there, though I think the cheapest would be around $17/18 a can. It was just the one we chose to go with and was recommended to us and it was not cheap! but we chose to FF and I knew the costs it entailed so it didn't really upset me
