    I've noticed Enfamil coupons seem to go faster than Similac coupons and I wondered what brand is most popular.

    We started on Similac Neosure from the NICU then we switched to Enfamil Enfacare. The Enfacarel was about a dollar per can cheaper here and that's what we used with ds1. Now we just use regular Enfamil with LIPIL but we are looking into the generic. N & M go through a $25.00 (25.7 oz) can in 2 days. :eek:

    Similac sensitive. I also use the RTF. Tried the powder, but it seems so thin and yucky, plus more work-although I should use it.

    We're just on the basic Similac powder. I have started adding a scoop of Target brand to help us go through it a little slower.

    We were started on the Nestle Good Start Natural Cultures in the hospital. We've tried numerous times to switch to a cheaper brand with no luck (lots of belly upset). We had a TON of Enfamil free samples, so at about 10 mos, we tried mixing some of it into the Nestle again. This time it worked! Now we're flying through our free samples & are on our LAST can of Good Start. If we run out, we're onto MILK!

    We tried just about all of them in the beginning, but ended up on Parent's Choice Soy(Walmart brand).

    We started on Enfamil Enfacare then switched to regular Enfamil Lipil when the girls were about a month old. Now we're using the Sam's Club version of Enfamil which is tons cheaper and the girls seem to like it fine.

    We made the switch to store brand last week with no problems! :good: We keep some of the rtf cans around in case of emergency when we're out but they don't really like it as well as the powder.

    ETA: We started supplementing breast milk with enfacare for the first few months. Then we moved to Enfamil Lipil. So now we're buying the store brand equivalent. I got Target and I think someone here told me that Parent's Choice from WM is the same. Therefore, I'm guess that the Sam's Club store brand would be the same as those two.

    [SIZE=10pt]We're in the process of transitioning off of formula :banana:

    We started off by using Enfamil Enfacare while in the NICU (for the higher calories) and for the first few months at home. Around 4 months we switched to Costco's formula.

    We use Costco's Kirkland brand. 2 big cans for like $19, i think. Sooo much cheaper than most.
