We all love to see our babies happy, and growing up strong, yet we hate to spend so much money on formula.  Formula is a very costly expense when it comes to your baby.  We knew babies would be expensive, but who knew they’d be this expensive!  The costs of everything add up, and it may make it harder to save money.  Although baby formula is expensive, there are ways to save money on it.  You may not get it for free, but how would you like to save a few bucks each time you buy it?

Breastfeed - First of all, there is always the option to breastfeed if you think formula is going to be or is too expensive.  Breast milk is actually healthier for your baby, so there is always this option.  Not to mention, breastfeeding can save anywhere from $1,000-$3,000 each year depending on which kind you buy.

Coupons - If you look around, you will be able to find coupons.  Go to the companies website, look for coupons, and check your Sunday newspaper.  Buy using coupons, you can a couple dollars each time!

Sales – Try to buy baby formula only when it’s on sale.  If you can do this, you will save a lot of money in the long run.  This means, if you don’t think it’s going to be on sale next week, get two this week.

Bulk – You should also consider buying it in bulk.  This can save you a lot of money as well.  A great place to get it from is Amazon.  Amazon has great prices, and then when you buy it in bulk that’s even cheaper!

Stock up – If ever you see a good deal on baby formula, stock up.  Get a couple cans at a time, even though it may seem like a lot, you know your baby will be done with it in no time.  Also, don’t worry about the bill, because really you’re saving money compared to if you didn’t get it at a good price later on.

Baby formula may be expensive, but there is really no way to get around that, unless you breastfeed.  So, if you’re looking so save a buck here and there, be sure to consider a few of these tips.  This will allow you to get it at the best price possible.
