I came home with this brand from the hospital, so I automatically assumed it to be good for the baby.. instead what I found was that my baby would be screaming for more when I did not feed her timingly on the dot, which in turn I found out was because she had basically come off a sugar high and wanted more. I had switched to an organic brand by earth’s best which tasted a lot less sugary and she never screamed for more milk… plus it lasted longer in her belly. They get around not having to label sugar because it’s under ‘lactose’… but you need your mommy tastebuds to figure it out. I would not recommend similac or any other highly sugary formula..

I bought similac adavance early shield at BJ's tonight for $28.
Amazon: $1.11/Oz
Bj's: $0.88/Oz

A premium of ~25%.

I'm a prime subscriber too, I was hoping it'd work out with free shipping. Rating: 1 / 5

Found cheaper pricing at a couple of local stores and 2 of the 6 tubs had busted tops from good ‘ol UPS doing a number on them. I will just buy from local supermarket from now on.

The best part of this transaction is the lack of shipping costs. If I had to pay shipping I could not buy from Amazon. I feel that some shipping costs I have experienced are really a method of increasing the cost of the item.
