    You could always try and use it on formula, I doubt the SA would notice that bit in the T's and C's. It's just a case of trying one and being prepared to pay cash if they say no or leave it at the till as you hadn't noticed that bit in the T&C. I don't think they are allowed to promote formula as 'breast is best' - I'm not opening a debate but I think that's the reason why they say not on formula. (breast feeding didn't work for DD1 - she's 17, all A*s and A's in her GCSEs and a black belt at a martial art so she seems to have been ok on formula)

    DS1 refused to be fed like a normal baby so we had to move to formula. DS2 was hospitalised shortly after birth so he was formula fed for a week while he was there so no hope of breast feeding. I too don't want to open a debate but I don't understand the stance on this. Why on earth would I pay £9 for a tub of formula plus bottles, teats, washing up liquid and the cost of buying and running a steriliser if I could breast feed for free? There are plenty of people like me who FF and not by choice so not getting deals on formula really annoys me. They can discount bottles which can be used for expressed milk or formula and that's ok :mad:

    Quick question:

    We have some decent sized vouchers that I was going to kill by getting baby formula. The voucher itself doesn't exclude it but in the T&Cs it says vouchers can't be used to purchase infant formula. Has anyone any comment to make as otherwise I'm at a loss at to what to buy that isn't perishable.

    I have a couple of times bought 1 toothbrush and + i tin sma dtd £16.00 = One very happy baby :D

    SS link in 1st post (stebiz) has tabs at the bottom, 2nd post (scotsgirl) has tabs at the top.

    and that's even more illogical, they're pointing to the same SS! Oh I do love the weirdness of googledocs

    You cant buy infant first formula but can buy the 6mth plus one or follow on, I have got aptamil 6mth one with voucher. Its the same for cc points dont get them on first milk due to advertising laws against first formula milk somet do withh breastfeeding!!
    The art of being happy is to be satisfied with what you have :)
