    I went to my local Tesco's today to get more baby milk and because Cow &
    Gate are changing their packaging all the others ones (the one's in boxes) are all half price. It's right across the range, Premium, Plus, all the organic range, Omneo Comfort and all the follow on milk.
    I've stocked up seeing as it's basically 2 for the price of 1 and i've got a tub to put it in.
    Get down there tomorrow and see if they are doing it.

    They are also doing it online as well so use those Tesco vouchers and get a great saving ( I had to get some more when I got home as well !)

    Thanks

    I went to 3 Tescos and all had run out- but there is still milk available online. I got 5 boxes of Aptamil follow on milk for £2.97 each. Excellent when it should be about £7.

    it applys to the baby milk aswell its not an offer its reduced to clear


    reduced to clear still counts as a promotion by law

    only milk stated as being suitable to be fed over age of 6months can be promoted or price reduced or have special offers



    on eof the many the reasons why I believe this law was put in place was to prevent promotion of 'first milks' so that the true cost of feeding was not masked and so that parents did not go over to formula feeding at a lower cost and then struggle to buy formula when price went up.
    Baby Milk Action is a non-profit organisation which aims to save lives and to end the avoidable suffering caused by inappropriate infant feeding.

    Just as a follow-up I've reported my local Tesco to Trading Standards. Hopefully they will take action against them, though my past experience of them is not overly positive!

    Keep an eye open as more old stock seems to be appearing...

    I thought I had missed the boat, as the two Tescos I frequent either had empty shelves or the new packaging, but the Uxbridge store had Aptamil Forward today at £2.78 a box.

    Our store cupboard is now bulging... and I have arms like an Orang-Utan after carrying 14 boxes of the stuff home.
