There are many brands of baby milk powder sold in Singapore: Similac and Isomil series by Abbott, Enfa series by Meadjohnson, Friso, Nestle Nan series, Bellamy, Karihome goat milk, Aptamil and Dumex by Dannone. All these are established brand and it comes with a price: baby formula milk in Singapore was sold at a
much higher price compared to other countries in the world. I can only help you
to buy cheaper than normal selling in supermarket or online.
First, it is not a good idea
to go to baby fair to buy baby milk powder. It is not a good investment of time
and transportation cost as the saving is not significant compared to your time
spent and the transportation cost, especially if you stay in the north or west which is far away from common baby fair destination.
Second, you should buy online
only when there is significant discount like more than 10%. This is because you
have to buy large quantity in order to enjoy free delivery. You usually have 2%
to 4% discount for members when you buy it at supermarket, provide that you
have the membership. Online stores usually do not provide time-independent
discount.
Third, you may not need to
wait for any promotion for stage 1 formula as retailers, distributors and
manufacturers are not allowed to promote or market stage 1 formula milk as
instructed by the Health Promotion Board under the Ministry of Health.
Fourth, you should consider
buy from Malaysia, Products sold in Malaysia are similar to those sold in
Singapore, but at a much cheaper price. If you buy from Malaysia, you can enjoy
at least 30% discount. Please note that AVA has a restriction on the amount of
processed food that you can bring into Singapore.
Furthermore, you should
visit baby milk powder promotion to check the latest
baby milk powder promotion from all supermarkets or online stores in Singapore.
Also, you should join the
membership club of the manufacturer, you can get the free sample of 400g in
some cases. You can visit free sample baby milk powder to request sample. You
can also enjoy very good discount on some special occasion like birthday of
your baby, national day of Singapore. The manufacturer may also inform you when
there is a promotion through newsletter.
Lastly, you should try to
practice breastfeeding. If your baby is fully on breast milk, the saving can be
more than 2000 a year. Of course, the benefits of breastfeeding is not just about cost saving.
