Just wondering if someone has the details..
The cheapest I have managed to find the karicare newborn formula is $16 something at Woolies. Since we are going through a tin every 3 days.. I was wondering if I could get it cheaper than that.
Thanks

Can you message me to please, with the fostering I can some times have 3 or more on formula.
The discount info I have is only for multiple birth families. If you are fostering twins though I imagine you will be able to access the discount.
The most current info I have is below for anyone interested

I never paid the $11, but I have heard that other people pay, must depend on the location.
I also never paid delivery AND they deliver at lightening speed. Order one day, delivery arrives the next. I'm not in the middle of a big city or anything, either.

Ditto. From memory, the cut off is 12pm for next day delivery - so if you need it quick order in the morning! I even got a delivery on a Saturday!? weirdly.
I pay delivery to Victoria.
I didn't use this service, however negotiated a price per carton with our Pharmacy. We paid about $12.50-$13.00 a tin for DeLact (we didn't have a script - funnily enough as I just read there that if you had a script it could be cheaper, our paed told us the only script ones were the proper allergy ones - can't think of what they are called... oh well... well in the past now! lol!).
Anyway, whenever I needed it I just rang the Pharmacy and they had it ready for me the next day.
