Last night as I was writing down my shopping list for this week’s groceries shopping, I realized that I spend a hefty amount on my kids’ formula milk and diapers every month. My 2 older kids used to drink premium formula milk during their younger days. Now they drink regular formula as to not be so taxing on our pockets. Baby is still drinking premium formula as she used to be a fussy eater and she is still underweight. Her appetite has improved now and she’s also eating more now that she has more teeth. I will soon switch her to regular formula too.
Just the other day, I bought a box of store-brand fresh milk to try and to my surprise, it tasted just the same as other private brands. Ever since the global economy went down hill, I have been buying many store-brand products. I think store-brand products are comparable to private label brands and they cost only a fraction of the price of private label brands. Consumer Reports have been urging parents to save money on baby formula by purchasing store brands such as Parent’s Choice at retailers. Did you know that all infant formula sold in the U.S. must meet the same basic nutrient requirements specified by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration?
According to the PLMA Consumer Research Report on Recession, Recovery & Store Brands, many consumers have switched to store-brands during the recession. The findings are interesting. 62% of consumers plan to buy more Store Brand products as they deal with the tough economy. 8 of 10 supermarket shoppers see no improvement in the economy and 40% say things have actually gotten worse in recent months. Shoppers who identify themselves as frequent buyers of store brands stand at 57%. Almost all of the shoppers who switched to a Store Brand are happy with their new choice and I must say that I am also one very satisfied consumer of Store Brand products!
Do you use Store Brand products too?
