I really dont know about specific websites, but I will tell you that when my daughter was a baby, I called one of the major makers of formula, because my daughters dr was recommending that I get her on a low iron formula due to a medical condition. I was really just calling to find out if they made one of these, and the woman offered to send me 2 free cans just so I could try them out. Perhaps you could call the different makers of formula and pretend that you are just trying to compare the different brands out there and see if they are willing to send you some free formula.

I never tried this, but a friend of mine said she did and it worked. She said she called the different brands of diapers, such as Pampers, Huggies, White Cloud, and complained that she had bought a pack of their diapers "because she had heard such good things about them", and that about 1/2 the diapers in the pack ripped when she tried to put them on and she was very dissapointed in the quality of their diapers. She said every company she called sent her coupons for a free pack of diapers. A bit decetful, but hey every little bit helps doesn't it?

I know this doesnt exactly answer your question, but: A lot of communities have survival centers, soup kitchens, community gardens, farmshares, and sort of co-op programs that you could join, perhaps. Then there are always the bargain-bins in grocery stores (dented cans and lightly banged up boxes, and very ripe produce).

I don't find many coupons for groceries that are entirely useful. It seems to me that most of the items are way overpriced to begin with (when compared to store-brands), and the products you get coupons for are not entirely nutritive anyhow (processed, high sodium, etc). I think you can get better buys in making meals from scratch (eg, rice and beans with peppers, tomatoes, avocado) rather than trying to hunt down coupons.

Formula is a different matter, however. I don't know much about it since I don't buy it yet, but I do know it is expensive. Maybe you could get it from a warehouse club like Costco or Sam's, especially if you join with a couple other parents?

I am not sure what your household income is but you can apply for WIC they provide your child with formula for a month and some juice depending on the age of your child. They also provide cereal too. You can also apply for foodstamps until things get alittle easier with the money situation. This isn't something that means you are poor or a horrible parent if you apply for these things. These are state provided companies that are there to help when money situations aren't what they used to be or what you want them to be. These can help you and your baby. Someone I know has one child and she gets for her and her husband $407 for food for the house a month and then she gets 8 cans of formula and also because her child is under 6months she gets 2 dozen eggs, juice,4gallons of milk, and one thing on unwrapped cheese every month from WIC. I would also try some food banks in your area. Good luck

Go directly to the manufacturers sites.
www.huggies.com
www.pampers.com
www.enfamil.com
www.similac.com
Those are just some examples

Another place that has coupons that I've found is www.womansday.com

And don't forget the Sunday newspaper is loaded with manufacturer coupons for tons of products. There's a website www.couponmom.com that helps you collect them then combine store sales on the same items to save even more.

Try this link, see if they have a site near you. They are legitimate. There are no forms, no qualifying, you can order as many of the main packs or teh side packs as you want. Hope is one nearby for you!

for formula, can you get WIC? it will give you a voucher for the formula. And that will help alot. In my state the income level is not that low for WIC, so almost everyone is eligible.
