We give S Enfamil Gentlease because it worked and we're afraid to switch, but my nephew took Walmart (Parents Choice, I think?) until they switched him to whole milk at 12 months. He had TERRIBLE reflux and it worked for them. I think they used the soy...? I was planning on using it too until we started the Gentlease and she took to it so well (of course, right? way more expensive!). Parents Choice is less expensive than Target, I believe.

@wheres_c: I can't help with the formula question, but just wanted to say I'm so jealous that you can walk to Target! That'd be so dangerous for me!

I loved Costco's formula (I'd buy two containers at a time to save fuel), my costco is 40 minutes away! It can be a little foamy, I was given the advice of buying a Dr. Brown's formula pitcher and mixing it in that. I loved doing it that way, pre-made ready to go formula with no clumps and no foam, yes please

We used the Costco formula and had no problems with it. I switched him over cold turkey from the Enfamil samples we got from the hospital. I would go to Costco once a month and get a big box of diapers, wipes and 3 cans of formula and it would last me until my next trip.

@wheres_c: oh no! i do not want to say i told you so...lots of people do well on the target brands, just not our LOs. hope you found something that works!

I use Enfamil & BRU formula.
The BRU formula is comparable to enfamil and I'll do 50/50. Basically alternating days. My doc said this was ok because I brought in the BRU formula and he compare the vitamin %s and said that BRU is the exact same as Enfamil. I don't think I could move him 100% to store brands , ever, but I do 50/50.
The 27.99 container of enfamil = 16.99 BRU container and is almost always on sale for 9.99. Plus you can use BRU VIB points to save 10%.
