>I've taken to checking the clearance
section at local stores looking for clearanced
bottles, and have bought a few dozen that way.<
Just as a point of interest [not commenting on the poster above] , if I, or
colleagues see tins of formula in the discount pile at the supermarket we
have complained as the WHO code is clear about money off and inducements to
sell. My understanding is that the WHO/UNICEF code of marketing of
breastmilk substitutes covers bottles and teats in the same way as formula
and foods sold for babies under the age of 6 months. Wouldn't this type of
discounting of bottles [or teats] be a violation of the code?
