[blparent] Powder Formula question

[Jo Elizabeth Pinto]

Diapers.com is also a great way to go.  Low prices, free shipping on orders 
of $50 or more, and the products come right to your door.  Not just diapers, 
also formula and many other baby products.  Amazon has a similar program, 
but I don't know much about it.  Diapers.com has kirkland brand, which is 
Costco, and also Members Mark, which is Sam's Club.
