Hi has anyone else had issues buying these cartons? Ocardo have advised me they are no longer stocking the product I'm waiting to hear from Hipp directly but have noted Asda don't stock them, Morrisons are restricting purchases and Tesco are also out of stock. Does anyone know if they are discontinuing these? TIA

Could be a change of packaging? DD had these and I used to have to go to a couple of different supermarkets sometimes to get some as they always seemed to be out of stock on the shelves.

Have you tried Boots?

I had similar problems a few years ago, found it was easier (and a lot cheaper) to buy in bulk online and have them delivered. I used to use the big box to mix it myself during the day and then save the cartons for days out/overnight.

Thanks June I know they have recently changed the packaging and it seemed to affect supply but that was about 2 months ago now.

Thanks Peach where did you source them online? We are currently renovating so I'm having to use cartons a lot more due to restricted kitchen access hence the desperate search!!!

Sorry June forgot to say I have tried Boots same issue. I'm minded to look at HiPP direct but the carton price seems very high about 88p a carton! Not good for mat leave pay Hmm

I think Amazon do them in bulk as we looked into that but by that time DD was only having them sporadically whenever I wasn’t around to bf.

They are in stock online at Superdrug.

Thanks June and SClub I have DH online to check now! I triple checked Boots online and they are definitely not stocking it at the moment unfortunately Hmm

Have you tried direct from Hipp? We order our formula in bulk from them and find it much easier as stock in supermarket seems to be really inconsistent.

Off to HiPP direct I go I thought Sainsbury’s had saved the day - ordered a bulk order of 50 cartons - without any prior warning delivery chap has just turned up with 15!! Ffs

We recently switched to Hipp Organic and had the same problem! Wanted to bulk buy the pre made so we always had enough. Waitrose was our first place to stock up but they said that it was taken off of their system so they assumed it would be stopping being stocked however in our local store it seems to have reappeared recently! Initially we just ordered direct from Hipp the link is on their website. Fast delivery and no problems at all! We always make a point of looking in supermarkets when we are out and grab it if it is there but it’s great knowing we can always order direct! I was hoping they would be changing the packaging as the cartons are awkward to use!

I’ve had trouble getting hold of them too. Saw some in sainsburys and stocked up then they reappeared in my local Waitrose after no having been on a shelves for a few weeks.

We go away next month so I may order a stash direct from hipp.

Charley I hate the cartons too-always have to have scissors with me!
