I work in a supermarket, and last night served a woman who, on realising it was not on special offer, returned newborn formula and bought stage 3 formula instead, as it was in the offer. Not my business, but I wondered, if the same child gets the milk, how much difference does it make? What is the difference?
I believe that newborn baby milk cannot be on special offer, to encourage breastfeeding. I wonder if the government considered the people who may have to risk their baby's health to save around £1.75 a tub.
I may have the entire wrong end of the stick, and the moment has passed now anyway, it just made me wonder and has stuck with me.
