As families across the country struggle to find formula for their infants, some retailers have started limiting the number formulas you can purchase.
Baby formula out-of-stock rates nationwide hit 31% in April with some states having rates as high as 40%, data from Datasembly reported.
The New York Times reported that CVS and Walgreens are limiting customers to three baby formula products per purchase. Target is limiting online purchases of formula to four items per transaction. “Across the U.S., we're prioritizing production of infant formula products to help replenish the supply in the market. And, this year, we will more than double the amount of Similac Advance powder formula we're bringing in from our manufacturing facility in Cootehill, Ireland," Abbott said.
