Can you get all of your wic formula on one day? We will be traveling out of state for a funeral, and I would like to get all of the formula now. Does anyone know if this will be ok? Thanks.

As long as your dates on the coupons are valid, there shouldn't be a problem. Mine are spread out for 3 months. And there is a date period on my coupons when I can use them, etc..

When I used to get WIC I also got all my formula at one time for the month. Much easier that way.

this is what i do.. i get all 10 cans for teh month at once... when i start getting solids this month i will get all of those at once too.. makes it easier to not have to run to the store every week to get it

I get 3 checks to use for the month and I get my checks every 3 months (so I get 3 month's worth at a time....dont know if it is the same for everyone).

anyways, i use all 3 of our checks for that month at the same time (when we do huge grocery shopping)....

so, as long as you are using them within the dates on the checks, you can use it all up at once if you want to.

WIC allows it, but some stores may have a limit especially around the first of the month. My local store did have a limit of 2 wic checks of formula at a time because they used to run out my the afternoon on the first. Either check with your store, or go to a couple different stores.
