Thanks for the great info, Joanne! I was able to exchange my Avent bottles for BPA-free bottles without a fuss.(NOTE: they will only do the exchange "bottles for bottles" though). I went in with 6 complete bottles, and left with only 3 (the BPA-free bottles are double the price of the old ones). Had to pay the difference.

Still, it's good to have this option and be on the safe side =) I hope all items with BPA get phased out sooner than end of the year..
