Anyone else having the same problem as me? When I touch the side of the test strip with my blood it seems to move the strip slightly and turn the meter off. That means a new strip to try again, is this how they get us to buy more and more strips?

As Totsy says ring life scan and tell them there is a problem, also tell them about the wasted strips. Life scan are normally very good at sending replacement test strips as well.

Just an update.
emailed lifescan and told them what was happening, received a new meter today and it works perfectly. No more wasted test strips.
Thanks.
