[QUOTE="Bluetit1802, post: 1043005, member: 94045"] You don't need a sharps bin for meter lancets. It is up to you how many times you use a single lancet. Some people use them once. Others use them a few times, others use them a lot of times. Personally I use them until they start to hurt because they have blunted. You can put them in a small container and dispose of them sensibly in the household rubbish. Test strips can only be used once. My strips come in a small plastic tub, about the size of a medicine bottle. I take the label off the empty tubs and use those for disposal. The meter with the cheapest strips is the Codefree. Have a look here. Many of us use this.

The codes are 5 packs 264086 10 packs 975833 [/QUOTE]
