Blood Glucose testing strips

[sue1309]

Could anyone please tell me where I can buy the cheapest Contour Next strips? My GP will only give me 50 a month, and that's just not enough...I can sometimes test up to 3 or 4 times a day. I've asked and asked my GP but she says it all comes down to money, which I feel is unfair!! She's told me that as a T2 I don't need to test as often as I do, but if I know what my BMs are through the day I feel more in control of my diabetes, which can only be a good thing, surely? X

Treat yourself to a Codefree and you will save money over time rather than buying expensive strips. Still accept the ones your G.P. gives you though.
There are some codes to use if you buy Codefree strips in bulk. Someone will know what they are.
