[QUOTE="Robbity, post: 2106659, member: 93179"] Yes - for me a meter has been a vital (and self-funded) tool. Meters in themselves can be fairly cheap to buy but the test strips generally tend to be expensive. Hoever, [USER=400972]@Rachox[/USER] has some useful information on meters that use cheaper test strips (which, with apologies, I've lifted from one of her posts: [I]Here’s some info on meters, and to be clear I have no commercial connections with any of the companies mentioned.
