Message: <blockquote data-quote="jopar" data-source="post: 115888" data-attributes="member: 11712">The good old BM strips, yep used to cut them in 2 or 3, while I was pregnant I had a loan meter (the brick) still took 2 minutes to read  :roll:   I brought my own when I had to return the loan one, at a cost of £150 (zero VAT) the batteries were camera batteries that cost £8 to replace.. Back in there early 90's a tube of 50 BM sticks cost £19.40 each, so when you think about it, yes our modern tests strips are sort of expensive, but compared to earnings back in the 90's and the cost of the BM strips, perhaps not as bad as we thought..</blockquote>
