[QUOTE="Professor_J, post: 1558662, member: 324123"] This This is one of the most aggravating parts of having diabetes -- test strip costs. Insurers SHOULD PAY FOR STRIPS and encourage patients to TEST OFTEN. This could defray insurance claims down the road. I AM IN THE USA (Washington DC) and CVS is a huge drugstore chain here. Last year they came out with their own tester and strips. I was wary at first but did simultaneous tests on my One Touch meter and CVS meter -/ nearly identical results. I just bought a package of 100 CVS strips for a sale price of $29 (USD). Normally they're $37.99. Even so, it's the best price I've found here. The ONE TOUCH ULTRA are insanely priced. I hope you can find a low cost alternative that produces reliable results. While an issue for another time, the COST OF INSULIN HAS SKYROCKETED. For current Intel and info I recommend @kellyclose founder of diaTribe in twitter. She's an excellent sounding board for our community. Godspeed.
