safe disposal of lances?

Well asked in 4 chemists and was made to feel like some awful drug addict. Only the final pharmacy were nice and understanding and sold me a sharps bin for £1.47 AND gave me the number to call when it was full
 
My local pharmacist was lovely and gave me a box without any problems after I explained I was self-funding my testing (T2). He thought that since the DSN wouldn't give me testing supplies then a free sharps box was the least he could do :)
 
A good pharmacist can really reduce burden on GP's. I honestly think they should be used more
