[QUOTE="kay957, post: 126708, member: 17936"] I sympathise with you about Tescos. I got a new meter and had run out of strips and needed to buy some, however one tescos priced me (excluding VAT) £11, when I enquired at another Tesco Chemist 2 miles away they said they were £22, I don't know who is right? so I got a prescription from my GP to get some strips, they are absolutley a rip off. I think the makers of the strips corner the market everytime, they give you free machines and then expect us to get a new prescription for the strips, however, the GP's mostly see the cost of them and ask if we can get a cheaper machine. It will be a great day when a manufacturer will invent a stripless machine but then they won't make much money out of us diabetics? [/QUOTE]
