Carlos,
wouldnt it be worth buying a tester for which the strips fit? Guess would be a lot cheaper than 100 strips and you will have a back up?.

Are these the one's with a code number? I don't think they sell these type meters new any more. I have one but I get my strips on prescription.

I have a freedom lite I was given by the nurse at my doctors surgery but have swapped to a compactplus that my sister gave me. I find it to be a lot less messing around and less steps etc although it is a bigger machine depends on what your requirements are I guess if I was on the move and had to test more I'd prolly prefer the lite I think.
