Sorry to say they will cost you. Kroger and walmart has inexpensive meters and test strips. You may have to change. Most places have inexpamsive lancets that fit many types of lancet devices.

If you have a Walmart in your area they have a machine called Reli-on very accurate and 100 strips are only $17.00. I have checked that meter against more expensive meters and is always within a few points

You may have to buy a new meter that offers inexpensive strips. Walmart has a meter for $10.00 and 25 strips for about $6.00. Kroger stores are about the same. I just bought 25 strips a Kroger store for $7.00. Chain pharmacies sometimes have their own brands that are inexpensive.
