Thanks everyone for their input. My FreeStyle FREEDOM Lite does have a port for connection -- but the stereo mini to USB cable is $35

--Are you KIDDING ME?!! What a joke.

Thanks again, everybody! Bayer Contour will likely get my business or that company that has the rotating 10strip DISK -- I like that concept and found the discs online for $30 or so for 5 disks of 10 strips each..
