Lancets

On lancet overload here... Even when I say to not send them, my supply company sends them. Could sure use a way to get them off my hands without throwing them away. If you pay out of pocket and they are worth the cost to ship, PM me. I don't even know how much they cost, to be honest...

Good on you solox! No good to me coz I'm on the other side of the world - but I bet someone will appreciate these

If you don't find a taker, keep Insulin for life in mind. Someone in a country where they get no financial support would certainly appreciate a gift like that.

I got a bazillion of them. I have them boxed up, and one of these days, I'll be taking them over to my doctor's office. He works at a free clinic one day a week, so I'm sure he can make good use of them.

In my town we have a place that provides food, buys meds, pays some bills for families having financial problems, etc. They welcome things like this since they are still packaged and never go out of date. Perhaps there is a place like that near you. If your church provides for the needy, they may know someone who could use them. You could also post a note on the bulliten board at church. Some of the church members may know of someone with D that has no insurance. Don't throw them away. With more and more people being diagnoised with D every day someone can use them.
