| | | Cool, I ordered one too. Those 10 strips should cover 1 day,lol
They could really at least put a few more strips in the boxes, even BD meters give you 25. |

It's ok Karen. I don't really need it if it doesn't work with my flash strips. It is just so nice you offered.

| | | I got a coupon to go get a Lite at the store. With no strips! And prescription required!
The kind pharmacist pretended I had a prescription called in and didn't make me go get one. |

Maybe they just want some marketing data?

| | | I got a coupon in the mail out of this, for the free meter. Took it in Friday to my pharmacy and got one. I like it so far. No coding = nice...... Regular Freestyle strips do NOT work with it. I got my prescription changed for it though.

| | | just bumping ths back to the top so others can order. I have already ordered one for me a T2 and using another screen name I ordered on for my daughter-in-law a T1. Since she had no insurance I know she can use the strips. |
