Hello,
I just want to inform any of you out there looking for meters and don't quite have the money for it? It's easy! When I was diagnosed, I received a meter from the hospital that was broken! I e-mailed multiple companies, and here are the ones who responded:
www.Accu-chek.com (the customer service is wonderful! Just explain your situation, and they will allow you to pick one, ANY KIND FOR FREE!)
www.Bayer.com (access the diabetes part of it, request a meter, you can receive a contour or breeze 2 for FREE!!)
www.Onetouchgold.com or
www.Lifescan.com (same as before, they'll offer you a One Touch Ultra 2 or Ultra Mini for FREE!!)
Contacting any one of these companies are happy to oblige
Although, Accu-chek by far is the best, they sent me a Compact Plus, along with (after requesting it,) 30 extra needles, and 51 test strips, FOR FREE!! Enjoy, I hope this helps!!
