Does Wal-Mart still sell an A1C home test kit?  If so, is it still
considered accurate enough?

If not, where else would I find one?

Walgreen's close by where I live in CA, had them up to about four months
ago, dunno if they still do, but you have to ask at the pharmacy, since
they keep them refrigerated.

walmart sells the Choice.  it's accuracy is suspect.  I've gotten 2
decent readings and one that was way too low.

If you do a Google search for "home A1c Tests"...you'll find many online
and brick and mortar resources.

I got one at Sav-Ons once, and about to go look for it again soon.
(I asked at RiteAid once and they went "huh"?)
Let me know if you have Savons where you are and I'll let you know if
they still carry it ;-)

OK, they still sell it ("Choice-DM"), and it's $19.99.

I used the Wal*Mart ("Choice').  It was right on - 2 days after the doc's
test.
