The strips were called micro fil but they have dropped that name.

The strips are superior  in the small sample needed and the
"sucking" up of the blood. They do take a bit longer to read.
They are pushing hard to get the meters out

If I wanted any certain meter I would call and ask
for a free one to try. I do  not think it would hurt to
mention the diabetic group. and the publicity it
might get if it worked out well

I just ran out of strips and am using another meter now.
I ordered strips and they will come on the 24th.  We need
to tell others that you can get strips at about half cost
from phone order firms. .  Meter can be secured free.
Do not pay for the meter.  Call and ask for a freebie
to try.  Ted knows of good sources for strips..

I have always found the meter reps to be
nice people that are well trained.
Approach them in a nice way and say you are a
regular  on  this diabetic group which has wide
coverage.

I remember Charles Evans could get items
for us. many times. I am still using the finger
stick item he gave me.

I got the same sort of thing by mail offering me a free Aviva *or* Compact
Plus. I guess they're trying to boost market share....

I have an Advantage I got from the VA. They also will give me 50 strips for
90 days, free. I don't bother. I use One Touch Ultra or Ultrasmart.

I made my correction posting before I saw your correction.  Did they
*cold call* you?  Or, did you use accu chek products before?  I wonder
how they got your info.
