They are slightly more sensitive than ones available in the stores so you can get your BFP sooner and they are oh so much cheaper.

I got some that are 10 mIU @ webwomb.com. 5 tests for $13. I also ordered a ttc kit @ early-pregnancy-tests.com. It was about $35 and it included 50 (yes, FIFTY) OPK's and 15 (fifteen) HPT's. They are slightly less sensitive at 20 mIU. (I also got my pre-seed there...) CBE non-digi's are 25 mIU. Everything came within a couple days of ordering and was very discreet in the mailbox. I've also heard e-bay is great for hpt's but i've never tried that.

It's hard to justify poas so often when you're paying $13 for 2 tests but I feel way less guilty about poas 8 - 10 days per cycle when they're so cheap.

Yes, I have 50 cheapies. Well 49 since I wasted one, but I really want to use a CBE non digi bad. Last month it was the first test to detect my bfp way earlier than the other brands. I mostly got the cheapies so I could pee on them after I get my bfp. I was a total spaz and since I've had 2 early losses in a row now I know I will likely be a spaz again. Besides I have been known to pee on more than one test in a day and the cheapies help with my afternoon and evening needs to pee on something.
