I think I'm going to break down and buy some OPKs and I want to get some strips to save money. I usually buy from early-pregnancy.tests.com, but discovered Saveontests.com today. They are less expensive for the items and even with no free shipping it would end up beign less expensive, but I have no idea how long it will take to get them since they'll be mailed form Canada. Usually it only takes a couple days from e-p-t.com because they ship same day. Anyone have experience with both or saveontests? Is there any difference in quality? How long did it take to get your order from saveontests if you live in the U.S.? Thanks for any input!
ETA: Where do you get your cheapie tests strips?

Ok, nevermind. I just ordered from Babywishes.org. lol.
At first I thought doing the saliva microscope plus charting plus OPKs would be overkill, but then I was told there was no such thing when TTC.  It's better than wondering if I could've done more!
Yay! I'm getting so excited!!!

I am only using saveontests now. They are a lot cheaper, and my main concern was shipping not being as fast, but it wasn't much of a difference.
And I don't use test strips, they don't seem to be as accurate from my experience. I only use the midstream tests, which are a big more pricey, but worth it to me.

The last time I ordered I bought them on Ebay. They came from England, they didn't charge me shipping, and I got them in 5 days. I just tried to find the link, but I've lost it, sorry. Good luck with the ones you bought.
