I found HPT's at Dollarama today. The name on the box is Pro-Care.

You have to pee in a cup and use a dropper to transfer your pee onto the stick. Blah

The box didn't say how sensitive the tests are - just that they are OVER 99% accurate

What kind does your local dollar store carry?

The kind at my dollar store are new directions I think. You have to pee in a cup with them but they are very sensitive.

I'm not sure about my dollar Store. But the Dollar Tree near me carries New Choice pregnancy tests. That's the test that gave me the BFP with the pregnancy that I lost.

I'm not sure...I never paid any attention because...they were a buck! And, I had read so many bfp stories of women who used them before AF was due.

I googled them...It looks like they are sensitive at 25 miU. That's comparable to most of the more expensive ones. I got my first BFP with a Dollar store test (not ProCare) before FRER...

See how they work and report!!! KUP and G/L

I am not sure, but there should be a # on the box that you can call and ask their customer service--- Let us know if you find out.

I honestly think they are probably all the same test, just put into different boxes.

Dollar General here sells HPTs that are literally named "Baby Test." Wonder who received the genius award for that name

ours are called New Choice and they sound like the same ones you have. i've had ones where they are bigger tests and ones where they are very skinny tests. so they can be different in Look but probably not sensitivity!
