Since I have been out of the TTC loop for awhile I have no OPK's or HPT's. Where do you buy yours at?
I use to get the dollar store $1 test mainly and then have back ups of digitals and the first response test. I got a postive at only 9 DPO with my first response with my daughter and got a Postive with a digital the next day at 10 dpo. SO I know those test are great but I am looking for some good cheap ones as well.

I buy offline from Ebay or Dollar Store or Walmart. It just depends what kind of test I want.

The wondfo pink handle tests seem to be the cheapie of choice and I have observed girls getting the same darkness of line as the answer brand with these.
Wondfo Pregnancy Test Strips, 25-count - eBay (item 130476880408 end time Mar-19-11 14:00:43 PDT)
25 of them for $5.60 - at that price you can poas to your hearts content and not feel guilty! Much cheaper than the dollar store tests and better!

Well I did order some from Early Pregnancy Tests and Ovulation Predictor Kits for Home Use already. I realized after I order them that I remember their test not being very good.
I could kick myself. Oh well live and learn. I use to order from babyhopes before. I am going to buy some OPK's today at the store cause I can't wait. Thinking about buying the digital ones but not sure I want to spend that much.

Amazon typically. But if I feel the need for FRER's or CBE digitals then Target.

I buy mine on Amazon too. I get 40 OPKs and 10 HPTs for $10.00. I've been using them for the past 6 months and they work great.

I use Amazon too and get the Wondfo OPKs and HPTs. OPKs are blue and HPTs are pink, and there are combo packs if you want to go that route. This is my first cycle using the Wondfo OPKs and I haven't gotten a + with them yet (which is normal for me at this point in my cycle), but my - ones look perfectly normal, so no complaints yet!

Well I scored at CVS Friday. They had a box of 20 OPK Answer brand for $9.50 and then it comes with a $7 mail in rebate so they end up only costing, $3! Can't beat that!! I am happy.
