Hello!

When I had to buy pregnancy test last month we spend around $45 on them from the store up here. I could not see doing that every month I want to check when we are TTC.. And then on the OPK test.. they are $45 also and that comes with only 7 tests. We don't have Dollar Tree here .. and our other dollar stores don't carry stuff like this.
So I went to early pregnancy tests website and bought those tests from them and was wondering if they worked for anyone else?(the sticks ones you dip in the cup)

I could not find any photos here in this section with them.. most of you had the test from the dollar store. I would like to see some examples from these tests if you have them.


Thanks!
Candice

Hi,
Im Sara. I know that ovulation tests can be expensive so I started buying them on ebay. You can always find lots of them on there. I get like 30 internet cheapies for like 12 dollars and they work great for me. You can also find name brand ones on there for a lot cheaper than retail. I would def. check into it. I hope I helped.

Hello
I buy my OPKs off of ebay, you can get like 100 opks for about 30 dollars. Which is more and a lot less then what you can get. As for the earlypregnancytest.com, I just bought preseed and opks and hpt from there. I am waiting for them to come in so I cant help you until I get them in!

Thank you for letting me know about Ebay. I just looked and see there is someone here in Vancouver that sells them. Would be a lot quicker shipping if I were to buy from them. I bought from that earlypregnancy and it takes like 7-10 days to come to Canada. I will of already missed this O I think.. so we are BD every day/every other day just to make sure LOL.

I don't understand, what is wrong with the hpt from there?
They look the same as the ones my dr uses.

They're bad because of what Sherri said. The evaps on the cheap HPTs are ridiculous and they look just like positives. They even show up in the time limit, but are suuuuper faint. You can definitely see a line, but you can't tell if it really has color or is grey. We know they're evaps, though, because you can test "positive" on the cheap HPTs a million times and negative on every other test. AF always comes in the end, too.

Overall, I guess they're okay if you get a really strong positive, but if you get a faint line at all, I would just take it as a negative and retest until you see a dark, unmistakable line.
