Just a quick question on where people buy theirs and how much they go for. I checked the grocery stores around my area and no-one carried them. I looked in the health food sections and pills areas but I wasn't able to find them. Should I just go to Health Food stores or Vitamin outlets or GNC?

Just about any drugstore I've ever gotten them at, I had to ASK for them at th counter. Like they're a controlled substance. Geez!

Your best bet is a pharmacy or department store pharmacy stocked with the diabetic supplies, either on the shelf or behind the counter .. so you might have to ask. No prescription required.

I have found them at Sam's Club, ours has a Pharmacy. As already mentioned, you have to ask because they are behind the counter.
