I’m gangrenously green with envy, because I’m not part of Bayer’s Northern Hemispheric conspiracy. If you ( @tim) are unwilling to adopt your given USBaby, send it south via stork (they nest in the marshes just out of town). My first meter was a freebie-Bayer I got from a doctor-friend; couldn’t use it very long, ’cause the strips were too expensive…but at my last visit to the metropolitan pharmacy I frequent, Bayer Contour strips were the cheapest on the block, so Gimme,gimme, gimme!
