Re: Free Lancets

You might want to contact a local diabetes education program, perhaps throught a hospital or the local ADA and donate them that way...

Re: Free Lancets

You maybe able to donate them to any free clinic in your area. I believe they will gladly accept them.

Re: Free Lancets

Diana it's a very bad idea to post your personal e-mail.  At the very least you could get on a bunch of kooky mailing lists.

 

This is also an old post, and those lancets are probably long gone.

 

Please edit and remove your e-mail address.

There are many people here that change lancets every six months.
