Dollar Store HPT???

Hi~ I see alot of people use HPT from the dollar store. Are these very accurate? Do most dollar stores carry them? Is there a particular brand that is recommended?

Thanks!!!

They are pretty good, the Dollar Tree has them $1 and I've seen them at the Family Dollar but there they have them at $2.50. Still not bad at all...

What I've learned is HPT are all about the same. The only difference is some can read the hcg level at a lower level. For example, some can read once the hcg hits 25 (probably the more expensive) and som can read only once the hgc hits 50 (probably the less expensive). I would say if you testing early, maybe 12-14 dpo, you would want the ones that read at 25. The box should say.
