Dollar store hpt...what's your opinion

I know they work...but, is it good that you can buy a test for $1.25?  I use them obsessivley because they cost so little, but is it adding to my disappointment?  I know that on day 18 I'm not going to see two lines, so why do I test?  Because I can for $1.25!  I think I'm going crazy.

Anyone else have this problem?!

  • If you are gonna POAS, you might as well save some $ by buying a cheapie. Have you used these?

    https://www.amazon.com/Wondfo-Pregnancy-Test-Strips-25-count/dp/B0002YIQEQ/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1301359566&sr=8-1

    Talk about cheap, and they are supposed to be among the most HCG sensitive tests out there. I've never gotten a + so I wouldn't know about the previous statement from personal experience.

    GL!
