Trying to Get Pregnant

Digital ovulation tests

I used the CBE Digital Ovulation tests when I got pregnant with DD. I'm low on Wondfos and I think I geared up to O but didn't, so I ran to the store to possibly pick up some CBE Digital tests. OMFG, $34.99 for 7 tests??????? I didn't pay that much back in 2009. That is outrageous!

Do you pay that much for the digital OPKs?

  • I know...it's ridiculous. I can't see paying that much...I use Wondfos

  • I pay about that much for the 20 pack, but I live in Tennessee, so things are a little cheaper.

  • I just bought a pack of 7 for either $25 or $35.. Can't remember.  But either way expensive!!  And the only reason why I bought those is because this cycle we our timing our IUI based off the + so I want to make sure its a clear yes or no.

  • It was for the 7. I double checked because I was like WTF? I swore I paid like $19.99 back in 2009.

    Guess I'll put another order in for wondfos.


  • And this is exactly why I don't use the OPK digis. I can't imagine peeing on that much money.

    I really hope your RE is doing more monitoring than just OPKs.

    That is the cost here for the 20 pack. Are you sure that is only the 7 where you live and not the 20?

    ETA walmart.com has the 20 pack for $35. Shipping is cheap too.

    The 7 pack on the Oregon coast is going for $34.99. I couldn't even bring myself to touch the box.

    I'm never moving to Oregon.

    I kept telling myself the same thing...

  • They used to be a little over 20 on amazon for a 20 pack. Not anymore. I looked the other day. I think they were like 35.

    I admit, in a desperate moment, I have paid the 35 in a store for the 7pack.

  • I usually pay $27 for a pack of 20.  I used a $10 off coupon that comes in the box. 

    I guess I did pay $37 or so for the first box but the box of 20 usually lasts me about 6-8 months.

  • I haven't used them in forever BUT when I did, I would buy digitals off of Amazon...much cheaper. And not having to squint and constantly post pics of sticks I've peed on on the bump? Totally worth it.

    Same here... I think some like to pee on sticks more than I do.
