  1. I managed to find a starter kit for Accu-Chek Instant to compare with. The kit, with 100 strips, is $50. Buying more strips is around 27 cents per strip. So it's cheaper than the Guide setup, but still more expensive than the ReliOn setup by a lot.

    Tempted to buy it and do more comparisons and testing.

  2. Accu-Chek Guide Me starter kit costs around $60 to $90. Test strips are 40 to 50 cents per strip.

    ReliOn Platinum is a rebranded Accu-Chek meter (Instant?) with Accu-Chek test strips (also Instant?). Starter kit is less than $20 and test strips are 18 cents per strip.

    If you're not sure about ReliOn's reliability, but trust Accu-Chek, this is a good cheap option.
