thought id ask before I went around to the different pharmacies... anyone know of a shop that supplies these in the under 1000 baht range?

if you are in BKK you can buy in Bumrungrad

You will be lucky, the cheapest I have seen is 2500 in Watsons. BTW the strips are very expensive in Thailand 350 Baht for 10, or 560 Baht for 25 health care isnt cheap

I would try 'Peera Pharmacy' in Ratchadamnoen, the first one on the left hand side when you come from Thapae Gate. I don't know the price for the tester, but they sell me my strips (Accu-Check Performa) @ 450 baht per 25 strips.

$20 is over 600 baht, sounds expensive!

not compared to 2500... im talking about the monitor. not the strips.

Don't worry about the price of the monitor. It's a false economy. Check on the price of the strips. Spending a bit more on a monitor to enable you to buy the cheapest strips is the better option. You only buy one monitor. You buy lots of strips.
