What people don't realize when they look for a pregnancy test is your not paying for the reliability of the test your paying for the name brand on the box. So it doesn't matter if you buy it from the 99 cent only store or if you buy the expensive $20.00 digital test at the walmart it will still work the same. If you have spent so much in pregnancy test its because your not pregnant or its to early to find out. Don't test the day after because it wont show up obviously. It can take up to 5 days for the sperm to reach an egg that's why so many die before they get there. So just wait don't test so early. Or you can go to the doctor and get a blood test.

Sorry honey but its always better safe than sorry.........

I wont use anything other than an EPT MAYBE a ClearBlueEasy ...... theres always the two in ones that kinda saves you some bux but in the long run its all worth it.......because as stated before.........

Better safe than sorry...........

You wouldnt want to get a cheap-o and be excited that you got a positive result and consciously give yourself pregnancy symptoms (which you can do bc sometimes its a state of mind) and then come to find out in a month or so after you've made your appointment at the doctor that you in fact are not pregnant and be disappointed............

Look on the bright side one day allll that money wasted will be worth it......I know you dont see it that way now because it seems like you're testing often or spending frivilously but hey........you're not the first and definitely not the last...........

Keep the faith..........in due time........... ;) Good Luck

I am pregnat with # 5 and have found dollar store tests some of the most reliable!! - Really. I usually go to Dollar General. Sometimes, I splurged for the $4 test.

My Dr told us to use dollar store PG tests..... because I have an anxiety condition which causes Hbp, I have to test often, so we can change my meds before its too late.... shge told me to save myself the money and use the cheaper tests, the only real difference is usually the cheaper ones don't carry the garuntee as far as quality goes (if one is defective- no results show up, you can't take it back for a new one) they all test for the same hormone levels

Yes, they are just as reliable as the name brand ones. The FDA would not let them be sold over the counter if they where not held up to a certain standard. Besides there are truth in advertising laws. They cannot claim to be 99.98% reliable if they are not. So save your money and trust the test.

If you really want a reliable result, go to the doctor and pee in a cup instead of wasting your money on cheap store bought pregnancy tests!

Pretty much so. My niece used a pg test from a dollar store and it was right for her.

Do not waste your money on the expensive one. I used the Dollar Store tests for both my pregnancies and for my "I think I'm pregnant" testing... very accurate.

Yes if you are pregnant and have missed a period most any test is reliable. Take it in the morning and good luck!

I'd buy some wholesale from a medical site. I picked some up from ebay, a medical wholesaler from Canada, paid like 10 bucks and got about 15 tests. They worked great.

Originally i got ovulation strips from Ebay. They worked like a charm too.
