Right, this month I will be purchasing many internet cheapie tests to avoid Boots getting so much of my cash lol.

Any recommendations?

I have seen those ones on eBay that claim to pick up really low hcg (10) amounts but have heard they are a bit rubbish?

I bought a few in the Pound shop. A box containing two for £1.

Showed a faint line when I was a day overdue.

I bought the strip ones from ebay claiming to detect 10mg of hcg and they were absolute rubbish. I didn't get a BFP until several days after my period was due. I ended up buying a CB digital the day after AF was due and got a BFP, still not one on the cheapy tests though... not sure if the CB would have given a BFP earlier.

I would just go for some decent ones, or if not buy a Boots or supermakrets own, they're only a couple of pounds each.

Decent ones don't allow me to pee on them every day lol so I will get some cheap ones anyway but I may well get a decent one aswell.

I have used these

Tested 6 and 4 days early respectively. And obviously positive too. The GP when confirming the pregnancy used the same tests.

I use this company I have had no problems with them, and makes it cheap for the daily testing. I have found it easy to see early when I am pregnant and not.

Good luck. The ones rainbowdays linked are the same as the ones I linked, just a different seller. Have had friends use them with success too.
