Cheap OPKs - poas or cup?

Question 1: can you buy cheap OPKs which don't involve having to collect a sample? Its so much easiere to POAS, rather than pee-in-a-cup!

And question 2: if you have to get a sample, has anyone worked out a discrete, clean system? I don't fancy popping a cup in the dishwasher each morning!

Hi :)

I don't know about actually POAS, as I preferred to collect mine in a cup. I bought a cheap plastic jug, and some disposable plastic cups to do mine. Made it a hell of a lot easier.

Even when I have sticks you can piss on I still use a cup. Reason being that I can't time how long I can wee for but I can get perfect timing using a cup. You can get cheap midstream tests on the Internet try the home health site, but they are still a good bit more expensive than the cup version.

I dont find it easy to POAS at all - I always end up missing and peeing all over my hand etc lol. I just use a cheap plastic cup and then rinse it out when needed at home. If Im at work I use one of the disposable cups from the water machine.

Wow - there's a whole new world to POAS! Will look out the picnic set, and might have let DH know to make sure no-one drinks out of the cup. Eugh... this conception lark is pretty minging :o . Thanks for the advice.
