Where the heck are all the FRERs

I'm probably super late to the game on this, but where the heck are all the FRERs? Is there, like, a national shortage?

I went to Tesco, Asda, boots and superdrug today and nada.

I ordered some from Amazon this week with next day delivery

As ridiculous as this sounds, I don't trust Amazon anymore 😂😂 I ordered from Amazon and the box inside was so bashed up and the expiry was super close. Looks like I'll have to though!

Hi @HopefullMumto4 Boots pregnancy strips are worth buying xx

Yeah I was just reading that they’re not always great from Amazon 🤦🏼‍♀️.
I order the Wondfo test strips from Amazon & they seem to be good (and cheaper). Long expiry date & got a positive result at 9dpo

Yeah I ordered from some Amazon and they weren't sealed and deffo were fake, looked the same but no branding on them. You could look to order on boots online or Superdrug online? X

Co-op and a different Tesco today - still nope 🫣

@snapcracklepop10 - I tried that and they all say out of stock online too 😱

There was a recall on them late last year and early this year so I expect manufacturing is struggling to keep up with demand

First Response recall
