This is kind of stupid. Since Brownie's diabetes diagnosis a month ago, I've been buying the boxes of 50 test strips. This time I'm going to buy the box of 100 strips since they're a better deal, but I noticed they're locked up in a little clear plastic box on the shelf. Does anyone know if I'm supposed to take the box to the pharmacy or if I can take it to a regular checkout?
I can't ask in the store because I can never understand any of the people who work there. Everyone I've spoken to have thick foreign accents and I can barely make out 10% of what they say. It's very awkward. Then there's the issue of all the regular checkout lines always being super long. I always have to use self-checkout and then hope it's faster to flag down an employee to unlock the machine when I buy any diabetes product (they trigger a "cannot return item" message). Anyways, I figure someone here should know where I can pay for the strips that are locked in the clear box.
