Hi! I called and got answers -

1.) If you have a Confirm or Micro meter - call 1-855-776-0662 for a full refund of your METER price, to be given back to you in the form of a Walmart gift card via phone, sent by mail. DATE DOESN'T MATTER. Just need to give the serial number on the back of your Confirm or Micro meter.

---strips are still available and should be online and in stores for the next 9 weeks at LEAST, for the current Confirm and Micro models. Then they stock based on warehouse.

2.) The new meter, "Relion Premier Compact" - works the same as Confirm/Micro, using .5 blood - but less bells and whistles, less noises, easier to work. = $19.45 (USA including below)

--should be in all Walmart stores right now:

1.) Relion Premier Compact meter, with CR2032 battery
2.) 50 test strips
3.) 10 of 28 gauge lancets (device)- accepts ANY Relion gauge, will stay that way.
4.) doesn't keep time, only stores 10 test readings at a time
5.) comes with zippered bag

---needs to call for control solution, 1-855-776-0662

a.) test strips = $9 for 50.
b.) test strips = $17.88 for 100.

c.) 26 gauge lancets = $1.48, for 100 online and in store = $3.68 for 4 pack (100) in store/online.

--ANY Relion lancets are able to fit/work with the new Compact.

-------Walmart phone employees have been trained for a few months, the new Compact has been out for about a month now nationwide

Not a problem, more coming once I get the manager - spent my whole life in this role, I WILL get info. On the new thread - if anyone has questions PLEASE list them, let me know and I'll go after it. I don't mind at all. :cool:

What is the solution used for? I've had the Confirm since the start and never used solution-is this required for the new meter? Total newbie with this part I guess!
 
You probably don't really need the control solution. I've never owned any in close to 4 years for any meter. Then again, if I think I'm getting odd readings, I test myself and use that as a control number so if you want to avoid potentially needing to do that, you might want to grab a bottle of control just in case.
 
Thanks for getting this info and sharing it with us :)

But seriously, it makes me wonder what their reasoning is as to why they're replacing the Confirm with a meter that apparently has less functionality? o_O:mad: IMO, the only thing about it that's a plus is that the strips will be cheaper.
