Best cgm prices?

#1

I have used a Freestyle Libre 3 in the past, before they were available without a prescription. I’m not diabetic so I got a prescription through the website tastermonial. I’m interested in using them occasionally just to keep a handle on my blood sugar and also discover problematic foods or situations. But I looked a little bit online yesterday and the prices are more than I want to pay. Anyone find a great price on that particular CGM? I could try another kind, but since I already know how to use that and have the app, I was interested in keeping the same one.

You know, they seem to be around $100/month. Which I think is a lot. This is from GoodRx:

I think this is for two sensors, though it’s confusing.

There’s a new over-the-counter version (in the US) that’s $100/month:

They still require a prescription, unless something changed, only the new Dexcom is available OTC, last time I looked into it the CGM companies were still a better deal. If you’re anywhere near Diabetic, or have a bad fasting number, anything your doc can use to cover themselves getting one prescribed will still be the best deal because then Ins will eat most of it.
