glucose strip recycling?
I'm suddenly seeing ads for glucose test strip recycling. Has anyone tried it and what was your experience? Any concerns about scams or anything?
What is in them that makes it profitable anyway?
Thanks all.

"test strip recycling model borders on being a black market. He buys strips for pennies on the dollar from people who don’t need them, and then turns around and sells them to uninsured patients at significant discount off of retail prices, while taking a middle-man mark up for himself."
