Yep. I actually had a Dollar Tree employee say that they had a lot of costumers buy the cheap ones first then only take the more expensive ones for the announcement photos once they were sure. I had no problems showing my positive at 1 day before my missed period on a dollar tree test.

yes just as good as the name brand ones

Yes they’re as accurate as other ones if not better.

My cheap test was from Walgreens it said I was pregnant and I wasn’t even due for my period

Yes of course just like hospital test

Yes, tested positive for both my girls

I used dollar store with my first child. Accurate. The $0.89 cents from Walmart with 2nd child, also accurate. Both taken on the morning I should have started my monthly cycle. The positive pregnant strip even showed up before the test strip indicator did🤣

All 4 of my kids were discovered on either dollar tree or 89 cent Walmart tests.

Yes
Mine was an 89¢ test from walmart that floated around my bathroom and was stepped on a few times :sweat_smile: and still read loud a clear lol

At 70 I wouldn’t know. Lol

I bought a bunch because I had 4 teenage daughters, they never knew when I would spring one on them, bought the drug one too :woman_shrugging:t2: one waited until she was 24 to get pregnant, the other 20, one joined the Air Force, one more to go…Just scaring them was good enough for me. May never win parent of the year but that’s ok by me. & yes I tried getting them on BC to prevent anything. They refused

They do! I got the positive early!

When I was suspicious and couldn’t get a doctor’s appointment, the nurse told me to buy a dollar tree test.
