mustloveerica, your judgy cashier comment reminded me of a late night grocery store run a couple years ago. My good friend's 15 year old sister was worried she was preggo. So, I ran out to buy an HPT for her. While I was there, I grabbed her a box of condoms so we could avoid this in the future. I needed some tampons for myself, and naturally we (not the 15 yo) needed a bottle of wine. The cashier looked at me as if I'd completely lost my mind. Priceless.
I once bought vodka, condoms, lube and Oreos and when the cashier looked at me I just smiled and said "it's gonna be a good night".

When my H and I started dating we went to Sam's Club and bought a 40 or 50 count box of condoms. It was very embarassing but it saved us a lot of money.

I have a ton of cheapies, just in case I want to test out my trigger or feel the need to pee on something after a light period (because it totally could have been implantation bleeding *SMH*). I also have the .88 cent walmart tests if one of the cheapies ever comes back positive. And of course I have FRERs if the .88 test looks positive too. Apparently if I ever get a positive it is going to take 3 tests to convince me.
July 2013 started TTC 7/20/2014=BFP; CP confirmed 8/1/2014 Dec 2014: Diagnosis = Unexplained IF 12/24/2014 Medicated TI (clomid)=BFN 1/22/2015: IUI #1 cancelled due to cyst 02/17/2015: IUI #2 cancelled due to another cyst 3/31/2015: IUI with Femera, 1 good follie, great sperm count = CP, my December Rainbow became an Angel
I've never really been a big tester because I'd rather not get disappointed. I have some cheapies I got with my OPK and a few FRERs stashed away. But so far my cycles seem to be irregular enough to not really make them useful... Two times I've tested and AF came a few hours later.
On a side note I bought the FRERs the same day as a bottle of Prenatals and the cashier looked them and said, "you know you only need to take those once you are pregnant, right?" I really wasn't sure what to say to her. LOL
I can't be trusted to have them in the house, because I will pee on them even if I KNOW there is no chance of getting a positive result. I have zero willpower. That said, I just bought a giant box of wondfo OPKs from Amazon and some pregnancy tests come in the box...we'll see how long they last.
TTC History: - History of irregular cycles, suspected to be anovulatory - SA normal - Hysterosonogram November 2016 - Diagnostic hysteroscopy, polypectomy, D&C January 2017 - Currently "on the bench" while taking BC to regulate cycles until June 2017

The last time DH and I bought condoms (and 2 large bottles of alcohol, and chocolate, and pizza amongst a few other things) the girl who checked us out was someone who was in a class he used to sub for. I thought it was hilarious... he was mortified though. This only made me laugh harder
I pretty much just always keep some on hand since I went off birth control 3 years ago. I would rather have a test to test with if/when the need arises than have to go to the store when I'm nervous, anxiety, excited, or whatever.
It does make the urge to test early/often greater since starting actively TTC again, but I like POAS... and buy them cheap on Amazon so at least there's that. I used subscribe & save and just keep pushing back the delivery.
I'll buy them as needed. I can't find the cheap ones that everyone talks about, so I won't bother stocking up. I'm cheap. And I would definitely pee on all the things if they were around.
I keep at least one two pack of Target brand generic tests on hand, 99% of the time AF shows up before I have to open the box. I buy 88 cent Wal Mart tests if I need to quell the crazy train, I usually have 2 in the medicine cabinet per month and only ever use one. I don't feel bad blowing through up to two a month and it calms me down. Following Murphy's law, using one of the Wal Mart tests usually means that my period is starting later that day...
