Dollar Tree Pregnancy Tests?
We are TTC #3 and to try to save some money I bought pregnancy tests from the Dollar Tree (I'm a little impatient and don't want to blow $30 a month! :) From what I read online, they actually detect lower HCG levels than some of the name brand ones do. I took one this morning - 4-5 days before my missed period- and it was negative. My question is - how early have you seen a positive result using these tests? I know I tested early (there's the impatience!) and will test again in a couple days but I was just curious!
Thanks!
So What Happened?™
I was not pregnant that cycle but used the Dollar Tree tests again the next month and it came up positive even a couple of days early and while testing at night. I took a couple to reassure myself and all were the same (even the name brand one I had). Baby #3 is due in a few weeks! I guess they are accurate!

I used them and it came up positive right away! I have a friend who is a pharmacist, and she told me they are the best ones on the market. Good luck conceiving #3!

The last 4 times I was pregnant I found out with Dollar Tree tests. One detected it before a blood test even did! Lol.

I love these products and cannot beat the price. My pregnancy test detected that I was pregnant 3 days before missed period. I also used the ovulation kits too. Good luck.

I bought a dollar tree test and took it 6, yes six days before I was due for my period, and it came up positive. I believe the fact that I was carrying twins had something to do with that, double the hormones and all, but I agree with the moms who have used them, they work. I also used one for my last pregnancy, and it was positive immediately, although I don't know when my period was due, because I had just given birth about 3 months prior, and my periods had not resumed a "normal" cycle yet. Overall, I'd say they are pretty sensitive, so wait a few more days and test again. Good luck.

I am on my 4th pregnancy now and with my first three I ALWAYS bought those pregnancy test from Walmart for $10 each and it cost ALOT because I would buy them until I got a +.
But then I read online that the same companies that make the $10 ones are also the same companies that makes the $1 ones. So this time I went to the Dallor tree and I got three test and I came home and took one ( I was like two days late ) and it came back + POSITIVE, I was like NO WAY, so I took the 2nd test and it was still + and then I called the Dr. and had a visit a few days later and YEP it was true.
I still have the third test under my bathroom sink.
I would never buy those $10 test again.
Give it a few more days and take another test.
I wish you the BEST. = )
