My new diabetes case, a give away, and cool savings all in one post

I have been given this product as part of a product review. Although the product was a gift, all opinions in this review remain my own and the company in no way influenced me.

My new cool case

A few days ago, I received a diabetes supplies carrying case from SugarMedical. I want to say right off that I love this case. It is roomy and can comfortably accommodate the items I carry with me. The case I am using right now is SugrBag Mini Black Leather case. It meets all my typical requirements. It is soft, flexible, well made, and attractive. Since I have only been using it a few days I cannot attest that it is rugged, but it looks like it will last me a long time.

The SugrBag Mini Black Leather case measures 4.5” wide x 6” long x 1” thick. It is made of leather, and suitable for both males and females. On the outside, the case has small red stitching on one side and an outside pocket on the other side. The zippers are substantial, and the main opening zipper has a leather pull tab. The zippers move smoothly, and I believe they will take a beating with no adverse outcomes.

On the inside, I have room to place my meter, test strips, lancets, and medical or credit cards. The picture shows the extra vial I carry for used test strips.  I have also  comfortably included a USB cable which carry to recharge my telephone is needed. I believe that the case could easily handle two insulin pens. However, the case is not appropriate for carrying most pump sets. I use a quickset from Medtronic, and the case is not large enough to carry one of those. But that is not a knock on the bag, I have never placed a quickset in any of my diabetes cases. Instead I carry it in my bag. I also carry a FasClicx device, extra Lancet cartridges, a vial of 50 strips and several used test strips. On the outside, I carry two packages of Elovate in the zippered external compartment. I still have room for cards, a pen and if I took the cable out, a vial of insulin.

What I love about this bag is how thin it is, the feel of the case, and the high-quality construction. I have no doubt this case will last for years. The case fits comfortably in my purse (Man Bag, Brosac or Murse depending on what you wish to call it). I am amazed at how cool the case looks and how incredible it feels. This case is fantastic for the business person who does not want to look dissolved when they pull out their testing supplies, or anyone who wants a slim case that they can carry with ease inside any brief case, purse, or other all-purpose bag.

This SugarMedical case has become my everyday case for diabetes on the go. It easily fits in the drawer, and it looks great. Since it does not look like a miniature doctor’s bag, it is great to take anywhere, and I even had a person who I did not know ask where I got that cool looking wallet. (I told her I won the genetic lottery). If the case I carry is a bit too formal, rest assured they have plenty of styles including over the shoulder bags with cool pockets for carrying all diabetes supplies. The selection is varied and will suit almost all personalities. I might even get one for casual situations. These would make a great gift for all PWD’s.

Your chance to win and save

Speaking of winning, I have two cool offers. The good people at SugarMedical sent me an extra bag to give away, and you can be the winner. SugarMedical calls this bag the Universal Deluxe Supply Case-James . This case is slightly larger than the case I am using, but it is still very manageable. This case is designed for people with any type of diabetes. It has room for a combination of a meter, test strips, lancet device, syringes, extra insulin or snacks.

It has the most remarkable feature for used test strips. Inside the case, there is a small slot to put used test strips in. I am told it will store about 300 used strips, and it is easy to clean out. I think that slot is so cool, no more chasing used strips around the house or car.

The case is mostly black with red and gray stripes. It includes a removable strap, and the zippers are neatly accentuated with red pulls. Behind the mesh pocket is another pocket that is not zippered but provides yet another place to store items. It also has two Velcro stick tabs that can attach to an item you do not want to roll around in the bag. I envision using them for a meter or lancet device.
