I have a Relion Meter from WalMart and their test strips are $17.88 per 100. My insurance will only pay for enough strips to test once a day and I am more comfortable checking more often.
An insulin dependent diabetic needs to test to be sure they are injecting the correct amount of insulin. "They" don't feel that those not on insulin need to test because there is nothing they can do about a high reading anyway, but it is a learning tool, learning what foods spike and which ones don't, as Ken said.
