Pumpers get all their material free. The only thing pumpers need to pay for, are extra pump pockets.

For a change, I'm happy I live over here...
The original question was from someone using syringes who was concerned about cost.

I'm happy for you that you live in a country with socialized medicine and get your diabetes supplies at no direct charge. That doesn't help the questioner who doesn't.
