I don't know if this is helpful to you, but Walmart pharmacies have inexpensive insulin if you ask for it.

This is regular insulin, its quite unstable (by unstable I mean that its release mechanism is quite slow and requires a lot of planning compared to more modern 'fast acting' insulins.

with that said, as a type 1 - if I was in a predicament you bet i would go, if i recall they sell it for 25 a vial, whereas a vial of normal, fast acting insuling is ~250.
