Okay so if you want the most accurate and cheapest reagent testing results you are best to use a drop from a bottle kit on a white ceramic plate at home under a good white light and slowly watch the colours change. As you may well know you are best to use as many of the 5 main reagents as you can get your hands on (Marquis, Mandelin, Mecke, Simons & Robadope). Here is a few places you can get many or all of these cheap bottle kits from ecstasypilltest.com dancesafe.org or RealTimeReagents on ebay http://www.bluelight.ru/vb/threads/677922-RealTimeReagents-New-US-Based-test-kit-supplier-w-Dropper-bottles-USPS-Priority-S-amp-H. Unfortunately this process all takes quite a bit of time, effort, planning and cleanup.
So what happens if all else fails and you need some kind of last minute test kit you can use at a festival or even a nightclub bathroom? Well if you have no shortage of cash you can go to eztest.com and buy their disposable vial kits. Most useful would be Marquis, Mandelin and Mecke for testing pills or powder sold as ecstasy or Ehrlich for blotters [tabs] sold as LSD. (Don't bother with their mCPP test as results have shown it shows nearly the same yellow colour for piperazines as MDMA).
Here is another option if you want to save cash and wastage of those disposable EZtest glass vials. Simply buy a few plastic test tubes. I searched ebay for "plastic test tube" and chose show price + shipping lowest first. I found a listing for 5 plastic test tubes with plastic end stoppers for less than 2 bucks including shipping! They were a convenient size of 80mm length by 12mm diameter. All you do is place a couple of drops of your reagent of choice (from your cheap bottle kit) in the plastic test tube place the stopper on and shake it around to make sure there is no reaction of the chemicals in the reagent to the plastics. Hopefully you should be fine as the most commonly produced plastic is HDPE (recycle code 2) which is highly resistant to acids. If you want to go the extra mile you can add some silica gel (just like the EZtest vial kits). This should soak up the reagent liquid and make it safer against accidental spills. Simply hunt around the house for those little moisture absorbent packets you find in vitamin bottles, electronics and some food packaging. The packets will usually say Silica Gel, Do Not Eat. Cut one open crush up the silica beads a little if you really want and then put just enough in the vial so there's no liquid sloshing around. For a quick and dirty method I would make one vial for Marquis and one vial for Mandelin. All you need to do is pop the stopper off, place a scraping in, place the stopper back on and shake it. This should hopefully be enough to help you out against the bulk of fake ecstasy pills and be quick and usable enough to use in a club bathroom. For a larger festival such as one you camp at you could make one vial up for each reagent if you wish to be more accurate and have an arsenal to test research chemicals. You could even use two vials for Simons or Robadope. One containing Simons for example and the other containing the buffer and then combine them when you need to use them. Obviously don't use the silica gel if you want to easily pour out the liquid of one vial into another.
I haven't done this yet but I plan to once my plastic test tubes arrive from China. I'll update with photos once I've done this.

- thankfully now that we have a supplier selling the bottle testers and shipping worldwide I'm hoping more people will start buying the bottle testers again. Making your own glass vials for use at a club / festival will certainly work out cheaper than the vials being sold by Eztest.
