A sensor clip assembly is disclosed for storing and dispensing analyte testing sensors. The sensor clip assembly includes numerous test sensors arranged in a stack. Each test sensor is configured to assist in testing an analyte in a fluid sample. The sensor clip assembly also includes a skeletal frame with a top, a bottom, and numerous sides. The top, bottom and sides are interconnected to define an internal chamber within which is stored the stack of test sensors. At least one of the sides includes one or more elongated rails with structural gaps on opposing sides thereof. For some configurations, multiple sides of the skeletal frame comprise at least one or multiple elongated rails, each of which has structural gaps on opposing sides thereof and may be columnar in nature.
