    We have to pay in the UK 

    Oh wow. That sucks. In Canada... or in BC at least, we just go ask for one at any pharmacy and they hand it over.

    Side note. Absolutely LOVE the FluAB/Covid tests. Love that they exist. Plus it makes me feel like a chemist or something. 




    I love them now that you don't have to stab your brain with the swab! I got the newest tests and was SO pleased it had been updated so you only have to go up your nose a tiny bit (of course the older ones had expired - everyone check your kits, and go get them replaced at the pharmacy if expired!... Does the US hand out free tests??). 
    Until about March of last year, yeah, you could get a couple of free ones every couple of months.

    also expiration dates aren’t hard and fast. Most tests were good 8month- a year after the date.

    They aren't of course - however, since you never know if the age of the test could be causing a false negative or positive, probably better safe than sorry in this case.

    I'm just going off the guidance the Biden Admin gave when they were giving away stock.
