Free Home covid tests in the mail?
 
I received two Binax tests via USPS today that I didn't order. :confused: Did I miss a memo? Has anyone else received these?

I have two QuickVue tests sitting on my shelf that the gov't sent out. Never used them and I expect they are expired.

Haven't heard of any new mailings.

I've seen commercials about this but thought you had to order.

I'm just making sure the young ladies in the New Jersey area are safe.

I think we've received about 14 in the mail, and we ordered them for free from some govt website.

I'd be leery of any that I hadn't ordered.

All the ones we received have expired. I did use two over a week ago that came back positive After feeling bad.

But you trust the ones the gov't. sends to you? What are the odds they're made in China?

I got 4 in the mail, ordered online. Shipped from Topeka

Mystery solved. FBII ordered them for me w/out me knowing.

The Gov ones we received weren't Binax, some off brand I'd never seen. Already expired.

But the Wife learned from her friend you can get them from Walgreens with your med insurance. She picked up 4 boxes (8 tests) no charge.

That makes sense. Glad the mystery has been solved.
