3. hubbys a hosp commish so he carries around cases of these things to give to agencies and

..stuff and ppl are really excited to get them and are using them and asking him for more.

Some of our neighbors, whom i KNOW havent taken any vax, are asking him for them all the time.

Why the hell dont THEY get sick, when hubby.... who still masks up 100% of the time and had all his shots.... got it.

4. I am pretty sure it's 8 per month

[Ms. Toad]

13. Not through the post office.

The post office tests are in addition to the 8/month you can get at the drugstore through insurance or Medicare.

5. That's weird!

It said I'd reached my limit. I haven't ordered any through the USPS in several months.

[MrsCoffee]

7. Same.

[Pacifist Patriot]

9. Same here.

[peggysue2]

6. Done!

The tests I ordered earlier came in very handy when my son got sick. But their expiration date is coming due.

Time to restock!

Thanks for the heads up.

15. Check the new expiration dates here:

https://ihealthlabs.com/pages/news

They've been extended on some of those tests.

[peggysue2]

24. Thanks for that!

[Staph]

16. Check the expiration date information online

at https://www.fda.gov/medical-devices/coronavirus-covid-19-and-medical-devices/home-otc-covid-19-diagnostic-tests#list

The FDA has extended the expiration dates on some of the existing home tests. The version I have was extended by three months!

[peggysue2]

25. Thanks for the info

I'll definitely check.

Appreciate the reminder

[piddyprints]

10. Supposedly, we can order our 3rd set via usps.com.

However, when I try, it tells me that we've ordered our maximum. I've only gotten 2 sets and have used them up. Maybe someone needs to update the website?

[LetMyPeopleVote]

11. These tests are nice to have available

[Ms. Toad]

12. This is not a new announcement.

When I tried to order, I received the notice that I had already ordered the maximum.

[JanMichael]

28. It just worked for me. Maybe the USPS doesn't like you?

[Ms. Toad]

32. The last release of tests was mid-May.

I ordered them as soon as they were available, as I did the two prior times.

There hasn't been a new release in the past 3 months. (There are others in this thread confirming the same experience.)

14. I get 8 a month free at Rite Aid

[PortTack]

22. Thank you so much

For sharing this

[snowybirdie]

23. I requested ours

A few weeks ago, and received them quickly. Our wonderful mail carrier, Patty, also left them in front of the home of our 90 year o!d neighbor, as well, unrequested. She knows her residents and cares about them personally. We're every fortunate.

[JanMichael]

26. Done! Thank you. Also looking into getting a 5th shot.

[KewlKat]
