ON: Free Rapid Antigen Test (grocery storre; pharmacy) YMMV

Free at home RATs available at Participating retailers may have additional information on their websites, such as how individual locations are distributing kits. This includes:

• Longo’s (available through Grocery Gateway online orders)
• Walmart (available only through advanced online orders for in-store pick-up)
• Loblaws including drugstore in Fortino’s and Your Independent Grocer, Real Canadian Superstore and Zehrs
• Shoppers Drug Mart

• Rexall pharmacies

Announced today, 1 per family, free rapid antigen tests (RAT) from local pharmacies or local grocery stores
Check locations for your free RAT here: https://www.ontario.ca/page/rapid-testing-home-use#locations

Some have complained that some stores distribute with grocery pick up only, with a minimum order. This is a free offer.
Some have picked up at Costco. Call to check availability. No membership required to use go to the pharmacy.

Sure alot better way to get one than how they were being distributed before.
We have not found one place in Lindsay that are giving them out yet

Thxn for post. People are free to go from store to store. So these will be gone quickly. LOAD up.

(on what you need - don't hoard and resell etc. etc.)

Went to three different locations today to find one location that had some...so lucky for us we now have one box of tests..good luck for everyone else looking for one.

I popped into my Food Basics yesterday. They have no pharmacy but were handing the kits out. My only complaint is they gave me a French instruction sheet. Does anyone on this forum have the English instruction sheet they can scan and email to me? If so, please pm.

Do they have a website on the box? Toll free number? Sometimes the company has the instructions online or have a bilingual customer service number.
