Where to Buy Covid-19 Rapid Tests

The Krazy Coupon Lady is an ad-supported service. Many offers on our site contain affiliate links, and we may earn a small commission if you make a purchase using them. Some posts are sponsored by the maker of the product, and we receive a fee for the post. See our full advertiser disclosure.

If you’re looking for at-home Covid-19 antigen tests, we’ve compiled the ultimate list of links. Below are all of the places we’ve seen inventory for a variety of brands.

Most importantly, if you have health insurance, you can get these Covid-19 at-home tests for free starting Jan. 15. No insurance? Each household can order four free Covid-19 tests starting now.

We’ve gathered a few tips and tricks over the past few weeks on finding tests in stock:

  • Prices vary from $5 to $26.10 per test.
  • Check online links often for restocks and price changes.
  • Use the Walgreens app for Walgreens orders.
  • Walmart has been restocking tests in the mornings in stores.
  • CVS keeps their Covid-19 tests behind the pharmacy counter, so you’ll need to ask the pharmacist or pharmacy technician for one.
  • Even if the app or website says out of stock, it’s best to check in the store on the shelves.
  • Mosts tests are located in the aisle closest to the pharmacy.
  • Make sure to read even more Covid test tips before you buy.

If you’re looking to get a laboratory test (performed by a medical professional) we’ve found the best luck in these places:

  • With Insurance
  • Without insurance
    • Before your appointment, call your doctor’s office and tell them you don’t have insurance. Confirm that the provider you’ll be seeing is willing to participate in the HRSA Uninsured program and bill the federal government, not you.
