Random tip for folks:  If you link vudu to movies anywhere and the movie is there, you can link to Amazon/etc.

Gamestop is doing it again.  Pro membership is $10 right now and comes with $10 worth of points.  With that comes a $5 coupon each month.  Basically they are giving away money.  If you shop at Gamestop at all, it's a no brainer.

Starting in Jan, the US government will be giving away free at home covid tests joining other countries already doing so.  Right now, ihealth is already offering free tests. Use coupon code "doctormike" at checkout to get a pair of tests for free. Pick overnight shipping for free shipping.

Same, on the west coast.  Also, had to pay tax on shipping?!

Also, FWIW, check out this article: You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login

Antigen tests are not super reliable, at least if it comes up negative.  Studies have shown that one can test negative but 1) still have COVID and 2) still be transmissible before testing negative.
That being said, these are _NOT BAD_ at all, just not necessarily 100% reliable either.  I guess what I'm saying is, if you use one of these and think you may have been exposed to COVID, don't take that as a sign you can run around w/out a mask and kiss random strangers

Nothing is 100% reliable, not even PCR.  PCR and LFT serve different purposes.  A PCR test can be positive even after someone has recovered.  Some people have positive PCR tests long after they get better.  LFT are good at determining if someone is infectious.  That's why the test comes in a 2 pack.  It's not two separate tests to be used in two unique occasions.  They are 2 tests that are supposed to be used for the same occasion.  Use the 1st and then wait about 3 days and use the 2nd.  After being infected, someone may not be infectious right away.  That's why there's the 3 day wait for the 2nd test.  And that's also why someone who tests negative on a LFT may test positive with PCR.  It's because they aren't infectious enough for the LFT test to be positive.  Overall, an antigen test is about 80% reliable.  That 3 day wait was also for covid pre-omicron.  With omicron, people seem to become infectious much faster.  That's also why some people that require a negative test for entry are saying it has to be within 1 day instead of the 3 days it's been up to now.

There is a reason the home tests come with 2 in a box. You're supposed to take the test, and then test again 2-3 days later. Having BOTH tests return a false negative (i.e. show negative when you're actually positive) is a much lower risk.
