jack168 Posted March 1, 2022 Report Share Posted March 1, 2022 I just noticed that Costco (in Canada) has rapid testing for travel for $16, which is cheaper than shoppers drug mart. Has anyone tried using this option? I assume it is essentially the same as shoppers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they test you at Costco and it has all the pertinent info, you will be fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twangster Posted March 1, 2022 Report Share Posted March 1, 2022 For $16 get one today and see what the letter looks like. Pattycruise 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jen W Posted March 1, 2022 Report Share Posted March 1, 2022 So I spoke with the Pharmacist at Costco on the weekend, and they are a certificated pharmacy to test. He read the RC requirements and said everything is listed as outlined except the CLIA number as that is for Lab testing (he assumed). He showed me the testing box and it’s assured me it’s the exact same tested used by Shoppers. It was the Abott testing kit. Im booked in for March 10th. If there are any issues I will let ppl know. jack168 and bytheseashorenb 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jack168 Posted March 23, 2022 Author Report Share Posted March 23, 2022 Totally forgot about this thread, but we used Costco and no problems at all. Also since it's part of the pharmacy, no membership required. Bob_KY 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhoCruiser Posted March 24, 2022 Report Share Posted March 24, 2022 I'm wondering if this is available in the USA Costco stores as well, could be a real good option? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
