Lidl launch Ireland's cheapest antigen test that is EU approved
Lidl Ireland are offering single antigen tests for €2.99 each across all 171 Lidl stores in Ireland.
The tests will be available for purchase on Saturday the 27th of November.
Lidl were the first food retailer to bring the tests to the market back in April 2021 and can now offer the single use antigen test for less than €3.

Lidl CEO JP Scally said: "We believe that making these affordable and accessible for everyone is the right thing to do."
"We are fortunate to have a huge network of 171 stores right across the country, with over 1.5million shoppers in weekly."
The antigen tests will be available to purchase at every Lidl checkout.
They're produced by Genrui Biotech Inc, are CE certified, and are on the approved EU list.
Lidl Ireland urges all shoppers to continue to follow all public health advice and wear a mask while in store.
