They've listed which counties have seen biggest increase in sales.

There's been a large surge in the sales of pregnancy tests since movement restrictions for Covid-19 were brought in.

Retailer Dealz says it's seen a considerable 25% increase in sales of the €1.50 First Vue pregnancy test amid the crisis.

The discount chain also listed which counties have been buying the most tests, with Dublin coming out on top.

Followed by Kerry, Cork, Cavan, and Carlow.

"If you’ve been wondering how people have been spending their time in lockdown, we’ve found the answer," said Sharon Sheridan, Dealz country manager.

"Couples under the same roof don’t need to worry about social distancing and as our sales figures show, they’ve been getting up close and personal, finding more ways to relax than watching Netflix or doing jigsaws.”
