Test Kit Story

 Back in January, my local grocery in the village....started selling Covid-19 self-test kits.  General price?  8.99 Euro (roughly $10 US) per kit (one-time test).  I felt at the time....it was a ridiculous amount of money for what some Chinese company made for probably 1-Euro or less.  

Today, I walked into the same grocery....here are the same kits, and now priced at 2.49 Euro each.  My general impression?  The kits just aren't selling that well anymore.  There's probably some big case in the back of the store with 500 kits in it and the manager just wants to get out of the business of test kits.
