If you are interested in a specific company, scroll down to it and see its current price. The biggest change has been MyHeritageDNA ending the sale on its Health test and they extended the regular DNA test for a few more days. I believe they will bring back a sale close to Black Friday/Cyber Monday.
Biggest change is MyHeritageDNA raised its sale price from $49 to $59 as they switched from their Halloween Sale to One Week Sale, ending tomorrow. They will probably have one or more sales later in the month.
This month and next month, most of the companies below will offer sales. When the sales begin and end will vary. Generally, there will be a Black Friday/Cyber Monday Sale sometime this month, and usually a Year-End Sale that will run in December 2019. This is an update to my earlier post this morning – DNA Sales November 2019 Have Started as several other DNA companies have joined the sale.
Making it Sticky for now as it includes the major DNA companies (23andMe, AncestryDNA, FamilyTree DNA (FTDNA), FindMyPastDNA, LivingDNA, MyHeritageDNA, Geno 2.0 Next until it is no longer available, Helix, and a few others, but will include some other DNA companies that are not considered major genealogical DNA companies), most of which aren’t having sales right now. Will replace when a new sale shows up. Monthly DNA price list for October – Current November 2019 DNA Prices November 1, 2019. That will cover many of the lesser known DNA companies. Amazon often has great deals for some of the DNA companies around Black Friday/Cyber Monday.
As always, check prices before you order! You can also check EBay and Amazon in case you find a lower price there, but make sure it’s for the same company and test. Some of the companies show an end date for their sale prices, but many don’t. Amazon loves to raise and lower prices on DNA tests on a somewhat regular basis, usually every few days for some of the major companies, bit less often for other companies. For EBay and Amazon purchases, always activate the test as soon as you get it to avoid problems.
