Current DNA Sales December 27, 2020

Updated December 28, 2020 – removed Sticky.

MyHeritageDNA and 23andMe ended their sales although the $49 sale price for basic MyHeritageDNA is still $49.00 on Amazon – will likely end soon and still has the sale for its basic kit for $59 if you use the link in 2) below. AncestryDNA has the $1 offer for 3 month World subscription if you order the basic test. It appears and disappears on a regular basis. Double checked all prices and made adjustments as needed. Note Dante Labs is offering a $340 discount price for both of its kits if you use Promo Code CHRISTMAS2020 – no word on when it ends.

The major DNA Sales going on now: 1)  LivingDNA sale 30% off with free shipping for 3+ kits in a single order – https://livingdna.com/ basic kit sale price $69, other kits available no word on when it ends. 2) MyHeritage if you order the MyHeritage Basic kit offer https://myheritage.com/kit/ sale $59.00 (still available as of December 27, 2020, regular price $199.00 for the package); 3) AncestryDNA sale – see below for prices or https://www.ancestry.com/dna/; basic and Health kits sale end December 31, 2020. 5)  FamilyTree DNA (FTDNA) https://www.familytreedna.com/ – Sale prices – see below under FamilyTree DNA; sale ends today.

TeloYears offers 2 COVID-19 tests for sale – they are only available for bulk orders right now. We currently offer COVID-19 rRT-PCR testing by shipping collection kits in bulk to qualifying organizations such as clinics/physician practices, city and state governments, hospitals, nursing homes, employers, and health plans.  A discount if you buy both together. Helix offers a COVID-19 test. Vitagene offers a COVID-19 test if you qualify. However, you will need to meet the requirements to qualify for the test which aren’t easy. Sequencing.com offers a free Coronavirus Health Assessment and a paid $34/use COVID-19 Severe Outcomes Genetic Analysis. FamilyTree DNA (FTDNA) offers a CCR5 test for $39; if you have the mutations, you are a lot less likely to get COVID-19; it’s not a guarantee.

Over 1,600 words. If you are interested in a specific company, scroll down to it and see current price.

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.

Update to the last post: Current DNA Sales December 26, 2020 As of today, WeGene has not started selling $99.00 DNA kits. I check every few days since at some point I expect to see them offering this price.

Full Genomes Corporation: https://www.fullgenomes.com/ $15 Individual SNPs. Other options available.

Helix –  https://www.helix.com/collections/all/ some tests maybe on sale, but many aren’t (direct link to Helix list of most DNA tests offered, but it’s not the complete list as some are only listed in other parts of the Helix site). However, Helix sometimes does limited sales so check any test you are considering to see if it’s on sale. They offer a COVID-19 test, but see requirements  https://www.helix.com/pages/covid19-efforts for receiving it; tends to be limited to large orders from medical providers or similar agencies.

You need to sign up for 3 months of Silver, Gold, or Platinum membership (annual membership is cheaper, but if you are not sure you want to go that route, monthly membership is available.
