For the uninformed. I work in IT in healthcare. The test are not going to stop you from getting COVID, they will let you know you have COVID. What you choose to do with this information is up to you and, let's face it, your employer. For us it means working from home for at least the day (for a non-positive result) or working from home for at least the week (for a positive result). We care about our coworkers and have the ability to protect them from getting sick. Which in turn protects them from spreading it to their families and patients.
We are lucky enough to have an employeer that cares about spreading disease and are lucky enough to have the ability to work from home. One of my coworkers is currently working from home because he is sick and I appreciate him for it.
I've been on SD for ages and I never get why people feel the need to argue about stuff like this. If you don't want the test, think it's stupid, whatever, don't sign up for it then. If you want it, great, get it.

tl;dr - chill out with the fighting
If you have a certain Kaiser plan, they give you home test for free. Its 4 boxes of 2pk max a month per person.

Considering most people ignore the CDC guidance and dont mask up when positive, the 8 tests are great if you still require proof before entry.

Who does that anymore?

After learning facts organized in Invisible Rainbow, "free" is not worth the trouble of participation. Voted bad product for misleading undue influence.

Quote from taiwan :
Omicron was first discovered in Nov 2021 and became dominant in 2022. I counted a total of 8 "deals" on free COVID kit for 2022, the highest number of any year. I never saw any shortage of free testing kit when Omicron was around. When I needed the free kit, I was always able to get them. On the other hand there were only two listings in 2023 even though XBB was the thing for last year. This year JN.1 is taking over. I'm just one month it accounted for nearly 90% of all cases. JN.1 can spread more easily and can evade immunity better. These free kits always seem to coincide with the timing of a new strain becoming dominant. So in fairness I think the government is doing a pretty decent job.
I caught omnicron in August of 2022. It kicked my a$$. I vividly remember people asking for test kits on Nextdoor. I also remember CVS, Walmart, Walgreens, etc were all out of stock. People who had the tests were selling them for a profit, no surprise. The government offered the free tests AFTER the wave as over. They were criticized for the delay. I remember that vividly as well. Don't try to rewrite history. A simple Google search will show results of articles written about the shortages. I tried to post a link, but it was taken down.

Are these expired tests where the expiration date has been extended? When my son had Covid I tested him with one of those free ones that had been expired but the date had been extended and it showed he was negative. I didn't trust that so I went and bought a newer one that hadn't been expired and that one showed he was positive.
