COVID-19.Large surfaces can sell autostrats: can we already find them in Toulouse?

Le Premier ministre Jean Castex, l’a annoncé hier, lundi 27 décembre 2021, les autotests peuvent maintenant être vendus par les grandes surfaces.

Until January 31

Until then exclusively reserved for pharmacies, the various supermarkets in Toulouse and its surroundings begin to organize to offer this sale of self -test "exceptionally", until January 31, 2022.

It must be said that before New Years Eve, demand is strong, especially since all pharmacies have not been replenished after the Christmas rush.

Following the government announcement on Monday evening, it is possible, Tuesday, December 28, to find self-tests in supermarkets in the city of Toulouse?And can we find it massively before Christmas Eve?

No purchase possible this Tuesday

In the aftermath of the announcements, it is clearly not yet possible to find self -tests in supermarkets.

"This is not done overnight" logically explains an employee of the Gramont shopping center.And for the moment, this is the same situation in all the agglomeration brands.

"A question of days"

At the Leclerc de Saint-Orens, the communications manager of the shopping center claims that "this is a question of days" and that stocks are present.For several weeks the group's CEO, Michel-Edouard Leclerc, has been growing in order to be able to sell the self-tests in its hypermarkets.

He also welcomed the government's decision, considering this decision, "fair and useful".

Carrefour for its part claims that stocks of self -tests will be gradually put up for sale in the first week of January.

Leclerc in pole

Leclerc has anticipated its purchases and should, logically, be the first brand to offer self -tests.

At the Leclerc of the Roques shopping center, customers call for whether the self -tests are already available.Too early.

Carrefour ordered 1 million tests

For the time being, Leclerc is clearly the most advanced brand.On the Carrefour Purpan side, no communication is for example topical on the subject.

Nevertheless, these self -tests could quickly, undoubtedly before the New Year, be sent on the shelves of the brand which had announced, in March 2021, having placed an order of 1 million tests.

The supervised price

It will therefore be necessary to wait a few days for the sale of the self -tests to really start in the supermarkets of the agglomeration.

At what price ?For the moment the large part of the brands like Leclerc, Carrefour (€ 9.75 per box of 5 or € 1.95 per car) and Super U, announces a selling price.

As a reminder, according to the Health Insurance website, the price of the drums is supervised: "The maximum sale price of a car is 5.20 euros".
