COVID-19 Self-Tests Available At Some Joliet Walgreens, CVS
JOLIET, IL — Earlier this week, Walgreens announced it was instituting a four-item purchase limit on at-home COVID-19 testing products in its stores and online. The decision was based on a nationwide surge in COVID-19 cases and increased demand, according to the Deerfield-based company.
CVS followed suit with its own policy, allowing customers to purchase five at-home COVID-19 tests.

Just a few Walgreens and CVS locations in Joliet have at-home COVID-19 testing products like BinaxNow available for in-store purchase. As the tests are selling out quickly, the company recommends customers visit their local store to see if it's available.
Patch called Joliet Walgreens and CVS locations Thursday morning. Below are locations that confirmed that they still have at-home testing products available. Products are selling out quickly, so we recommend you call each location beforehand to double check. Stores don't expect their next shipments to arrive for at least another week.
