Want to find out who your baby's daddy is but don't want to bother with going to some sterile lab to be swabbed by people who actually know what they're doing? No problem! Go to Rite Aid and get your DNA Paternity Test kit for just $29.99.
True, you have to send in an additional $119 to have the DNA tested in a lab, but still, this is the greatest invention since sliced bread, and all the other at-home paternity tests available online for more money. Hell, you don't even have to tell your three potential baby daddies you're testing them for DNA. We're sure you can find some way to get a little saliva on a cotton swab, no?
Plus, once you mail in your saliva-soaked cotton swab in a plastic baggie with your $29.98 consent form and your check for $119, you can get your results in three to five business days online.
But buyer beware, the kits are not legally admissible in court; if you want one that is, you can get it for an extra $200. But so far, the $30 kits have been selling like wildfire, and probably faster than condoms.
Rite Aid is... pleased with the response. After a successful
trial run in about 1,000 stores in California, Washington and Oregon,
the drug store chain opted to move up plans to stock the kit
nationwide. The kits are to be available at most of its 4,363 stores --
excluding those in New York, where state law requires a court order to
obtain DNA.
Well, hey, New Yorkers, there's always Maury Povich.
