Both Walmart and Sam's Club are now selling at-home coronavirus tests online. Buying the test is a three-part process, but customers can get their results in as little as 24-48 hours. The 24-48 hour window starts after a lab receives a test, says Business Insider. Walmart has also opened 600 test sites across the country since the beginning of the pandemic. The at-home tests, which start at $99 and go up to $135, vary in their abilities and testing methods. Getting a coronavirus test from the comfort of your own home is now as easy as ordering one.

Around 100 Sam's Club locations will now be taking on a greater role in completing e-commerce orders under the chain's new "Ship from Club" program. The members-only retailer's first savings event began on October 4.
