Living DNA Holiday Sale Save Up to 20%

For its 2019 Holiday sale, three of the four DNA tests at LivingDNA are on sale for up to 20 percent off. There is no specific end date given for this "Limited Time Holiday Sale," and taxes and shipping are extra. There is free shipping for purchases of three or more test kits for this sale.

Living DNA's current lineup of autosomal DNA tests are:

LivingDNA Starter Kit is regularly priced at $49 and is not on sale at this time. It is described as a taster experience of ancestry and wellbeing reports to get started. It includes your global ancestry report (eight regions), DNA matches along with sample nutrition (nutrition and Vitamin D) and fitness (muscle performance) reports.

LivingDNA Full Ancestry Kit regularly priced at $99 is on sale for $79. It is described as the full ancestry experience from your deep ancestry to DNA matching. It includes recent ancestry, sub-regional ancestry breakdown, your DNA today, extended ancestry, DNA matching and free ancestry updates.

The LivingDNA Full Ancestry Kit is the original LivingDNA test comparable to autosomal DNA tests at other genealogy/DNA testing companies.

LivingDNA Wellbeing Kit regularly priced at $129 is on sale for $99. It is described with "understand your body's response to nutrition and fitness." It includes Vitamin Response, Food Metabolism, Nutrition Ideas, Exercise, Recovery and Exercise Ideas.

At this time LivingDNA does not test for genetically inherited diseases. 

LivingDNA Wellbeing & Ancestry Kit regularly priced at $179 is on sale for $149. It is described as advanced ancestry reports and your body's fitness and nutritional responses. Essentially combining the LivingDNA Full Ancestry Kit with the Wellbeing Kit.

There is a kit comparison chart here at LivingDNA's website. None of the test types appear to have the option of downloading a test's Raw DNA data file.

LivingDNA is based in the United Kingdom so if you have a lot of English and Irish ancestry the more detailed regions for Britain and Ireland in the ethnicity may be of interest to you. (Part of the now LivingDNA Full Ancestry Kit.) The company is still building itself so at a sale price it may be worth a try. Perhaps you will find a clue to direct your search.

BUT we have become aware that LivingDNA is now requiring that your LivingDNA test be taken/used and sent in within one year of the date of purchase. They will not process tests older than that despite the swab test tube saying its expiration date is well after that. Based on a LivingDNA Support article this change may have been implemented in early 2019. However, we are not sure when its Terms of Services was changed to reflect this. So if you have a LivingDNA test sitting around you might want to check its purchase date. Hopefully you still have time, or you may need to pay for shipping on a replacement test kit.

As a reminder, LivingDNA sometimes sells its test kits on Amazon.com and often at sale prices when it is having a sale. However, for this sale LivingDNA is not selling its tests at matching sale prices on Amazon at this time. (At the times when LivingDNA does, make sure the seller shown is LivingDNA fulfilled by Amazon and not sold by a third-party unauthorized seller.) Non-Amazon Prime members get free shipping due to the total cost if the kit is fulfilled by Amazon; prime members just get quicker 2-day shipping for free.
Look for this before adding your item to your cart.

Happy Holidays Everyone!
See you soon at Mt. Clemens Public Library!
