If you’re after a DNA kit, or two, or more … now is the absolute perfect time to buy as it seems that it’s genealogy DNA sale season.
Afterall the holidays are coming, and that’s often when you catch up with relatives, so that’s a perfect opportunity to see if they would take a test as well, so it makes sense.
While the sales are largely to do with Thanksgiving and Black Friday which are coming up in the US, since the companies send worldwide, everyone benefits.
So here’s a run down of the offers on at present.
