Rewe: Corona rapid tests in the supermarket? Münchner makes an embarrassing discovery on the shelf

A Munich Rewe store is promoting corona rapid tests after a pandemic for over a year.

Incorrect spelling.

So at the Hirschgarten there are “COVED 19” tests for just under five euros.

Munich - No question about it, typos can happen to anyone.

But especially in the hot phase of the global corona crisis that is currently prevailing, such a mistake as a nationwide large corporation that advertises to sell rapid tests * is quite unpleasant.

Munich supermarket signs Corona test with an unpleasant typo

An embarrassing breakdown has apparently happened at a Munich * Rewe branch in Hirschgarten.

Because there is a large sign that you cannot overlook and that reads “COVED 19 AG quick test 4.99 euros”.

After more than a year of the corona pandemic *, one might think that the - admittedly not too complex spelling - of the word "Covid" could actually have been remembered.

But mistakes happen.

The team of employees seems to have escaped the unpleasant faux pas in any case - but this is how customers now encountered the breakdown.

When our editorial team asked whether Rewe * intends to change the signage, the supermarket chain's press office has not yet responded.
