Beer sales flowing as dive bar offers ‘one free RAT with every beer’ purchased

Hearing news of the severe RAT shortage gripping Australia amid the surge of COVID-19 cases, one clever bar owner has seen a huge influx of business from a marketing initiative offering “one free RAT with every beer purchased”.

Dismayed customers however have been left shocked upon purchase of their beer and accompanying promotion which was in fact, not a rapid antigen test. 

With their hands tied managing the rising case numbers, health authorities have attempted to handball customer complaints to advertising regulators while the dive bar continues to report record beer sales.
