I have never seen one, but that doesnt mean anything. Go to somewhere like walgreens and ask the pharmacist.
However, a simple blood test at your doc office can tell you. And I promise that even if you do know your type, they will still test you before they give you blood products or take your blood to give to someone else.
They are not only testing for type, but for the antigens in your body. Also, these typing tests are only good for 72 hours. So, even though say both you and a spouse are the same type, you may not be compatable to donate blood to each other due to other antigens in your blood.
If you can get ahold of them, your type is atleast listed somewhere in your birth records.

I do not believe there is a kit which you can buy to determine your blood type. There is a much better way to get your blood typed and its for free. If there is an American Red Cross bloodmobile in your area, drop in and donate a pint of blood. You may be helping ten people with the donation and ARC will tell you your type. Please consider this method. One can never tell when someone may need blood.

The best to know about it is doing a blood work in a lab. Second is donating your blood to the Red Cross, you will know the result in 5 days.
I've never heard about the test kit, sorry I can't help you!

No.
You got to get it clinically test it like say, at the Red Cross.
The way I found out about my blood type ( O positive),
I donated my blood at a blood drive that came to my school.
2 weeks later, I got results

Blood Type O Its kinda the opposite. I can have insensitive/ruthless/vain tendencies but it isn't a constant trait. Passionate yes, obsessive yes. Outgoing no. Warrior I can see, natural instincts are right at the surface.

no u have 2 go 2 the hospital. I think it's stupid, your blood type is what every doctor asks you, but it's hard as hell to actually get the answer!!!
