My husband doesnt read instructions. He had a home covid test which he did this morning and has posted it in an ordinary postbox instead of a priority box. What will haooen? Will it still get there, or donwe need to order a new one?

Should be fine, I think the main difference (at least in my local area) is that the priority ones are collected more frequently including weekends - but as it's a weekday, it should get collected around 5pm today anyway.

It will be fine as long as it was before the last collection. If it was after it might still be fine tomorrow depending how quick it gets to the lab. The priority ones just have extra collections and also I imagine if there's staff shortages they will prioritise them.
