    If you have a Lidl near you, they have rechargeable ones for £1.99 and are very good. In packs of 4 ... would work out much cheaper to buy them and a chargers ... and it'll be cheaper in the long run;)

    Packs of 4 AA or AAA are 79p in Morrisons with advertised offer "buy 2 packs for £1".

    So that's 8 batteries for a quid, not bad.

    However, at my local Morrisons they are going through as BOGOF, so 8 batteries for 79p, even better!
