batteries for the kids xmas toys

If you have a Costco card, buy a batch of Duracell ones - I think it was about £7 for 20 AA size ones - I thought it was quite good value.

i found that the batteries from http://www.7dayshop.com/catalog/default.php?cPath=777 seem to last well in all my kiddys toy's. every time i buy a box of batteries i also order a pack of rechargeables.

merry xmas every one

Can anyone recommend a good/cheap site online to buy batteries? The trouble I find with most places online is when you add P&P they are so expensive....

Are all the tree hugers still in bed then?

If you buy the hybrio rechargeables they will not loose charge when the toy is not in use.
