I bought a pack of the AA's a few months ago, great battery life for the price.

I tried their AAA in a cordless mouse... only lasted ~65% as long as the Duracell pack the mouse ate last time.

same brand, Walgreens Ultra Alkaline

my Walgreen's was sold out of the 99cent packs, but they had these bulk packs

they aren't the same, the bulk packs are heavy duty, not ultra alkaline. i wanted to get a couple packs of the D Cells, but they were out of stock. was thinking about getting the bulk pack, but got a raincheck instead.

Typical sale prices for these Walgreen's battery, so you'll have plenty of chances to get them.

Yup, that's definitely pricing for the alkalines. The Walgreens Heavy Duty 9v batteries are a lot cheaper when on sale (29 cents to 40 cents individually). As typical with heavy duty batteries, they suck for everything but very low drain devices.

Same price for AA and AAA in albertsons.

But for 25% of the price, not bad. So for 4 packs, you'll get 260% as long as a single Duracell pack.

True, but I never pay full price for batteries, they were closer to 35 cent each in a bulk pack, AR. Even so I've already switched to NiMH for the mouse, it only ran for a few weeks at a time anyway before the batts needed changed so it's MUCH cheaper in the long run, since I already had the charger. Never use Alkalines these days except for remotes, clocks, smoke detectors, and a flashlight in the car.

Woohoo, golden post!:beer:
