Buying up big on a 300-pack of batteries could save you money - and a lot of heartache - down the track. It might still be summer, but we're hurtling towards Christmas - and anything you can do now to be prepared will be a massive timesaver down the line. Take something as simple as batteries - we've all been there, unboxing a new device that we've been waiting ages to buy, or watching as one of your kids unwraps a present they've been excited about for months, only to discover that it doesn't come with any batteries.
Having a good stock of batteries in a drawer or cupboard is an absolute must if you want to be prepared for that sort of eventuality (or even just when your existing batteries run out). While it can be really expensive to buy name-brand batteries in brick-and-mortar shops, you might not realise that Amazon has had its own range of batteries for years now. Its Amazon Basics label has a stunning deal at the moment, letting you pick up a jumbo pack of 300 AAA Alkaline Industrial Batteries for just £37.
09 - a 21% reduction at the time of writing. With a five-year shelf life, this means that you'll have enough batteries to power an armada of remotes, clocks, hand fans, toys and more. Anything that fits this size will work.
If you don't need quite that many, or you prefer AA batteries, smaller packs and different sizes are available, each with some level of discount right now - but if you pick up 300 , you'll almost definitely be sorted come Christmas time. READ MORE.
