My daughter is 12 so I've had 11 years to remember things like batteries. We always keep a box of AAs & AAAs in the house as we have quite a few remotes, door alarms etc etc etc.. fortunately, my daughter is now into things she can download - (iPods n stuff) so don't have to worry too much about batteries for a couple of years, then it all starts again with my son lol ![](/icons/s/biggrin.gif) |

Dont buy them from normal retail outlets if you can help it.
look in your Yellow Pages for a "Battery Specialist".
We have one on our local Trading Estate and as well as the usual car battery and bike battery you can get special industrial Duracel ones too. I buy Silver Top Duracell AA and AAA for around 19p each. They come in boxes of 10, for less than £2, and are better than the standard copper top Duracel. Kate used to be Ann Summers Rep so got through these in vast numbers. Hope this helps xxx Jack ![](/icons/s/biggrin.gif) |

It wasnt batteries I forgot it was a blooming extention lead for the oldest kids PC!!!!
I have loads of rechargable batteries but forgot to get the extention lead and discovered today that the speakers need 2 sockets to themselves cos the plug is so big!! Hubby is off into town cursing me
