Batteries anyone

Let me preface this by saying that Zachary is much like his sister in the fact that he is borderline obsessive compulsive when it comes to money. And so the other day when he comes across the website that my brother told him about where he can find good deals he decides to check it out. After much searching and looking for that one good deal he finally found one on batteries that he just couldn't pass up. Nevermind that we had a freakin bag full of them in the pantry. But, no the deal was just to good!! We didn't need any batteries he just wanted to buy them in case the day comes around when we happen to need a million batteries. At any given moment all our flashlights could die, our clocks could stop ticking, our remotes could stop working, my camera might stop taking pictures, our PDA would stop taking notes (oh, wait we don't have one of those) and if all that stuff stopped doing its normal everday job then we would still have enough batteries to umm- I don't know maybe breed an army of energizer bunnies. Thanks Zachary for keeping up the supply!!

Um, Jay, this is Marla's blog, not Zachary's. She happens to be slightly less impressed than him. :)
I like the way you tell the story, Marla. But if you decide to go with the bunnies, you might want to avoid giving them their drums. The house could get kinda loud.

I think that Brenda is crazy, it was only 32 batteries! ( For $4.79 total!!!!!!) How can you pass that up? You CAN'T!

That's hilarious. And if you go with the bunnies, maybe you should send one down here. But then again, it wouldn't last very long with Daisy here. :)hahahaha

That bunny thing is hilarious! Maybe you could loan me some batteries for my tv remote. Right now they are oozing white stuff. It still works though so I'm keeping them.

I think I need the link. Since I have a total of six remotes in my living room two in my bedroom one in the boys room and one in the garage. Plus there is Kayla's piano that Kristi plays and then there is the remote control cars and I think every single one of Jaydens toys makes loud obnoxious noises and they all run on AA's. So to make this short GREAT JOB ZACH!!!!!!

Just so that all of you know, Brenda needed some of my batteries this morning for her camera! Oh the irony!

You know what? That is a spectacular savings. By the way, Consumer Reports said that keeping them in the freezer doesn't really make them last longer, so you can take them out now.
