Need Batteries?? Head to Staples

This is a deal that is too good to miss.  Everyone needs batteries --- think about your smoke detector, your cameras, your flashlights (yeah, the one you haven’t checked in months)  You know you need batteries!!

So – head on out to Staples because until 12/26 Staples is running a promotion on Duracell batteries: 

Buy one 20ct pack for $12.99 and get the whole $12.99 back as a Staples Reward.  The limit on this deal is 2 per week!  That means you can get up to 40 free batteries every week.  C’mon, I know you need batteries, but more than 40 per week for the next few weeks --- no one needs that many batteries!

CVS: Week of 11/29

Shop Rite: Week of 11/22

I promised Lenny that I was NOT coming into his store this week.  I think I might have lied.  I might be making a quick stop at ShopRite this week.  I know I didn’t spend enough for the turkey (did you??) and there’s nothing I need for Thanksgiving – but there are a few freebie and super-cheap deals that are very hard to resist.  And ShopRite isn’t really out of my way when I’m driving home from work ….
