Those throw away batteries fill up landfills with toxic chemicals. They also cost lots of money. You can buy a 4 pack of recharable NiMH batteries for $15 and a charger for about $20-30. They also last alot longer than throwaways (particularly the newer 1800 mah) and will save you money in the long run. You can recharge them 1,000 times and they do not have memory issues like the NiCads. You can also get chargers that charge them in one hour. -----Original Message----- From: geocaching-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:geocaching-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx]On Behalf Of Budlvr40@xxxxxxx Sent: Tuesday, March 18, 2003 8:10 PM To: geocaching@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [GeoStL] Re: quiet Glen, and to everybody actually; 3/18/03 Just thought I would mention that with the K-Mart at Page and I-170 liquidating all their instore stock, there is a heck of a Blue-Light Special on the following: ; AA batteries, 12 packs for 40% off, about $3.25/pk. ; throwaway cameras, about $3.50 each ; real film is very cheap, 4 and 5 pack deals ; kids doodads are all mixed up, but generally 60% off I did not see tupperware, but didn't actually look for it. Plenty of stuff to stock those caches with though -- Hey, I have an idea , how about a "K-Mart Cache"!!?? Bob
