    picked these up for my wife - they're perfect for all the assorted holiday decorations. They're a good balance between the performance of top alkalines & value of 'cheap' alkalines.

    A quick review for Best Buy Essentials AA

    I recently tried the Best Buy essentials™ AA Batteries (48-Pack) and have mixed feelings about them. While these batteries don’t seem to last as long as the name-brand ones, they are still quite handy for quick, short-term use. They come in a large pack, which is convenient and cost-effective for those situations where you need batteries immediately and don’t want to spend a lot. Overall, they are a good option to have on hand for less demanding devices or for times when you need a quick and affordable solution.

    I bought these AA batteries for my TV remote and I have to say, they're the most electrifying thing to happen to my living room since my cat discovered the joys of chasing laser pointers. These batteries are like the Energizer Bunny on steroids - they just keep going and going and going. I've been using them for weeks and they haven't even hinted at running out of juice. I think they might be secretly powering my neighbor's Christmas lights too. If you're looking for batteries that will outlast your ex's annoying phone calls, these are the ones for you. Highly recommend!

    If you can do the math on this on a per battery price, you'll see you save money. If you can't do the math, just don't worry about it. Anyhow these AA batteries will work on any device that takes AA batteries.

    I've used this store brand for years with no problems. The price is right too, and sometimes they go on really big sale. They come in a handy case, so they don't roll around in your drawer.

    I was skeptical buying off brand batteries because let's face we we have all done it and realized the couple bucks saved wasn't worth it , but in this instance I saved quite a bit by not purchasing the enfamouse energizer bunny brand that my household swears buy. I gave it a chance and I'm happy I did. These batteries are just as good as the energizer brand and a fraction of the cost . Do it SAVE money your not sacrificing quality worth this purchase.

    It is a Best Buy brand alkaline batteries. To compare its life with other batteries, I used one of these batteries in a wall clock and a battery of another type in another wall clock of the same type. I found this battery could last longer. However, this may not be a fair comparison as the other type of battery is not alkaline battery.
