National i believe. These aren't the 6 + 2 packs you normally see, your getting double that for £1.50
Yes pound land do batteries for £1 but quality batteries for 50p more? This is a bargain

Ditto.
Apparently Duracell make different batteries for different shops - there is some website which shows all the batteries for sale in the UK shops and compares them. The cheaper ones often come near the top oddly enough.
Might go for these though if I am in Iceland as my local Poundshop has stopped doing the Panasonic 12 packs - 10 =2 'free' - for a quid.

The amount of times ive bought these and forgot and left them in Christmas ornaments and following year, leaked all over and damage the insides meaning I cant use them any more, need to remember to take out when not using. Guess you get what you pay for lol

I've tried Duracell & Panasonic AA batteries from the poundshop in the XB1 controller. Surprisingly the Panasonic ones lasted longer.

Doesn't over surprise me after some research on AA batteries some time ago. Which Panasonics were they?
Voted hot btw. Whats the shelf life?

Red & white packaging usually 8 or 12 for £1

In all fairness, most alkaline batteries will perform similarly. I use Wilkinson's own brand which are 50p for a 4 pack of AA or AAA. They might not last quite as long as the big brands (they may do though), but the price:life ratio is far better.
Having said that, this is a very good price for duracell.

Great price!
I can't find a use for AA batteries these days as all my doofs take AAA .
