Good price but 'Simply' batteries are not very good.

wow, inflation, poundland, £3

'Simply' is another term for 'No frills'

Avoid...

you can get 12 good to go rechargeable batteries from 7dayshop for £7. They will last for many recharges. so better value.

Ikea, Wilko or even Primark branded alkaline batteries outperform Duracell Simply ones and they are cheaper.

Shouldn't it be a pound ?

Haha so Poundland everything is £1 no longer applies

99% still is £1. It's just the 1% that isn't.

Cold - they have always been this price in Poundland (sometimes they make it a minimum purchase offer).
Better capacity batteries can be had much cheaper (Duracell is a good brand, however Duracell Simply range is not!)
I would recommend Ikea branded batteries, there are many battery comparison sites out there and Ikea brand comes out best £/mAh....

Nope, Duracell Simply is worse than Wilko's
Duracell Simply: 1908 mAh
Ikea Alkalisk: 2269 mAh
Wilko powerplus EXTRA: 2033mAh

I knew somebody would reply with a link to a table of data on some website. I have tried Wilko batteries in a real World environment and they are crap. That's the long and short of it regardless of what your lovely table says.

Poundland have done 6 AA kodak alkalines for £1 which are better batteries and cheaper but even if they are only 4 in the pack still better than this offer.

I always buy my AAA and AA batterys from poundland, kodak alkaline batterys are great, and sometimes you get 2 extra batterys free! Refuse to buy anything else.
