        No stock instore at Coburg VIC

    Very good price. My smoke alarm only "officially" recommends this battery and one Energizer so will be good to stock up given they have a long shelf life.

    • Good price indeed. If the battery gives 9v/12v does it really matter the branch?

      • Guess not as people are climbing all over this deal…

      apparently a couple of people die each year from doing that ..

        I think you would need underlying health issues to be killed by one of these batteries.
        Ive been zapped by 1000V and been fine.

          It's the current that wants blood

        • +1

          I cant imagine a 9V battery having a high current. Although apparently 15mA can be lethal.

    good find…. time to replace fire alarm batteries anyway!

        He picked them up even before this was posted.

          Must have thought it was a bargain then… He/she should let everyone know. But how?

        • someone doesn't seem to understand the difference between am and pm

    • +1

      Hmm, so it expires mid 2015? That means they were made around 2010, so they've been sitting around for three years.

      Still, it's a great bargain at $1.50!

    cheers, need to top up my guitars' tuner/pickup.. couldn't pick a store to pick up from using firefox but worked in chrome

    • works in Firefox 4 me, so u may have to disable an add-on or something?

    I bought $2 in the $2-shop (no brand), so this deal is amazing.

  • +1

    thanks op!

  • bought ten, thanks

    • actually, bought the 10 online, didn't realise you can't collect till working day.
      the lady said I could cancel the online purchase and buy instore, but the subiaco store didn't have any in stock anyway

      • turns out my 10 where on back order, I called up the office works head office and they said it was a discontinued product which I will never get. not happy. anyone else in the same boat?

        • finally received an email stating it was ready for collection.
          picked them up no problems.

  • r they loose? or with package

    The usual good deal on 9V batteries is Varta brand at Bunnings.
    Not quite this cheap, but way better than normal Duracell/Energizer.

  • None in stock at Carlton, Sydney branch :(

  • Great deal and a perfect timing for me.
    Bought 20 so saved me heaps.
    Thanks OP.

    99c C Size batteries anyone?

  • +1

    These and the Kodak brand of the same batteries are $2 as normal price, every day at Cheap as Chips, in case anyone wondering.

  • No stock in belconnen :-/

  • Good for smoke alarm

  • No stock in the Bondi Junction store in NSW. I'd suggest to order online for a store pick up if you are keen and live in the area.

  • Placed in my smoke alarm, it should last to 2023 if house fire doesn't consume it first.
    BTW. Ok for click and collect locally.

  • Are these actually Coppertops or regular Duracells'? I've got some Coppertops and there's a silver band between the black and "copper" bits with the word "duralock".

    • i received duralock duracell batteries with my smoke alarms. apparently they have a long shelf life (10 years). besides that i don't know if they are any better than the coppertops.

  • I went to O/W Oxley and was told they don't carry the single one just 2in a pack which was nearly $8 so i bought online and they will be delivered to Oxley in two days for me to collect ah! life is getting complicated

  • +1

    Needed these for my TENS machine.

  • C size also available for $1.00. Great price.

  • says online only now…

  • Bought 4 online ($6) and collected Saturday from local OW before they even had the order. Very helpful people. :-) Thanks OP and OW!!

  • useless guys,

    I just go my order

    1.) It came in a plastic bag with the batteries in there like some backyard job (i.e no original packing)

    2.) The 9V battery i have expire in 2015…so with only 18months life left. Not to mention they usually have a 10 year expiry and they discharge per year, 18months is almost useless.

    • Especially if yours has saliva all over the terminals :S

      Great, I'm wondering if my 10 will arrive in a bag too. Will let you know.

    • I just picked up mine too. I bought 8 of them and they gave it to me in a small cardboard box that also contained the original battery packaging within. One full box contains 12 x 9V batteries in total. The Expiry Date for all of mine was March 2015, with a batch build date of August 2011.

      For the price I got them for (ie. 8 batteries for $12) I can't really complain. :)

    • Got mine today too, exp. March 2015 as well.
      I've ordered 20 batteries & couple of magazine holders.
      They came in huge box, about 3 times too big.
      All batteries were scattered on the bottom of the box, some even had few dints in them.
      Good price, fast shipping,but pathetic packaging.

    • Yeah my four were in like a sandwich bag looking ziplock. Thought it'd be in proper packaging.

      • Is there something over the terminals to prevent the batteries from getting shorted?

        • Nup, just moving around in the plastic bag which came in a box. Thought it was pretty shady =/

        • sounds so dodge!

      • note to self: take a multimeter to test the voltages when i pick up mine

    I just picked mine up toda. My 12 batteries came in a Duracell box:
    http://files.ozbargain.com.au/upload/9075/18118/duracell-9v.…

    Expiry is Mar 2015.

  • My order of 24 batteries came through , in two Duracell boxes just this week expiry is Jan 2018.

    • Same here, in Duracell box with 2018 expiry.

      • Damn the both of you! Now I have to buy more 9V devices to use mine up before 2015. :)

  • I almost forgot about mine. Just got an email yesterday after one month saying its ready for collection.

    So i showed up at the local OW, showed the email to the guy and mentioned I received an email to come pick up my package. I said "Hi, here is the email that says my package is ready to collect." the guy replied "But did you receive a call to ask you to come?" He then went to have a look anyway at the back and found my package. I'm like WTF was that about?

    Then like some of the guys here the batteries came without packaging in a paper envelope. I have 9 x 9V batteries with the terminal exposed rattling around in a paper envelope, seriously??

    • Next time order in lots of 12. :)
