That was Eveready.

I use Costco AA cells. They're made by Toshiba, and cost less than 25 cents.

I have one old Eveready Cat With 9 Lives C cell battery and one old Burgess nine volt battery.Burgess M6 battery, thin cardboard cover, red and white and black, vertical white and black stripes around the sides of the Burgess battery.It has two snap on/snap off style connectors on top of the battery, similar to modern day nine volt batteries, but the connectors on my old Burgess battery are spaced further apart, distance wise.There is a Howard's (Howard's discount stores, they went out of business around here years ago) store price sticker/label on the Burgess battey, $1.47.I think my Burgess battery dates back to the 1950s.I think my old Eveready C cell Cat With 9 Lives battery dates back to the

1960s.About two or three years ago, I saw a website which has the logos of old, old batteies of various brand names and you can print out the logos with your computer printer and glue the logos on modern day batteries.

A couple of buddies of mine collect old, old Railroad related thingys.One of them owns some old, old big glass batteies like the kind that the Railroads and other companies used to use many, many years ago. cuhulin

Dang, you're right. Last time I saw them was more years ago than I care to recount. :)

Kirkland. I used to use them a lot. Then Costco quit stocking them in the stores near me. That's when I found the RayOVac stuff and started using it. Costco has since started carrying the Kirkland AAs again, but they're 40 for $9.99, and I get half the life out of them that I get out of the RayOVacs. Back when the alternative was the more expensive Evereadys, it was a bargain to go Costco and just change batteries twice as often, but since the equivalent of 60 Kirklands costs the same as (or less than, when on sale) the 40 Kirklands, I make out better with the RayOVacs.

Most times, 30 RayOVac AA cost $9.99 at Menard's. They occasionally go on sale or have a rebate, making them even cheaper.

I dunno about there, but here in the UK Duracell Procells are generally on sale from wholesalers at two packs for the price of one
