Shoppers Drug Mart (http://www.shoppersdrugmart.ca) has their own Life Brand AA NiMH rechargable batteries on sale for $12.99 for 4 just now. (See page 11 of their online flyer.)
Specs: AA 1.25V 2000mAh NiMH
I picked up some of these at regular price about 4 months ago and they're every bit as good as the Energizer NiMH AA's I've been using that were almost twice the price. There's also an AC/DC charger and 4 batteries for $39.99 which seems like a pretty good deal athough not as good as some others that have been posted on RFD lately.
My first "deal" post - how did I do?

Thanks for posting. Better than everyday, BUT the Sanyo 2300ma batteries at Costco are the real deal now.

Nice catch, I looked at the flyer three times before spotting them...
If they work in conjunction with the Life/Quo 2000 point bonus (http://forums.redflagdeals.com/showthread.php?t=142891) and the March double/triple point event they are almost free. That is a HOT deal!
They may not, there were early reports that the only items that qualify are listed on the four page insert, I don't know what the latest news on that is...

How come I can't find it on page 11 of their online flyer? I only see the Duracell and the Life charger+4 batteries for 39.99. Are you from GTA?

lol! - I had the advantage of working backwards. I bought the batteries on sale yesterday and then tracked down their mention in the online flyer to make sure that it was a store-wide sale before posting to RFD. In retrospect, I probably should have noted that they were "hidden" in the copy for the charger. Sorry for the eye strain.

It looks like a car adaptor to me?

It's a cigarette / car-lighter adaptor. The charger works off both AC and auto dc.

Hmm that sounds like a good idea, not often that you see a batt charger with a lighter attachment! :)
