Decent price for CR2032 battery (for I-key)

Any good soruce to pickup batteries for the i-key? ..either on line, or in the GTA? I see RadioShack has them for $5.99 so they must be way cheaper somewhere else!

are you really that cheap? the battery lasts you a couple years... $6/~1000 days.... less than a cent a day

JM2C, but finding fresh batteries that haven't been on the shelf for 2 yrs would be my main concern.

...as far as good price goes, I don't think you'll find a huge savings anywhere.

Check eBay. I buy specialty batteries in bulk (usually 25 or 50 packs) for less than the cost of a since battery off the shelf, and the quality is just as good.

if your in the mississauga area... try stopping buy aa electronics @ matheson/dixie (nw area on matheson). they're in the same plaza as sayal. that's probably gonna be your cheapest bet. but honestly... for around $5... why go through all the hassle? i'm sure with a small swing in gas prices u'll probably pay the difference in the pumps sometime soon anyways.

My 2-way alarm remote uses the same battery and goes through them pretty quickly. I ordered two dozen of them online and they were less than $0.75 each. The markup for in-store is unreal...

Here's one example, I got mine somewhere else but you can see how much you can save going online:

All - thanks for the e-bay/amazon/local tips

TroysG - Spending $6 on a 75 cent battey is not being cheap - its just makes no sense. And I dont think spending $50,000 on a car, is being cheap!!!
