    Reminder that batteries are not “dead” until they cannot be used for anything anymore. Just because the voltage isnt high enough for that motorized kid’s toy doesnt mean it wont work in a remote or some other lower voltage application. So many batteries get tossed when they still throw a good 1.4 v.

    Even if you personally disagree with the business, given the current tarriff war, we should still be buying Canadian or encouraging others to buy Canadian.

        I’m in PEI and most grocery stores have a battery recycle bin.

        We don’t use many non-recharge batteries, but we drop whatever dies in the bin.
