Cheap Rechargeable AA Batteries

MyTwoDollars suggests replacing your regular AA batteries with the rechargeable kind. With prices under $1.00 per battery — why not? It is good for your wallet and good for environment! More about saving environment in my next posts…

They Are Beautiful

Do you want to impress your dear one with beautiful flowers and not spend a dime? Forget flowers.com, try this site out. It sure did the trick for me. The site is amazingly simple to use and the flowers are just gorgeous. By the way, the startup is ran by two ex-Microsoft designers who left the company where people “live in text editors all day long”. :-)

Amazon Grocery Delivery

The news spilled earlier this month that Amazon is testing waters with grocery home delivery service. TechCrunch even posted a few shots of the delivery trucks spotted in the wild. The service is currently in trial in two cities on the West cost. For those of us from the other side of the country, PeaPod has been doing it for quite a while.

Free Blog Hosts

Are you thinking of starting a blog? Mashable has collected a long list of free blog hosting platforms. Grab one here and blog away! I will personally add that if you are really serious about testing blogging waters, make sure your host supports custom domain names. It would be sad to have you all type in “http://probargainhunter.wordpress.com” in the browser. ;-)

Cheap batteries: 40 AA and 10 AAA for $7.99

Batteries.com, a web site I used many times in the past, is having a promotion. You can buy a total of 50 batteries (40 AA and 10 AAA) for just $7.99 plus $0.99 shipping (link to the offer).

They are in-house brand but they are alkaline and are just as good as any other alkaline batteries I used, Duracell or Panasonic.

Apply coupon code FINE as you get to shopping cart and see the price lower from $10.65 to $7.99. Place the order and wait for your batteries to come in mail.

You could try and stack another coupon on top (MORE8) to add 8 more batteries to your order for free. I have tested the coupon and it seem to work inconsistently. One time I got the extra batteries, but then I couldn’t repeat it after clearing the browser cache and cookies.
