Yes, if you have a membership ($) plus your time and gas at $3.50+ per gallon. As you wish...
Alkaline batteries have a 10 year shelf life. Pick up the batteries the next time you're going to the store anyway.

I like the deal based on the ease of it, green for OP.

Decent enough price if you actually BUY Duracell AA and AAA batteries. After 3 months of Staples Free After Rewards batteries, I have enough to power a small city.

Yes, I concur. If you have a Staples Rewards account, you shouldn't have to 'buy' batteries in these sizes.

There's always three or four duds in those open box packages. I believe some steals them out of confiscated toys or something then sells them.

Yup. I got several hundred batteries, Free After Rewards, plus the annual Duracell $25 GC on top of that... and then peddled most of the batteries on CL to make it a pretty nice MM. Same as last year.
