Default WTD: Source of cheap NiMH batteries

I need to get hold of a few AA NiMH batteries (probably about 10-12 of
them) they don't need to be high capacity 1300mAh would do. Just for
kids toys (which seem to be multiplying rapidly).

Regards,
Jason.

Dunno what counts as cheap for you, but I bought my last lot from
Strikalite:

Service was good.

Remember if you're replacing alkalines with re-chargeables that the cell
voltage isn't the same, so they may not perform quite as well as with
fresh disposables.

I suppose that why ToysRUs is one of the cheapest places to buy batteries.
I'd recommend 7DayShop too.
