2 years worth of batteries

[animalone]

I guess the next fun job will be figuring out how to get them to the recycling company now that Royal Mail wont let me post them

I was hoping this was 'guess the number of batteries and win a Seiko'.

There used to be a couple of guys that traveled the country from top to bottom buying them over the counter, haven't seen either for years though

Good idea, not sure I have the patience to count them all.

Don't most supermarkets have a battery recycling bin inside?

They do, but most of these are silver oxide batteries so there will be value in the bag, last time I had a clear-out there was about £85 in scrap silver (and I could send by royal mail, but rules have changed)

It was D-MMEX last time but I just had an email to say they didn't handle these anymore so currently looking for another recycler (think Crown refining will take them, will email them tomorrow and find out)

Just go with whatever number I come up with

Are my of them genuine original Rolex batteries from an Oyster Perpetual?

I'll give you £20 each if so!

I have counted them now (had to remove all the lithium cells so thought what the hell why not)
Anyway have posted a want to by for stuff that I can sponge free to give away in a charity game.

In my country, almost every convenience store has a bin for empty batteries, I'm really surprised there not something like that in the UK/Scotland.

You missed the point.

they are silver oxide batteries so worth scrapping for money.

Can't say I'd blame the PO given fire risk - easy for them to link up to form a high voltage pile, been there done that.

2yrs worth... WTF, do you run your TV on them or something ;-) ?

There is. And Post Offices, supermarkets, leisure centres, electrical shops etc etc.
