The most common brand name of battery found was Energizer ( which is the brand I recommend the most). I went with an assortment of stores to compare brands, prices and quantity with: Walgreens, Target, Walmart, Menards, Meijers, and Krogers. It wasn’t easy deciding on which stores to go to, since in my area there is a Target, Walmart, Kmart, Meijer, Rite Aid, Food Town, Krogers, Menards, Walgreens, Radio Shack… and of course every jeweler on the face of the earth. I took a look at a bunch of different businesses and stores that sold watch batteries to compare. ![]() If you don’t know the exact battery number, head over to my watch battery replacement chart and find the right model number. But generally, these are only the most common or popular batteries, like 357, 377, 379, and 2032 (which fits in garage door openers, remote controls, key FOBs, and the such). In my area, just about any national chain carries watch batteries. It usually only takes a minute or two to swap out a battery, depending on the type of watch you have ( some are a bear to do). I meanderd into Walmart in massachusetts to have a fresh battery installed in a DW-290 I wear as a beater.this is my local Walmart and you can plainly see all the batteries and tools on the counter for batt switchouts.the poor lady behind the jewelery counter assured me the lady in charge of jewlery would be back from her break in 5 min tops so what the hay I can wait.after 20 min of waiting another customer went to fetch some help,good luck.eventually a Dept Manager from Garden supply arrives and informs me that Walmart does not change batteries on Digital watches cause they have them thingy's on the caseback,thingy's I say.yes sir she replies,them little screws back there.so even though say maybe 80% of what you sell are digital watches you company policy is no batt changes cause of them there do hickies I say.now I know she is full of baloney but thats how bad things are at this company.they have the poor jewelry person in charge of the shoe dept and the bra and hoisery section,jeesh.the Garden Dept manager went back to her area I am sure to kill some more plants and give the a-okay with her green thumb raised high in the air ala fonzie.Grab a cell and you’ll be ticking in no time. ![]() I meanderd into Walmart in massachusetts to have a fresh battery installed in a DW-290 I wear as a beater.this is my local Walmart and you can plainly see all the batteries and tools on the counter for batt switchouts.the poor lady behind the jewelery counter assured me the lady in charge of jewlery would be back from her break in 5 min tops so what the hay I can wait.after 20 min of waiting another customer went to fetch some help,good luck.eventually a Dept Manager from Garden supply arrives and informs me that Walmart does not change batteries on Digital watches cause they have them thingy's on the caseback,thingy's I say.yes sir she replies,them little screws back there.so even though say maybe 80% of what you sell are digital watches you company policy is no batt changes cause of them there do hickies I say.now I know she is full of baloney but thats how bad things are at this company.they have the poor jewelry person in charge of the shoe dept and the bra and hoisery section,jeesh.the Garden Dept manager went back to her area I am sure to kill some more plants and give the a-okay with her green thumb raised high in the air ala fonzie.o|
