In the UK - the cheap 'pound shop' mini stores - where every item is a pound
(money-wise) or less, are selling packets of batteries - you get about 100
assorted 'watch' type batteries in a sealed packet for about a pound - with
about 10 to 20 of them ok for OM bodies. I bought several packets. The don't
look as if they are going to run out of them any time soon.
