Over 16,000 five-star fans say this dedicated container makes keeping track of batteries a lot easier — and the tester helps ensure you're not holding onto duds. This early Black Friday deal comes just in time for holiday toy-buying season.
This set comes in three colors: Get it in black or green for this price, or snag it in gray for a bit more.
Whether you're storing shorts and sundresses in the winter or puffer coats and comforters in the summer, these roomy storage bags will keep everything nice and organized from season to season.

"I can't say enough how these containers have changed my life," raved one shopper. "These are handy to reorganize your closets, bedroom or anywhere in your house. They are strong and are stackable. I would recommend these."
Why keep tripping over bottles of shampoo and conditioner when these handy shower shelves exist? This top-selling set claims to hold up to 40 pounds (that's a lot of shampoo) and comes with five storage racks in different sizes for all of your bathtime essentials. All you need to do is apply the included adhesives to stick 'em on the wall.
This small but mighty chain saw is powerful enough to take down tree branches, yet weighs under 2.5 pounds. It's also cordless. Overgrown shrubs, you've met your match. This is the lowest price we've seen.
This super popular set is down to one of its lowest prices ever (over 60% off) — and comes with just about every type of blade a home cook could need: a 3-inch paring knife, 5-inch serrated utility knife, 7-inch santoku knife, 8-inch chef's knife, 8-inch bread knife, six 4.5-inch steak knives, a professional honing steel, kitchen shears and a hardwood knife block. Whew! Henckels has been crafting quality knives for over a century, so you can bet the brand knows what it's doing.
"Finally, sharp (and safe) knives," wrote a happy home cook. "I have been used to ordinary knives until my brother, who is a chef, convinced me to upgrade to Henckels. I must admit, I was a bit nervous at first, worrying about cutting myself, but the grip on these knives kept my hands from slipping. They are extremely sharp and do a great job in the kitchen."
Never have a dull moment in the kitchen again, thanks to this No. 1 bestselling knife sharpener. Equipped with three slots for sharpening, repairing, straightening and polishing, it'll take your old blades from obsolete to like new in just a few swipes. Plus, it comes with a handy cut-resistant glove to spare you from painful nicks, and it happens to be 53% off (one of its best prices ever!).
"This is an incredible tool," raved a happy home cook. "Five-year-old expensive knives that I knew were dull feel like new — I didn’t realize how bad they were until I cut an onion right after sharpening them with this tool. Amazing."
Always know how many batteries you have — and whether they work, thanks to the included tester.
While saving a bit of money upfront is nice, you'll save so much more in the long run. How so? Well, now you'll be able to track down all the batteries you've been stockpiling so you won't have to buy new ones for quite some time.
Scavenging for batteries inevitably ends with three AAs and a random AAA that doesn't fit your device. (Just us?) This organizer makes it easy to keep track of all of your random batteries, regardless of size. It also has a tester, so you can check to see whether there's a charge — after all, who knows how long those Ds have been living in that old holiday decoration you've just unearthed?
The case can hold 45 AA batteries, 25 AAA batteries, four 9-volt batteries, eight C batteries, six D batteries and five watch-style batteries. The lid is clear, so you can see what you have at a glance. And while it can easily be stored in a drawer, you can also mount this battery organizer on the wall (perhaps inside a closet) so that it's always within easy reach. If someone in your life is a bit of a tech whiz and enjoys tinkering with gadgets, they'll love having something like this readily available.
More than 16,000 Amazon shoppers have given this organizing dynamo a five-star rating. Here's a sampling of their reasons.
"Just what we needed to organize all our batteries," one shopper said. "No more searching in the junk drawer. Great capacity."
"It's so nice to have my batteries in one place and organized by size instead of having them thrown in a bin and digging around looking for what I needed," another reviewer raved. "And I love having the tester."
As one hyperbolic reviewer puts it: "I used this product to save my marriage. If I had to answer one more time, 'Honey, where are the batteries?' Or if I did let the spouse know where the batteries are kept, then the batteries would get used up until I needed one, and then there wouldn't be any left in the drawer. Now they're out where we can see ... I know when we're getting low, and I can buy more before I actually need one."
Another fan said, "I love this product because I have so many batteries, some regular some rechargeable. It helped me to get all the batteries organized. I would find batteries around the house, so this gave me a place to put them. The tester helped find the good batteries so I didn’t have to test with a battery-operated item. Definitely worth the investment for me."
"My only complaint is that I'd like to be able to add more D cell batteries. There is room for eight," one reviewer pointed out. On the flip side, another shopper mentioned that they "could have used more AA and AAA space since I don't need many Cs and Ds these days."
"It meets my demands on knowing what I have at a glance," commented a final five-star shopper. "Easy to restock when I see I'm running out. Testing is easy. The only downside is its bulkiness, to be expected."
