Best price for batteries?

Maybe a somewhat off-topic...
I'm using lots of AAA and AA batteries for this hobby and other home applications. I seem to buy batteries when needed for a very high price. I was wondering where one buys AAA and AA brand names batteries for less?
Online research is somewhat difficult as batteries come in various packaging.

Places like BigLots and Tuesday Morning normally carry brand name batteries with deep discounts and rebates. Recently bought a multipack (18 I think) of AA Duracells for around $6 with a $3 rebate coupon attached.

I'd recommend going with some NiMH rechargables and a quick charger. Thats what I use for my digital cameras and some other devices. Cost more initially but last a long time and with a good charger, can be recharged in 10-15 min. Get extra sets, cause you don't want to recharge or use them when they are warm.
