Getting More Family Time with Duracell Optimum Batteries

Family time is a huge part of our weeks. We have certain activities we do together as a family. We do board games, charades, movie nights with a popcorn bar, indoor s‘mores night and video games’ night. The most popular family night activity in our house is video game night when we play Xbox. The whole family gets to sit around and play against each other.

We have a variety of games we get to choose from. We have a method to select which games we choose as a family. We set aside one hour for family time before we start our nighttime routine. The kids wake up asking what the family night event is today. We have so much fun until the batteries die in one of the controllers. When you’re playing with your kids, dead batteries can be the end of the world. If you know anyone who plays Xbox, they will tell you how easily you can go through batteries.​ ​

On a recent trip to Walgreens, I came across Duracell Optimum batteries. Being an informed shopper, I know that Duracell is the #1 trusted brand, so I knew the new Duracell Optimum batteries I was picking up would power our family game night for many nights to come. Duracell Optimum batteries are available in both AA and AAA sizes. They conveniently come in packs of 4, 6 and 12 in resealable packaging for easy storage. The multiple varieties ensure you will be able to get the size that is right for you and your family. Versus Coppertop AA/AAA batteries Duracell Optimum batteries deliver extra life* in some devices or extra power* in others to power through all your family’s electronic needs, like family game night. ​ ​

Now that we choose Duracell Optimum batteries, our family video game nights last longer and we don’t have any upset family members. Our controllers no longer stop in the middle of the game. We now get more time together as a family to enjoy time with each other. Next time you’re at your local Walgreens, be sure to grab a pack of Duracell Optimum batteries and get your family more time together.
