Poundland (in the UK) sells a set of three AAA Duracell Plus batteries for £1.
The batteries are sold in a blister pack The cells seem to have all the small print of a genuine Duracell on. However the backing card of the blister pack has some nondescript brand name on it and makes no reference to Duracell.
Are these real Duracells?
If not then why would a known chain like Pouldland really try to deliberately pass off counterfeit goods as the real thing?
