Where in "The World" can you find camera batteries?

[metadog]

Hi! I am staying in Walt Disney World and my Nikon S9100 battery just bit it. I guess it is over charged or "exhausted." I don't have a car... Is there any place on campus that sells brick batteries? Thanks!

I am not aware of any battery pack sales in the World. Due to the old Kodak sponsorship they used to only sell a limited number of Kodak cameras.
Wegoshop.com might be an option if the battery is available at Walmart. (websites mentions calling for same day service). But buying a few cheap replacements on Amazon before the trip may of been a cheaper option.
You might call a few DTD stores in case, but nothing pops in my head.

There's a camera/electronics store in the outlet mall on SR-535. This wouldn't be too expensive of a cab ride from Downtown Disney. Call them first, though, I had a list of three things I was looking for when I went in there recently and they didn't carry any of them. I do remember getting a battery from them years ago for my Canon Rebel XT.

Someone recently mentioned an outfit that rents cameras and delivers them to WDW resorts -- Kingdom Camera Rentals. I don't know anything about them, I just remember the recent post. It's a long shot, but it may be worth giving them a call. Even if they won't sell you a battery, maybe they'd have a decent deal on renting a camera to get you through the remainder of your trip.

What ever you do don't go to those electronic tourist trap stores like on International Drive, talk about to rip you off. Guy wanted $30 for camera cleaning brush that I got on Amazon for less than $10

Amazon prime. $79 a year = free 2 day shipping. Pay an extra 3.99 for 1 day shipping.

That's what I would do, in may 2011 I forgot one of my larger SD cards, so I ordered one and had it shipped while I was on the road. It was waiting for me when I arrived, lol.

Amazon prime is well worth it IMO. Just beware, not everything is a 'deal'
