Battery cores

CARQUEST tells us to look for a new part number to soon be added to our system - BAT-CORE it will be an innovative way to handle cores that --the more I think of it - the more I personally like like it.

We could suggest that they add 2 additional numbers ( one for small batteries like U1's and one for 8d's and smilar ) - but the one part will cover most of what we need.

A customer comes in and buys a batter - we bill the battery and the CORE part - we have to remember to do the CORE - but after a could of reminders and a few 'inches of string wound on your finger as a reminder (well-that part could be optional and only for the really hard to remember staff :-)

The Customer brings the old battery back with the bill and we credit the core ... we get the cores back to recycling and the environment is better for it all.

Watch for this part to be announced. The core price will be $5.95 -- in between Wal-Mart's $8.00 and CTC's $5.00 core
