If it's a 2032, Shoprite has them (at least here in NJ)

It's hard to find a store around here that doesn't have a 2032 battery.

All the Radio Shack's around me closed. I picked up my replacement batteries from Amazon. But you can also get them from any Walmart or Target stores. They are not hard to find.

I was on a road trip and got dashboard message that my key fob battery was low. The next town I drove into I stopped at the Chev dealer. The parts guy installed a Duracell 2032 and put it through his programming device for the price of the battery: $4.99.

Wow, no kidding.

Even here in the boonies our CVS, Dollar General, probably the independent auto supply, hardware store, maybe supermarket? Seven Eleven? has them.
