How many clocks do you change when you "Fall back" or "Spring Forward"?
Here is what we change:
1)The clock-radio-alarm clock I've had since the 1990s. I wake up to the radio every work day.
2)Oven clock
3)Microwave Clock
4)The DVD clock in my living room
5)The Disney Clock in my kitchen
6)The clock in our den
So.................6 clocks at home and then one at school on Monday

I also change the batteries in my smoke detectors (I still have 2 that aren’t the 10 year batteries).

How can the battery company say the batteries will last 10 years? Even though they have improved it and it will last much longer.....doesn't the battery life vary by what you put it in? If I put it in my tv clicker it might last a different duration than the battery in a clock.

When you're the leader, you don't have to follow.

I have a couple of smoke detectors like that. They come with a dedicated permanent 10 year battery. When the battery goes, you chuck the detector and buy a new one.

If I had those smoke detectors, I might just move out after 9 years and let the new owner change um all a few months after they moved in 😄🙃:D

In precisely 15.5854 seconds, there will be a leap in the space-time continuum. If my calculations are correct, and if the flux capacitor operates successfully, 2:00 a.m. shall no longer exist, and instead we will be instantaneously transported to 3:00 a.m.

Great Scott, we did it! We have successfully traveled exactly one hour into the future! Now I need some sleep.

Most of ours change automatically. I only have to change my alarm clock. I don't worry about the one on the oven. We don't change for a few weeks, though.

What about watches? I have 6 (different styles--all cheapo, Timex ;) ).

Clocks: stove, kitchen wall clock, bedroom alarm clock, and small clock in bathroom (that one is critical -- shows me each work morning, that I'd better hurry up and get ready, as I'm running late again ... :p)

We’ve been in our current home for almost 17 years, but I automatically buy new toilet seats and smoke detectors every time I move.

When my parents came over to see the house we bought - it needed work so we weren’t moving in for a few weeks - they showed up with 2 toilet seats, a soap pump toilet paper and a roll of paper towels. They said if you are going to be here working you are going to need these.

Most of ours change automatically. I only have to change my alarm clock. I don't worry about the one on the oven. We don't change for a few weeks, though.

My microwave clock is right above my microwave - I program both and then simultaneously hit the “start” button so they are exactly the same.

My fitbit doubles as my watch and it is linked to my phone that updates automatically so it updates too.
