the smoke detector won't stop beeping

I was awoken last night to annoying high pitched beeping once every minute...apparently the battery in my smoke detector has died and needs to be replaced.

But, seriously, who keeps 9 Volt batteries on hand? I have AA and AAA and even C batteries, but no 9 Volt. So, I took the battery out of the detector thinking that would stop the beeping...but alas, no such luck as it is wired into the electricity. So, since I forgot about the beeping before I got home tonight, I have to run out to the store tonight.

How annoying is that??

Yes that does suck. The only thing that sucks more is when it's really high on teh ceiling...and you have to pull out a ladder walk up a flight of stairs then try to get it to shut up.
