Walmart, CostCo or Sam's Club.

I bought a highly rated car battery from CostCo B&M for $40 with free installation and free 72 month warranty.

Walmart. Forget Kmart, or anyone else whose batteries are made by Exide.

The Walmart Everstart batteries are made by Johnson Controls, a decent company.

Free installation? LOL :) Takes, what, all of 2 minutes to install! :)

The free installation is nice esp for car novices like me who barely know how to turn the car on :D

A Kmart going out of business. Just picked up a Champion Battery for $35 after the 50% off and there was no turning in of the old battery.

and they not only honor their warranty, but when my two year old battery died, they gave me an upgrade to better battery than the original one i bought

I bought battery from Autozone brand "duralast", on the battery says 2year replacement warranty and why does it say 7 year warranty, what happens after that 2years?
