I get 6 volters from Costco. About $80 per battery.

$80?

I took a photo of the price and specs in Costco in February and they were $93.99. They're $98.99 now online ... going up up up ...


This was today at my Costco and yes I know the battery behind the price Tag is not a GC2.

Got to hand it to Interstate - their truth in labeling is impeccable. Their dependability IS outrageous!

I don't really mean that. They aren't all bad. [emoticon]

Many of the Sam'sClubs are closing. They are becoming full filment centers.

I am contemplating new batteries in the spring and will likely go with the gc2 Duracell from Sams Club made by Deka, or Dekas from my local Auto Value store, depending on who has the best price at the time.
I have always had good service from Deka/east penn batteries.
