I'm planning on replacing my battery this coming fall as routine maintenance, thought I'd let everyone know that JC whitney has the optima's at a really good price. Check it out.

OMG !!! what a bargain!!!................if only i lived over there I would buy 2 and have one for spare!!!!.......pfftt!!!!!!!

 

Thanks for posting that, if anyone misses the sale and you live near a Costco, they have it at about the same price.

 

Only for the RedTop? EE sells them for $140 normally. I've been thinking of picking up a Blue Top at some point, too bad that isn't on sale.

 

I was looking at them at Costco yesterday and I believe they were actually a few dollars Less.

 

Never been to a Costco, but from the sounds of it I wish I had one nearby.

Costco is similar to a Sams Club but they seem to carry more upscale products, I notice they tend to be in more affluent neighborhoods too, at least around here. Not sure if they're totally a good thing, Ioften spend more money there than I intend to.

 

If Costco sells Optima, go to your local NAPA and get them to price match on an Exide Spiral Cell. A better battery IMO.

 

advanced auto parts has them in virginia for that price all day everyday. i dont know about the rest of the country.

 

Whatever you buy, get it direct cause shipping will kill you.
If you want to step up a few more notches buy a Yellow Top, stronger and will handle a greater draw.
