I hit the walmart in porter and get their warranty, $125 this was two years ago and I just recently picked another one up and it was still under warranty so I got it for free and replaced it myself. 4951

@JerryJustice: Walmart or Sam's Club is usually cheapest.  In my opinion, all batteries are about the same when it comes to longevity.  Some live long and prosper, some don't.  I found the cheapest right in Kingwood to be at the Advance auto parts on Northpark.  They were about $30 cheaper for my car.

@buffaloglenn: Right-my last STS (04) had the battery under the rear seat-out of the weather and the engine heat-still had the original battery in it when I sold it in 2012.

Having just bought two we found Walmart the best deal but do NOT get the cheap one! We had to return both within a month bc they died.
 
Saving money is great but with batteries don't get the cheaper, less year battery. I did like the warranty they have though. 4951
