   I have looked at the "Everstart" batteries on Walmart's site.  From what some   
   say, they are identical to the Sears Die-Hard brand.  I don't have a CostCo   
   membership, so it probably wouldn't be worth going there.   
      
   My current Sears Die-Hard battery has been in my car exactly 3 years.  It has   
   not had a problem since I re-charged it, but I do expect that after I let it   
   sit all of next week, it won't start again.  It has been still working this   
   week, but it is probably because it only has been sitting over night.     
      
   Throught the history of my car and battery replacements, I historically have   
   replaced them every 3 to 3 1/2 years.
