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.
