Saturday afternoon the kiddos were bored and since I wanted the TV off I needed to find them something to do. I called a friend and they were home so we got ready to visit. I walked outside and realized that The Teen had my car. DH was off somewhere and I could not find my key to the van. The Green Bean has had a dead battery for months. I have not felt like dealing with it so I left it. I actually had been planning on selling it but never got around to running the ad because of the dead battery. I asked a friend to give me a jump and off we went. When we left my friends home we had to jump the car again. On the way home I stopped at Advance Auto and bought a battery for $80 which included installation. I was pretty happy that I did not have to do it myself. I could have but, I did not want too. When the guy pulled out the battery there was a sticker on it that said 5-05. Since I know that most batteries come with a 3 year warranty I was surprised to see this. The guys at Advance told me that this battery came from Auto Zone and I should take it back there because they will give me a refund. I listened to them and took the battery to Auto Zone. They gave me $54 back for my dead battery. I was very happy.

They actually gave you a refund??? I cannot even IMAGING getting a refund around here. For anything, fot that matter... Which is quite unfair ifyou think of it.
that's "imagine" sorry :-)
These two stores are almost next door to each other. We used to shop at the Auto Zone store all the time, but since the Advance store opened about 2 years ago I only go there.
Yes, he gave me a refund. He did say that usually they only give a new battery, but since I had just bought one what was I going to do with another?
