Costco Batteries; observation
Went into the local Costco this morning to check out the batteries and they only sell Interstate, no more Kirkland badge.
Forum Discussion
- They sell whatever is the cheapest deal they can get.
- Interesting. Most likely the same battery without the Kirkland sticker.

Yes, I wonder if there was much of a price difference?gbopp wrote:

The 6v Golf Carts were $89 with 15.00 core. I've been told Interstate's are Johnson Control batteries.Ron3rd wrote:

At one point Kirklands where made by Johnson Control's. Quite possible not all the time though.- Yes and they are the low end 208 not the 232 :(

Good to know.- Johnson Outta Control, is getting most of their batteries under contract from Mexico. LTH. But they are shipping in recycled lead. R.R. car fulls. If they could get batteries in Bangladesh with zero environmental controls and five dollar a day labor, they would do it in a heartbeat.

Yup, a old friend just bought Interstate's from the local RV shop vrs CostCo because of that difference.- I just bought Exide from Home Depot for an Explorer. $40 cheaper than area auto parts locations. Unknown how that compares to Costco.
