Easiest plan yet is to, go to the nearest Sears Auto center with a "Battery Express" set up. Have them load test the battery for free. If you need a new one you can buy a Sears battery or leave and buy one someplace else if you want. Of course you will need a jump to get it started again!

There is nothing wrong with Sears batteries, just remember that as in everything else, you get what you pay for, and the price of a battery is directly proportional to it's longevity. (And amount of lead) And, if you watch them carefully they are unlikely to screw the job up. However, you might want to put some plastic sheet on the floor and swivel the seat around for them!
