Battery

[LBS]

I just want everyone out there to know that a 108 month warranty Walmart car battery is worth $5 if you lose the receipt.

That's funny because you get more than that as a trade in.

At my local Wal-Mart, they put one of those plastic packing list envelopes on the side of the battery, and then advise you to put your receipt in there, so it'll always be with the battery...

...but it's up to you to follow through.

Seeeeemmmmmssss to me that they would be able to use the bar code reader thing and look in their computer to see the purchase history.

I think the walmart guy was just unintelligent.

At a mass merchandiser like Wal-Mart, without a receipt they can't even tell which store sold it...or which one it might have been shoplifted from [people HAVE stolen stranger stuff]. They're not like AutoZoo, who at least has your phone number to refer back to...Wally World has NO WAY to track your purchase back to you, or even if you DID purchase it, without that receipt. So they concentrate on CYA instead of customer service.

Every battery has a manufacturer's date code on the side ie A-08= Jan 2008. Usually, battery retailers will use that for warranty issues.

Battery cores are $10 now in most places...

Acid is hard on paper. Most receipts fade away in one year.

They must've changed their adjustment procedure
when you don't have a receipt. They can tell how old the battery is and usually give you credit on another battery. Their trade-in battery is worth $7.00. I have 3 of their batteries. Even have one of them on a garden tractor. Hal

If purchased with a card, it will show when where and how much, with a SKU number, go to the records!!! They will make it right. JimN

I do not even like the way Aut-Zone track you purchases with phone numbers. I have an unlisted number and do not what ANY chase of a telamarketer getting it. What I do is take an electric engraver and engrave the ticker number, date of purchase, and store number on the battery. This way you will ALWAYS have the info. On the flip side of this, the ONLY batrteries I buy are from AUTO-ZONE.Very good batteries. Their 425 CA L/G battery last about 4 to 5 years making them the cheapest L/G battery you can buy IMHO.
