Battery world is more expensive, I just bought one a couple weeks ago.  Mopac was 250 out the door which is the cheapest I could find.

I'd have to agree, battery world wants way too much $$$ for all of their batteries, I pretty much laughed at the guy when he mentioned how much he wanted, a few more dollars and I could buy an Odyssey.

Also Walmart carry Red-tops... haven't seen any yellow-tops there though.
The reds go for $200 a pop (or $210 depending on model I believe)

Well I'm now looking for the new rig as my wife has re-inherited the WK. I just need to see what's under the hood of the Rango as it may already have a great battery.

A N D Batteries in the SE (by Jay's shop) carries the North Star and Odyssey AGM type batteries. They're not much more than an Optima, and they are absolutely outstanding.

I followed a rainbow out to a garage and found a leprichaun. The rainbow ended in a potted cactus on his porch, but there was no gold :(
