Battery Suggestions?

Few weeks ago I was due for an oil change, I stopped into the Infiniti dealer in Tulsa, OK who let me know my battery was down to 220CCA. Its the original battery on an 08'..which after 4 years+ I can understand might need replacement. No issues cranking, except when it got down to 32F the other morning and it was slow.
The dealer in Dallas has $200 listed for a battery on thier online service request form, which I think is silly for a battery! Any suggestions on replacement brands?

Coscto carries a great battery with an excellent warranty. They run about $70.

AutoZone Gold. Haven't had any problems with it in the last year that I have owned it.

Yep. I picked one up at the Costco in Frisco two Saturdays ago and it ran me $72 (I think). Check out the DIY. It's a must if you've not replaced the battery before. It's a little more complicated than other cars I've worked on in the past.

The cold we had two weeks ago killed my battery.

Although this doesn't matter much, but I noticed that it says 24F. Isn't the battery size in our sedans Group 35, and not 24?

Both should fit, but the OEM fitment should be 35?
