Boiling over is usually the result of overcharging, so check your voltage with the engine running (should be ~14.1 V).

Two things I don't think I'd buy at Costco are car batteries and underwear. Although, I see lots of positive reviews of the Kirkland batteries, which are made by Johnson Controls.
