Thanks for the reply.

Do alternators sound a certain way when the battery is charging as opposed to when it's not? The guy that suggested I check the fuses said that he could "hear the battery charging" when we last had to jump it.

I've looked and looked, but I can't seem to find anything left on when I shut the car down.

Pulling the battery cable does seem to help, and I haven't had to jump the battery since last sunday. If the car were running on one charge (and then small charges everytime I drive), then the car should still eventually run out of juice, and I'll have to jump it again? The battery display on the dash is still up there, at maybe 16 or so (it drops to about 12 before I turn it on, and then jumps up to 16 while I drive).

I'll be sure to head to Autozone though. Any idea on whether they charge to do something like that?

(oh I think it's irrelevant by now, but it's a Regal Limited, not Custom. I had forgotten lol).
