My last battery purchase (April 2016) was 2 - group 24 (12vdc) Duracell from "Batteries + Bulbs". They were on sale for about $70ea., if memory serves. That said, I've had good luck with the group 24 Walmart batteries, also.
If I were in your situation.....
I would buy a new 12vdc group 24 and KEEP the old battery, for now. You will likely pay a "core charge" of about $10, by not returning the old battery. When you get home from your trip, THEN return the old battery and get the $10 "core charge" refunded. This will give you a spare/backup battery, if you need it (at no cost).
Good luck & safe travels!
