Had exact same experience. Drove 60 miles to visit my daughter. We went over to store, came out dead battery.
Someone offer to jump start me (I carry jumper cables) and off I went. Had to jump start to come home the 60 miles in the dark with head lights on. Good thing my alternator was strong
I now display battery voltage with my Torque app on my phone. Shows sitting voltage and running voltage. That would have told me my battery was on the way out as well as the state of my alternator
