Your alternator is not charging the battery like it's suppossed to or the battery cables might be corroded and may need to be changed or cleaned, but the good news is autozone can recharge your new battery back up for free. Also make sure after you change the alternator and clean the battery cables and put the battery back in have the guy at auto zone test the new alternator before you buy it to make sure it works properly.

98 grand prix starter just clicks has new starter an battery starts every now an then?

If the starter clicks, but doesn't start the car, that indicates that the starter solenoid is working, but the commutator that actually spins the engine is not. Take the starter back and have it tested. The battery could also be at fault. If the battery doesn't supply enough power you'll get the same result. check the battery voltage first should be 12.6 volts if not jump the battery see if it starts.if it does bad battery.
