Default Huyndai Sonata 2011 have to jump start almost every day with new battery.

Hi,
I have hyundai sonata 2011. Few days back i parked in shopping parking lot came out in 10 minutes and car wont start.Tried jump starting but was complete dead.Took to the garage they replaced with new battery and next day same issue wont start.Since battery was new it start immediately with another car booster.Went back to garage they tested alternator was ok and they changed spark plugs.was going good till yesterday again parked in parking lot and after 10 minutes wont start.same issue start again.I thought must be car remote autostarter .Turned off car remote autostarter and worked for 1 day.Today again morning started like normal when to drop my kid at school.Turned off car and in 5 minutes turned on back again and wont start.surprise that battery drains in like 1 -2 minutes and with booster car with another car start like in 5 seconds.
Cannot figure out what the issue is.Already spent like $600 .
Please help.

When you say won't start, just what does it do?

Does it crank over , but will not start running?
Does it sound like it wants to start but will not?
Does it just click when you go to start it?
Please be as specific as you can, that info is necessary in order to have some idea where to look.

If ,,,,,The jumper cables are being applied to the vehicle at the battery and the engine starts, the only difference is the connections at the vehicles battery are made at the cable end and then power is able to go to the vehicle. It would seem the vehicle's battery is not able to send the required power to the cables to go to the vehicle.

That is one perspective.

The other is,,,,,,,,,,,,if there is a poor connection where the battery cable attaches to the vehicle, (Positive and or ground) , the jumper battery provides the extra power to overcome the poor connection and the vehicle starts.Now we have some idea of where to look. Remember,,,looking at the connections does NOTHING ! They need to be removed , cleaned and reinstalled. A good part of the time it involves the ground cable connection which often gets overlooked.
