Just today when I started my car and I tried to turn the radio on, the car died. Then, I tried to restart the car to no avail, but there was a clicking noise on the passenger side and I had no power what so ever. I got the car running a few moments later only to pull out of the parking spot, drive 100ft and it die on me, no ding or nothing, just die. Again, no power what so ever and had to wait a few moments for it to start again. I am not sure if this has anything to do with it, but rarely my gauges jump around on my car when I start it up. And as the gas gets low, any sloshing of the gas causes the car to sputter and die, but it starts right back up. Any ideas?

I'd have to make sure the battery has a full charge. All connections to and from the battery, clean and tight. Also, check for voltage at battery junction block, where applicable.
