never buy lightbulbs in a store, buy them online from a lightbulb store.
You can get bulbs that last 5 times longer for LESS money than the crap they sell at stores.
Can you provide a link?
Which online store do you use? Lighting.com or ?
Any online lightbulb sources you recommend?
At Walmart for example right now you can buy a standard bulb for around $2.15 that lasts 1,500 hours
(supposedly long life) lol
OR you can go to an online site like 1000bulbs.com and get a bulb of the same wattage for $1.78 that lasts for 20,000 hours!!!!
hm... 1,500 hours or 20,000 hours for less money... tuff choice!
Seriously? How stupid is it that our lives are so complicated by BS government regs that even buying a reasonably-priced light bulb requires research and persistent
where do you buy them online that are better quality like that?
