Yep. We had a dollar store close down in town, 1/2 off everything so I bought every incandescent pack they had. I love dimmers in my house, and while I’ve only had ONE dimmable CFL, it didn’t work very well, and died after a year. Perhaps less.
Looking into the dimmable LEDs is frighteningly expensive. I want BRIGHT, and I want a bunch of ‘em. Not happening for a while. I have non-dimmable CFL 100w replacements, and I”m going to have to rely on them to get me through a few years until the LED’s come down in price.
Damn tyrants.
I just bought 10 - 24 packs of Sylvania (American made) 60 Watt 130 v bulbs at Amazon for a cost of 40.63 cents per bulb. Free shipping brought this cost down to what it is.

The reviews for this particular bulb are just so so but I am prepared for the shrinkage at that cost.
The Fed gov SUCKS ass!!!
