Before this I bought 15 from IKEA in Emeryville, CA and that's 3 for $4.50 still cheap but 99cents store is really incredible, I think they should put a HUGE banner in front of their store to promote it, I bet people will rush in and buy it. My electric bill reduce almost $60.00 a month since last year Feb 2006 I live in Walnut Creek, CA, recently (Jan 07) I bought 2 Sylvania CFL 23 W (for 100W replacement) in 99cents store for just you guess it - $0.99 And that’s less than $0.50 each and probably same price as the regular light bulb.

In California with electricity cost 32 cents per KW over your baseline. These lights will pay for themselves after only 60 hours of use.

Once they get around the limitations (no completely enclosed bulbs, no bulbs on dimmer switches) I'll be more inclined to place them throughout my house. As it is, they're everywhere they can be.

I also like the color of their light compared to the incandescents...seem a lot whiter.
