Where can you get these for $.25? That's cheap, even Sam's or Costco have them for more than $1/each.

Vegas or Alanta!!!???

Not worth the $300 in gas!

$1 is warm.

The Meijer turn in a burned out incandescent for a new CFL for free was HOT!

I have these same floods in my kitchen. They're nice in the morning when you're making coffee half-asleep, but go full flamethrower after a minute or so. But I like 15w vs. 65w R30. I tried fluorescent globes in the bath, but the warmup time killed the deal there.

Wow, I must have missed that. When did Meijer run that promo? What state? I don't recall seeing anything for the Meijers in the Detroit area.

Reviews said:I have replaced several of my standard bulbs with bright effects bulbs and have had the same problem like everyone else. Got up the other day and turned the light on and it blink two times and then caught fire.

Hahahaha, sounds like Lowe's is having a real FIRE SALE on these!

Wow... 75 bucks to ship a tiny 98 cent lightbulb? But if I got up to 99 bucks (aka over 100 lightbulbs) then it would only be 4.99 shipping... how does this make sense.

I picked up 4 today. I bought them along with a cheap plant, used the $10 off a plant coupon posted elsewhere, but the $10 was taken off the entire order so these were free.

Update: Some stores are refuting the coupon and the Lowes computer system marked it expired as of yesterday. If you live near a store where people are abusing the coupon you may not have any luck, otherwise just point out that it doesn't expire until the 31st.

Tacoma99 said:I re-lamped with these several years ago and none have gone bad yet....
the 4 new ones I have may never be needed.

A little bit (over) optimistic and I cheer you. All mine from 5-years ago are beginning to burn out now and this deal is the god-send. Who knows, maybe new technology (or smart manufacturing) is in place and this batch will never gone bad :--)

Precisely what is "abusing?" answer: the way you used it...

It looks like these are FEIT bulbs although one reviewer said otherwise. I suggest you spend a little more and go with Sylvania (which Lowes did carry,probably still do) or GE's version. You can get the GE's at WalMart and Target and prices have dropped quite a bit on them.
