My husband works at a Lowe's store, and they are getting ready to discount the incandescent light bulbs. I told him to stock up on them, I totally hate the CFLs because of the warm-up period and the horrid light they throw.............. Just call me old-fashioned, I don't care if the CFLs last 20+ years (and who is going to save the packaging and the receipt to prove it????????????), I just prefer the "regular" light bulbs.
