\t\t\t\tHave you checked the energy use of your lightbulbs lately? I bet you’d be surprised to find you could be saving LOADS on electricity with the right brand. (Plus, you could earn a Cleaning Up<\/a> merit badge:)<\/p>\n

I am head-over-heels for this Philips brand of lightbulb B-E-C-A-U-S-E I have tried and tried to like fluorescent bulbs but I just can’t get used to them. I have soooooooo mourned the loss of incandescent bulbs. Guess what? This one COMPLETELY lights like an incandescent. Once it’s turned on, you can’t tell the difference. Wow.\u00a0When I first discovered it\u2014talk about exorbitant. One BULB was around $100 dollars. Like any price-minded shopper, I have been keeping my nose to the ground waiting for a price-drop. Last week, it happened. And I brought three of them home.<\/p>\n

I\u00a0found them for\u00a0$25 each at my local lighting store. This bulb is so way cool because it’s estimated to have a lifespan of 22.8 years at a rate of being on 3 hours a day.<\/p>\n

Some of the perks are:<\/p>\n

~Superior life and low energy consumption
\n~Supplies warm white light
\n~Discharges virtually no UV\/IR light in the beam
\n~Emits virtually no heat\u00a0and will not fade colors
\n~Contains no mercury<\/p>\n

Totally worth the money! You can purchase one (or more!)\u00a0on Amazon<\/a>\u00a0or check with your local lighting store like I did.<\/p>\n
