Today I went to get some light bulbs. I can not get over the price!!!! Talk about hidden taxation!!!! I want some of the traditional 60, 75 and 100 watt bulbs. If you can find them at all, they have trippled in price and they aren't fully up to par. For instance, the 100 watt bulbs are now 92 watts. The 60 watt bulbs are now 52 watts. The store was filled with those new mercury filled screwy bulbs but now they have covers on them so they look more traditional but are still ugly. I have some antique lamps that take 40 watt bulbs and those new screwy looking bulbs look terrible and are so heavy that the lamps are easy to tip over. I am going to have to buy cases of the right kind of bulbs just in case the stores are no longer going to carry them. I think a few stores still have some.
