Can you beat the price?

I ordered two new CFL bulbs today, from:
CHEAP CFLS < a link

I paid $29.95 each, for 200 watt bulbs, and they were $68 with shipping:

Shipping Status Qty Item Price Not yet shipped 2CF-200 - 200w Fluorescent $59.98 Shipping & Handling (Continental U.S.) :$8.40 Tax (GA) :$0.00 Total:$68.38

I found 65 and 68 watt CFLs at Lowes and Home Depot for $16.95 each, regualr sockets or moguls.

Can anyone find cheaper CFLs anywhere? any wattage?


Look here: 200 watt CFL, $78 < NOT cheap!!! I paid less than half of that.

Walmart has cheap Clamp Reflectors with regular size sockets, for $9.
Lowes and Homew Depot have the Heavy Duty ones for $11 or $12 each.

Lowes, Walmart, Home Depot:



and get one of these extensions:

and if you want to add two 42 watt lights to a reflector, you get a Y spliter.

Available in black or cream colored at Walmart, Lowes, and Home Depot, about $1.69 to $1.99.
Used to put two 42 watt CFLS in one Reflector.
