Good Deal on Light Bulbs?

**Superfreak3** · 06-12-2008, 09:21 AM

Hi all,

I use some blowmolds in my display and find that 25 watt bulbs work fine. I haven't tried 15 watt bulbs, but they would probably work too.

My question is, does anyone know where I can get a bulk of 20-25 bulbs at a decent price? I've scoured the local dollar stores, but they have nothing less than 40 watt bulbs. Lowes and HD carry them for almost $3 for a pair.

The lowest I've found so far is OnBulb.com @ .50 per bulb with a flat shipping rate of something like $6.

Any info is appreciated!

Thanks!

I bought a 12-pack of them at Sam's Club a while back. Unfortunately, I don't remember the price, but it seemed reasonable at the time.

I'll check that out.

I was just at Big Lots looking for spotlight holders (didn't find any) and forgot to look there for the bulbs!

Not sure if you have them where you live , but you can get both , the spot light holders , and 15 watt lights at MENARDS .

Menards is a Midwest chain. EauClair Wi. based. Mn, Ia, Wi, Il, In, Nd, SD and Mo I think is the limits. Electrical and builing materials they beat Home Depot and Lowes hands down. I did get hosed on my 6' exttension cords, $1.24 and I know they were $.99 last Christmas. Oh and they have a lot of lights too. We got Fleet Farm too. They unload lights after Christmas. I paid $.89 for 100 light strings and $7.99 for animated deer. Rope lights for a couple bucks.

Man we have nothing around here in the eastern part of PA like that. I guess Home Depot and Lowes after Christmas sales are OK for that stuff.

This year I will check Big Lots after Christmas though. My parents bought me 21 2' 20 light walkway trees for something like $7.

Yeah ... following ANY of the rivers up in this part of Iowa ( Cedar Rapids is currently under Federal Emergency and same with Waterloo and some smaller towns ) and you "might" find your ArK ( ya never know what these farm boys might do or build ... after all , remember - "if you build it , they will come" and guess what ... its built , and not that far away from me either - )

But , this flooding going on , is no joking matter .
