So whatever you might save in electric energy you more than waste in driving these bulbs to a recycle center. Good Luck with that!<br /> Shaun Cnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5285189315308720995.post-39103138940492613192012-04-10T09:44:21.240-04:002012-04-10T09:44:21.240-04:00I would definitely be ranting!

I didn't know it had already affected anything!! We're still using the old candle shaped bulbs in our dining room. I'm not sure when he bought some last, but I didn't think it had been that long ago. I'll have to ask!Letitianoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5285189315308720995.post-49189835631955697562012-04-10T09:03:05.567-04:002012-04-10T09:03:05.567-04:00The new lightbulbs are very toxic and dangerous if...The new lightbulbs are very toxic and dangerous if they break, too. Whereas the old ones, all you had to worry about was the glass!<br /><br />I didn't realize the smaller based bulbs were getting changed out, too. I can still get the incandescents here. Now I'm starting to get worried.....Jenniferhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18366285842825206587noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5285189315308720995.post-17447338890114010602012-04-10T08:59:02.779-04:002012-04-10T08:59:02.779-04:00I have similar candle style ones at my house and h...I have similar candle style ones at my house and have had good luck finding them at dollar general (or other dollar stores) clean the shelves!!Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03198886217620923157noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5285189315308720995.post-62928833411464980842012-04-10T08:31:09.492-04:002012-04-10T08:31:09.492-04:00Really!
