It's funny. CFL's were invented to save enery. I've had horrible results
with the floods. The longest lasting being 8 month. I've saved the defective
ones for a trip to the dump. However, the dump is over 20 miles each way.
With gas at 3.44 a gallon, what am I saving by using CFL's?

Buy them at HD, save the reciept there is their warranty, ...
... Im sure defects happen so keep them and return them.

If it weren't 65 miles to nearest I might consider it...

With a 9 yr warranty stated on the package it might be worth it
