The money you save at Wal Mart just comes at the economies expense...
People get fired up about Illegals coming into America and taking jobs but nobody complains about all the American jobs Wal Mart has forced oversea's to accomodate those low prices...
That's part of the high cost of Wal Marts low prices..believe me I've worked in their distribution division for a decade and know to much inside dirt about their inner workings to continue spending my money there, even w/ an associate discount but that's just my $.02...
I find deals on cfls at rite aid, lowes, home depot, at lowes the other day they had on the clearence table 23w 6500k cfls for $2 each but I didn't buy any...kickin myself in the ass now

I know that not everyone has a Costco nearby or is a member but they always have great deals on CFL's. You can usually get
the 65W Floodlight (6500K)for $20 and if you live in Northern CA most CFL's in Costco are 50% off from PG&E. That's a 65W CFL for $10, with a built in refrlctor, all you need to do is wire on a plug. The 42W CFL's were either 1 or 2 for $5 I can't remember which.
