Someone gave me a very nice floor lamp & recommended LED bulbs. I had first used regular ones & they instantly heated it up scarily. So I stopped by the Brickman. I needed 2 but they were $4.99 so I figured I'd buy one & see how it did before committing myself to 2. Five bucks for a light bulb! Ha ha the joke was on me. When I checked out, it turns out that the bulb was actually $14.99. I paid 16 dollars for one light bulb. It's got a 5-year warranty & supposedly will last 22 years so I suppose it's "worth it" but but but....
Apparently you can buy those bulbs for a quarter of that price online so I suppose the instant gratification is what I paid for.
