I really do not like when lights in my house go out. It always seems to happen at the most inopportune times, when I won’t have time to go to the hardware store for a couple of days at least. This results in having to live in partial darkness – not ideal!
However, it’s not that bad when the lights go out if I have extra lightbulbs around. Because bulbs often come in packs, this happens sometimes. And there are few better feelings that the relief you realize you do not have to add going to the hardware store to your to-do list.
What’s my point here? My point is that 4-packs of Philips lightbulbs are currently 75 percent off. And even if you don’t need lightbulbs right now, you will at some point. Might as well load up while you can.

Philips 433557 23W 100-watt T2 Twister 6500K CFL Light Bulb, 4-Pack on sale for $9.94
These bulbs are a daylight color. I’ll let verified purchaser Scott W. explain what you’re getting with these in his 5-star review titled “Great “daylight” color, same size as incandescent”:
Some people dislike the “daylight” 6500k color temp, but it is EXACTLY what I wanted in my shop.
They provide nice, even, bright light. They do start at slightly less than full brightness, perhaps 90%, and gradually get to 100% in about 30-45 seconds.
I originally bought some 100w equivalent (19w) Cree 5000k LED bulbs. Light output and color are comparable with these 23W CFL bulbs. The LEDs are 100% instant-on, are rated to last a about 2.5 times as long, use slightly less wattage, and are a little over four times as expensive.
Aside from the great output and daylight color, the real advantage of these CFL bulbs is their size/shape: They are almost exactly the same size as a standard incandescent bulb, 4-1/4″ from base to top and 2-3/8″ diameter. The 19w Cree LEDs were 5″ from base to top, and 2-5/8″ in diameter, which makes them too large for some fixtures. These Phillips CFLs fit perfectly in fixtures designed for standard incandescent bulbs.
It’s no wonder these lightbulbs are a #1 bestseller.
