I will have to buy them in Nevada
Wow, drive-in movies, pinball machines and now the bulb… getting old
In another decade, we will see Gas Cars extinct…
I said goodbye, in 2013, to incandescent as well as CFL. Even Christmas Lights/Decorations are LEDs !
Maybe even GARAGES!!!
I see those bulbs by the hundreds in the flea market. Nobody wants them anymore.
Now, for being so discriminatory, I had a box of some bulbs in that category. I put it down while I was Ebaying to see how much they were worth, and you know the law, you drop anything any other guy can grab it. I let go of $1K. I cried all day long, the guy paid $4 for the bunch. 
Now, is not the market. Later, may be…
Already changed all bulbs to LED bulbs.
Outdoor pathway and decorative lights are LED bulbs driven by solar panels.
Donated all incandescent and compact fluorescent bulbs… these bulbs consume too much energy or not instant on.
I’ve converted virtually every heavily used fixture in my home to LED. I’ve learned an awful lot about lighting - wattage vs lumens, color temperatures, etc. in doing so.
I’ve ended up with a cabinet full of incandescent bulbs and compact fluorescents over the last four years of doing this, plus collecting some from relatives who were moving and no longer needed their own stash.
I am hanging onto them because:
-
I don’t like to waste and they still work and,
-
because they are slowly becoming collectible and gaining in value. Particularly the 100W bulb incandescent.
It’s like the infamous episode of Seinfeld about the black market for full flow shower heads. 
They may have value in Mexico…
I remember when full flush toilets were banned. Everyone would go to Canada to buy toilets for their home.
I listen to KGO radio all the time when I am driving. Yesterday I heard a lady saying that an LED bulb saves you good chuck of money, in the $ thousands in a period of 10 years, times as many bulbs you replace.
As we see, your energy bill is not going down any time soon. So, using LED and turning your home into an energy efficient home eventually will give you a good ROI in your investment. You can’t save money if you buy an LED bulb while your insulation, your HVAC and your windows are so old.
Energy efficiency is the key baby!
One of the reasons you need to change your bulbs to LED.
Soon, my electricity rates will be increased in CA because they can’t get enough revenue due to lower electricity rates! 
For those who are wondering: “Yes this has happened to water bills in Fremont, where the bills increased because of less water use. There was no word on reducing costs”.
No economy of scale means higher cost of producing 1 unit 
Cost of producing 1 unit of water/electricity = Overheads/ total units used + variable cost
For most intent and purposes, variable cost can be considered as constant per unit.
Overheads/ total units used is inversely proportional to total units used i.e. lower if more units used, higher if less units used.
So for capital intensive or high overhead operations such producing water/ electricity, high tech gadgets, etc, the more units produced the lower the unit cost. Of course, provided no need for a new factory, new equipment, etc.
Manpower costs need to be made variable like private sector
Employee benefits are either on or off, all or nothing. If employees only work 1 day a week how do you give them health coverage? Only cover them 20%? That’s one reason why employer based health coverage is so nutty.
Number of employees are generally constant or increasing unlike the private sector.
I agree, rest of the developed world seems to be doing reasonably well with less per capita spending with better outputs. However, Whole separate topic.
