energy saving light bulbs

jmorrisey

Remember getting a bunch of these very cheap few years ago but havent seen many deals on them lately. Just moved into a house with loads of light fittings and wondering if anyone knows of any bargains around at the moment....

Thanks in advance

I've also previously bought off http://www.futureled.ie/ Seemed like a good guy, if I hadn't of been going to IKEA for something else would have gone with him again... a little sorry I didn't TBH.

Probably philips genie bulbs they were subsidised by the uk tax payer, your best be now is probably the like of heatons that do the osram duluxstar bulbs for a euro or two.

Screwfix have recently started an Irish site, they have been in the UK for ages
but have a pack of 6 LED GU10 for €25, so just over €4 each.
Seeing as how much cheaper LED are to run, seems good value

Yes most were subsidized by power companies to offset their emissions, this scheme is no longer available in the UK and prices have jumped back up. Woodies have a 3 pack for €11
