    Comments about Philips Lighting Company 40 Watt, 48 Inch T12 Cool White Fluorescent Bulb:

    we were happy to find these as they are getting harder to get and for much less than our local hardware store. they last for many years.
    for free shipping we had to get 3 boxes of 10 but they will be used as we have 6 fixtures that use these bulbs. Bulbs.com had them double packed so no breakage and they were delivered within 1 week as opposed to 3 weeks some place else.
