How many...
How many bulbs does it take to change a lightbulb? Answer, four if they're
"Wilko extra value 100W pearl light bulbs".  I needed a 100W bulb in my bathroom, shaving was getting tricky under a dull 40W glow. So picture my delight when, after a special trip to Wilkinsons, i found a pack of four for less than a pound! Unfortunately the excitement did not last long. 5 days, and about 3 hours of use and ping, first one went. New one in, next day its gone. I'm currently on number 3 bulb of 4 but at the rate of 2 a week it's gonna end up costing me £30 over the year just to shower in the light! That kind of cash could buy me tyres with some tread on them... Tom's Top Tip: "buy cheap? - buy twice" |

we changed most of ours to energy saving ones. Its not liek the old ones that took 29 mins to heat up a bit, most flicker on like a tube light and are very bright.
Cheap as well from asda.
