Bulb Hoarders Prepare for Phase Out

USA Today says one third of Americans plan to stock up on 40 and 60 watt incandescent light bulbs before they are phased out. Come January 1st, the bulbs will no longer be made in or imported to the U.S. Some suppliers say they are stocking up now to accommodate customers who plan to hoard bulbs rather than switch to more energy efficient alternatives.
