What can I say about the bright sticks? I ordered several of these GE 12257 Bright stick instant fluorescent lighting, 25 tube, 6-ft. cord, because I use them in my kitchen under the overhead cabinets. The price is definitely right, much cheaper than full price. They arrived in fine shape although there was a bit less packing material in the box than I would have liked. Apparently it was adequate.

I've used these lamps as a reading light over my bed for years - they last about 5 years, and when the last one ran out I was recuperating at home from surgery and dreaded having no reading light and not being able to go out and buy one. Actually you can't buy these in the stores, and this was the second time I've bought one over the Internet - it worked out perfectly again - item well packed, too!
