Default $5 Desk Lamp (suitable for LED) sale ends soon

Iris 1-Light Desk Lamp-HDY0581AN-IR at The Home Depot

The sale is over tomorrow actually..

(in Oyster).

I'm using these with 40W (actually 7w) LED blubs and they run nice and cool.
They seem to be all metal and of good quality for the price. (with free shipping).

Can't be shipped to the lefty coast, since it has the regular screw-in socket,
that can accept the dreaded 60 watt incandescent blub.
(Which I assume is no longer legal in CA)..

Anyways, I've got two running and one more on the way..
Plus, I've ordered a couple as gifts.. (cheap gifts)!

These desk lamps are no longer on sale..
Now they $9.88 /EA-Each. But, you can still get Free Shipping.. With a $45 order!!

I'm using these LEDs in mine, Shop Utilitech 40-Watt Equivalent Indoor Soft White LED Light Bulb at Lowes.com
so, I ordered some for my Mom to use in the two cheapie HomeDepot desk lamps I sent her.. (She loved them BTY)!

Funny, the LED bulbs cost more than twice the price of the desk lamps!
It's amazing how paying $12 for a light bulb somehow seems like a reasonable price..
Must be a sign of old age..
