I still have a few incandescent floods in the ceiling of the house here in the Seattle area and I'll replace them with LED's as they burn out. Costco has some great deals with rebates that cut the price by more than half here. Virtually all of the PUD's in Washington State and Puget Sound Energy offer large rebates right at the cash register. Bought a 3 pack of 40 watt equivalent LED bulbs for about $7 at Costco about three weeks ago. Nice color temp, very close to an incandescent. Measured the power consumption with my KillaWatt meter and it came out to about 6 watts! The only incandescent that I've bought in the last 4 or 5 years was to replace the burned out bulb in the oven.
