Good news for people who have invested in those screwy lightbulbs, CFL… which lasts eons longer than the regular lightbulbs. You can take your used ones and dispose of them in the Ikea store nearest you.

For those who have been hesitant to buy one because of disposal issues (CFL contain trace amount of Mercury so shouldn’t be thrown out with your trash.) there’s no worries now.

Oh, and the CFL’s I bought couple of months ago are still going strong. They are totally growing on me.
