And you may be asking, why buy energy-efficient bulbs if my old incandescents are going strong? "Incandescent bulbs are really only cheap if you never turn them on. They cost about $8 a year to power. And that's compared with only a $1.70 for an LED or [compact fluorescent light bulbs]," said expert Celia Kuperszmid Lehrman. Most CFLs cost under $3.
