Phillips energy saving bulbs 3 for 99p

I saw these today in Sainsburys, but the offer isn't showing up on mysupermarket.com and isn't very prominent on the Sainsburys site either, which is a pity because it's a good offer.

I have seen other offers for more bulbs for less this week, but I think the three Phillips bulbs for 99p is a better offer. I know the brand well, I use a lot of them at home. They've all lasted a long time and worked well. These ones are expected to last 10 years.

Anyway, offer ends 25/11

    I did see the Tesco offer, but I can't comment on the bulbs as I don't own any of this brand.

    I also suspect the bulbs are made in China, so we wouldn't buy them as there is a good selection of energy saving bulbs available made here in Europe. Phillips (Poland) and Megaman (Germany) are the two main European brands. There's no good reason to import them all the way from China, and because they're made in the EU I feel more confident about the environmental regulations on the manufacturing plant, as well as the safety of the workers and their pay.
