Here's a good one. I only need the guts for a push through light socket and HD has a whole socket for 3.48.
3.48! It ought to be 75c, maybe 1.40 allowing for inflation.So i go to Amazon, and trusty Amazon will sell me just the guts.
How much?
$8.69 by Cooper $4.40 by Leviton
Maybe it's a wierd thing where the whole thing costs less than part of it.
$5.00 by GE
So I guess 3.48 is not so bad.
