That's nice but personally don't really believe it as HD didn't have much at all for 60W equivalents last time I checked, the ones they did have where $40+ and IMO still dimmer than the CF 60W equivalent. However that is my personal opinion but I still would like to see a link to the 60W for $19 cause maybe I missed something last time. Still $19 for one light bulb is a decent amount, really it's not going to save you money.

For the price difference, I'll take a chance with mercury poisoning
