Seconding Philips. At HomeDepot the cheapest Philips bulbs are about 2.75 CAD each compared to 0.85 CAD each for the ecosmart and failure rates is under 1/5 the cheap brand for me. (Diabolically, the ecosmarts are cheapest when bought individually.) Philips' dimmables are closer to $6 each but my dimmer switch lights use them and I like them a lot. My other lamps use El Cheapo brand because changing them out is quite easy.
