Re: How should a team fundraise with the FIRST E-Watt Saver LED Bulbs?

Sell them on the benefits. Honestly $20.00 is a bargain just do the math. Add to that the environmental impact it is a win for everyone. I think the reality is that the program will start with family and friends then slowly expand from there.

I was in a store recently that is selling LED light bulbs for $30.00 each. Seems like a hard sell sitting on the shelf next to compact flourescents for $4-6 each but they are out there. They are selling the benefits including the lifetime cost savings.
