Home Depot Has a Bright Idea!

Home Depot became the first national chain to accept expired, unbroken CFL bulbs. Simply bring the bulbs in to your local Home Depot and pass them over the counter to a store associate. For citizens of Fredericksburg, your closest Home Depot is in Kerrville, but on trips to San Antonio, you can stop in at the stores in Boerne and Dripping Springs.
