[cris]

Just tought i would let everyone know that woolies has good 52L tubs with good lids for about $10.
I got mine at indooroopilly but im sure most stores will have them. The brand is "starmaid".
They also had 60watt screw reflector globes 2 for $4.50.

R-80 are a reflector bulb.The shape is different to your normal candesant bulb and slightly larger.

Bunnings is always a winner in the plastic tub department, and globes. See the new 'long life' phillips screw bulbs? Bought a few and theyve so far lasted longer then the standard poo.

I tried spaying some bulbs with engine enamel after someone said thats what they do for night bulbs. Works a treat. I picked up a pack of ten bulbs for $4 and a can of paint for $12. You can spray them so no light comes through at all, Cheaper than ceramics. Good idea who ever it was.

These tubs are great, Woolworths in NSW has them on special this week for $9.90 instead of $18 so they are a big saving.
