Heidi,
Try homedepot.com and see if they carry it online. I worked for Home Depot while in college. Sometimes when a store stops carrying something, it's a decision made at the regional office. However, other regions may still carry the product(s), and they may still sell them on the website.

Also, ask someone at the special service desk if the bulbs have actually been discontinued, they may be able to tell you if another store has them or even get them transfered to your local store.

To: [log in to unmask]

In an effort to streamline things and possibly save money as well as time, I’m looking for a source to order light bulbs for our track lighting systems in bulk.

One of the track lighting systems in our museum takes the large 65w spots which we used to get at Home Depot. Unfortunately they have decided not to carry spot lights anymore – a mystery to me but I’m not versed in retail hardware sales and marketing strategies. What do others on the list do for supplying bulbs for their museums?
